Abstract:
This paper describes the medical Decision Support System (DSS) designed in the framework of the Bravehealth (BVH) project. The DSS is the heart of the data processing performed in Bravehealth, and it is aimed at enriching the medical experience to support the doctors in the decision-making processes. The paper focuses on the flexible and effective DSS architecture placed at a Remote Server side. Moreover, a Data Mining prototype algorithm, supported by the architecture, is proposed, along with encouraging test results.
