Abstract

Effective use of heterogeneous, distributedinformation in a coherent, integrated fashion has longbeen a 'holy grail'. The UK Health and Social caredomain is an example where a global view is needed tofacilitate decision making, whilst having ethical and legalconcerns. The IBHIS project aims to provide anintegrated broker that enables coherent use of a set ofdistributed, heterogeneous data sources, whilst ensuringtrustworthiness and audit. This paper presents a service-orientedfederated architecture for the IBHIS broker.
