Abstract
Extending unique identification to non-physical objects (data, information, decisions, knowledge) is a challenging problem in systems engineering. The tools and technologies available for naming physical objects may soon prove to be inadequate. In addition, the current thinking about unique identification may soon seem to be insufficient. What's next?
Description
Is there a tool or mechanism to capture and uniquely identify a decision made by a healthcare professional? What if this decision happens to become a fulcrum for the next decision that must be made about the patient but in a different country? Convergence of concepts outlined in these two presentations makes an attempt to propose a temporary solution.
