In Brazil, information systems have been used to support government activities, such as public social and health care. For instance, SIGS is a web information system for management of social programs. Another example of information system is e-SUS for health care data management. Considering that crossing data from social and health care may be useful in decision-making for both areas, the SIGS-S project was proposed. It consists of a web appli- cation and a mobile application for social and health care data management. SIGS-S Web is a web application composed by two subsystems, SIGS-S Web So- cial, resulting of the reengineering of SIGS, and SIGS-S Web Saúde, inspired by data forms from e-SUS. SIGS-S Mobile Saúde is a mobile application to support health data collection. Processes ProFap and ProFap-R were used during their development. As a result, both web and mobile applications, as well as web services to support cross-application data exchange, were developed. Furthermore, it was prepared the documentation for both applications to help future software maintenance. Both applications were developed and validated with participation of stakeholders (health users and government managers).

Data in the cloud is leading to the more interest for cyber attackers. These days’ attackers are concentrating more on Health care data. Through data mining performed on health care data Industries are making Business out of it. These changes are affecting the treatment process for many people so careful data processing is required. Breaking these data security leads to many consequences for health care organizations. After braking security computation of private data can be performed. By data storing and running of computation on a sensitive data can be possible by decentralization through peer to peer network. Instead of using the centralized architecture by decentralization the attacks can be reduced. Different security algorithms have been considered. For decentralization we are using block chain technology. Privacy, security and integrity can be achieved by this block chain technology. Many solutions have been discussed to assure the privacy and security for Health care organizations somehow failed to address this problem. Many cryptographic functions can be used for attaining privacy of data. Pseudonymity is the main concept we can use to preserve the health care means preserving data by disclosing true identity legally.

Information system is one of the most important business supports in organizations. Web-based applications become an appropriate solution to overcome the dynamically changing environment among different units in an organization. Model-View-Controller (MVC) is a well-known design pattern in web-based application development due to the separation of an application into several parts, hence it is easy to reuse and maintain. However, such design pattern requires improvements since the information system handles business process choreography and integration between application. Therefore, modifying the interaction of object of class in a design pattern become a challenging problem. In this paper, an application framework based on Model-CollectionService-Controller-Presenter (MCCP) design pattern, which is a modification of an MVC, was proposed. The proposed framework allows multiple different applications to run and provides inter-application data exchange mechanisms to improve the data communication process between applications. Several performance comparisons with another popular web application framework are also presented.

The main objective of this paper is to outline a Cloud Computing based Healthcare Information System that helps bridge the gap between various hospitals, patients and clinics by creating a central hub of patient details and health care history that is accessible via two interfaces- either the mobile app or the web application.

BACKGROUND There are several challenges such as information silos and lack of interoperability with the current electronic medical record (EMR) infrastructure in the Canadian health care system. These challenges can be alleviated by implementing a blockchain-based health care data management solution. OBJECTIVE This study aims to provide a detailed overview of the current health data management infrastructure in British Columbia for identifying some of the gaps and inefficiencies in the Canadian health care data management system. We explored whether blockchain is a viable option for bridging the existing gaps in EMR solutions in British Columbia’s health care system. METHODS We constructed the British Columbia health care data infrastructure and health information flow based on publicly available information and in partnership with an industry expert familiar with the health systems information technology network of British Columbia’s Provincial Health Services Authorities. Information flow gaps, inconsistencies, and inefficiencies were the target of our analyses. RESULTS We found that hospitals and clinics have several choices for managing electronic records of health care information, such as different EMR software or cloud-based data management, and that the system development, implementation, and operations for EMRs are carried out by the private sector. As of 2013, EMR adoption in British Columbia was at 80% across all hospitals and the process of entering medical information into EMR systems in British Columbia could have a lag of up to 1 month. During this lag period, disease progression updates are continually written on physical paper charts and not immediately updated in the system, creating a continuous lag period and increasing the probability of errors and disjointed notes. The current major stumbling block for health care data management is interoperability resulting from the use of a wide range of unique information systems by different health care facilities. CONCLUSIONS Our analysis of British Columbia’s health care data management revealed several challenges, including information silos, the potential for medical errors, the general unwillingness of parties within the health care system to trust and share data, and the potential for security breaches and operational issues in the current EMR infrastructure. A blockchain-based solution has the highest potential in solving most of the challenges in managing health care data in British Columbia and other Canadian provinces.

Mlatiharjo is a village in Demak District, Central Java province, it has been well-known as an innovative village because of their various innovations especially in high quality (supreme) seed varieties of fruit and rice. In order to support the production and cultivation of those commodities, information management has been employed but still in simple ways and doesn’t have any information system yet, therefore it often causes mistake in their production estimation. It will impact to their sales service of their commodities toward the buyer, particularly the customer. Another problem is Mlatiharjo’s farmer group does not have  any information exchange medium to interact with other business actors who comes from outside their area, whereas those outsider-business actors will buy their product with a higher price. Mlatiharjo’s IbM Program aims to build an Information System which is able to manage the information of Mlatiharjo’s commodities production, especially in farming production. The method employed for developing the system is Prototyping. Meanwhile, the transfer of technology employs mentoring process for the client of program through conducting focus group discussion, workshop dan training. This Commodity Information System is implemented into two kinds of computer application. Firstly, web application that is used for managing the data center and share it to the public who want to capture the information of the mlatiharjo’s product. Secondly, android based mobile application utilized by the farmer who has become a member of cluster-farming group to input the location area mapping data and progress report of production data and also provide a discussion forum among member of the system. The Web Application is built using PHP and the database used MySQL. Mobile Application is implemented using Java Android. As a result, Tani Mahardika Cluster and KSU Citra Kinaraya – Mlatiharjo have a digital-based system to manage their Commodity in order to encourage and strengthen business-production institution through Commodity Information System
