The development of tailor-made domain-specific modeling languages is sometimes desirable in medical informatics. Naturally, the development of such languages should be guided. The purpose of this article is to introduce a set of requirements for such languages and show their application in analyzing and comparing existing modeling languages.

The paper describes T/Gen, a prototype computer-based tool designed to help maintain the knowledge in a computer-based clinical practice guideline that provides patient-specific recommendations. T/Gen takes as input a set of clinical conditions to which a guideline must react, and allows the user to specify domain-specific constraints as to which combinations of conditions do not make sense or do not need to be exhaustively tested against one another. T/Gen automatically [...]

The prevailing view of medical informatics as a primarily subservient discipline in health care is challenged. Developments in both general informatics and medical informatics are described to identify desirable properties of modeling languages and tools needed to solve key problems in the application field. For progress in medical informatics, it is considered essential to develop far more formal modeling languages, modeling techniques, and tools. A major aim of this development [...]
