    Late last year (October-ish) I began working on a way to specify the software architecture of applications (apps) that run on medical application platforms (MAPs).  The specification takes the form of a subset of the Architecture Analysis and Description Language (AADL) and some supporting tooling — namely a plugin for OSATE2 (an Eclipse distribution which…

    I'm writing a report which will eventually become the introduction to my Master's thesis.  It's on existing medical workflow technologies, including Little-JIL.  I wrote the rough draft back in January, and am now hammering away on making the revisions my advisor suggested (try and ignore the several month turnaround :D).  Little-JIL has a number of…
