What’s in a name?

Presented By

Denis Gagné, CEO and CTO at Trisotech

Names are arbitrary labels. So why do we assign so much meaning to names? In certain context, certain names can create confusion. In others, a name can disambiguate the intended meaning being communicated. In the context of business decisions, the names given to various business concepts play a crucial role in providing meaningful and unambiguous business decisions. This becomes even more important in the context of life critical business decisions such as those made in a healthcare clinical context. Medical information systems need to be able to communicate complex and detailed medical data securely and efficiently. This is obviously a difficult task and requires a profound analysis of the structure and the concepts of medical terminologies.

In this presentation we will explore the use of disambiguated business terms to express decision requirements and decision logic in DMN.
