Identify a clinical informatics problem in your practice area in need of change.

want to make reference to EPIC which is my electronic system
In your current practice area identify the methodology(ies) you have observed in the systems development life cycle: waterfall rapid prototyping/rapid application development object-oriented system development and/or dynamic system development method. Choose one of the systems and apply it to the current system that you are using. Answer the following:
1) Have any of above models been used in your practice area? 2) Have they been effective for planning and implementing new systems? Why or why not?
3) What barriers have prevented successful implementation?
4) Identify a clinical informatics problem in your practice area in need of change.
5) What recommendations would you make?
6) How would you go about implementing this change?
2-3 pages APA format not including title page. Read information below to see which system applies to you.
When you think about how systems are implemented they use various methods to set up their systems. The first method the waterfall follows the model shown below.

According to Royce a famous computer scientist original waterfall model had the following phases in this order:
1.Requirements specification resulting in the product requirements document
2.Design resulting in the software architecture
3.Construction (implementation or coding) resulting in the actual software
4.Integration
5.Testing and debugging
6.Installation
7.Maintenance
As you think about this model talk about how the systems you currently use might apply to this model understanding that as one moves thru each phase they can only proceed when its preceding phase is reviewed and verified
The RAD (rapid application development) is a model based on the concept that higher-quality products can be developed faster through more expedient processes such as early prototyping reusing software components and less formality in team communications. This model works at a higher level has more urgent needs. Does this model apply to your current system.
This model uses a combination of systems development life cycle and object-oriented modeling and programming.
Object-oriented modeling
makes an effort to represent real world objects
modeling the real world entities or things (e.g. hospital patient account nurse) into abstract computer software objects.
All of the interactions or exchanges take place between or among the objects.
Is this system similar to the one you are currently using?
High level of user input and involvement.
Repetitive examination that enhances detail and improves accuracy.
Three phases:
1. preproject
2. project life cycle (feasibility and business studies functional model iteration design and build iteration and implementation)
3. postproject.
Does this system coincide with the current system that you are using?
