Abstract
In this paper the requirements, design, and implementation of a protot ype integrated medical workstation environment are outlined. The aim o f the workstation is to provide user-friendly, task-oriented support f or clinicians, based on existing software and data. The prototype proj ect has been started to investigate the technical possibilities of gra phical user-interfaces, network technology, client-server approaches, and software encapsulation. Experience with the prototype encouraged d iscussion on both the limitations and the essential features for an in tegrated medical workstation.
