Abstract
ARCHIMED is a Network of Integrated Information Systems (NIIS). This novel concept of hospital information system has a major advantage over the curre ntly used distributed systems. The normalized representation structure of i ts databases enable its Navigators to reach simultaneously not only the dat a coming from different hospital departments, laboratories, and other hospi tal facilities, but also the data from different hospitals associated in th e network.
