Popis: This paper introduces a method for interactive knowledge testing for a clinical decision support system developed as a part of the Artemis Project. Knowledge within the medical domain is vast and continuously being defined and re-defined. The volume of modern clinical decision support systems that support a flexible and intuitive environment that recognizes this principle is shocking limited. Clinical decision support systems have either been delivered as a package with Electronic Health Records or custom made and delivered along with medical monitoring devices. This has led to a large gap within support systems that are integrated with the entire continuum of care, and therefore limited in the ability to be modified. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate that an environment that is supportive of the ideal interactive can be delivered for a modern clinical decision support system within the Artemis Project. The method for delivering this is through a demonstration using Ptolemy II to simulate real-time components of InfoSphere Streams, and generate the respective Java code. This proof-of-concept paper paves the path for future work in the area of generating direct code that can be executed within Artemis directly.
