STTR Phase I: Safety-Centric Analysis and Runtime Monitoring for Plug-and-Play Medical Suites

这一小型企业技术转移研究(STTR)第一阶段研究项目建议增强医疗领域使用的一套现有建模、分析、设计和监控工具，以便可以从即插即用医疗设备组装安全可靠的系统。该项目解决了在医疗设备基础上建立医疗系统的重要问题。现有的工具集借鉴了多个领域的理论，目标是将设计和评估过程形式化，对于提供医疗设备构建的系统的量化分析非常重要。该项目可能会影响医疗设备即插即用标准。通过为医疗系统的设计和分析提供工具，该项目有可能提高此类设备的质量，并可能扩大此类系统的开发。

This Small Business Technology Transfer Research (STTR) Phase I research project proposes the enhancement of an existing set of modeling, analysis, design, and monitoring tools for use in the medical domain so that safe, reliable systems can be assembled from plug-and-play medical devices. This project addresses important problems in building medical systems out of medical devices. The existing toolset which draws upon theory in several fields with the goal of formalizing the design and evaluation process, is important for providing quantitative analysis of systems built from medical devices.This project has the potential to impact the medical device plug-and-play standard. By providing tools for the design and analysis of medical systems, the project has the potential to improve the quality of such devices and perhaps expand the development of such systems.
