描述(改编自申请者？S摘要)：我们发现自己身处一个 深刻变革的时代影响着学术健康的一切活动 科学中心：提供医疗保健，对学员进行持续教育 和从业者，以及基础和应用研究。学院校园是 被重新配置为由学生、教职员工组成的分布式企业 他们既是护理提供者，又是支持人员。关键问题是 学术健康科学中心并不是一个散居海外的人是否会影响到所有人 传统努力的方方面面将会发生，但这将是如何发生的 设法同时处理全面的学术使命和 保持财务上的可行性是当务之急。信息和技术，以 将信息数据集中集成和管理到针对此问题的所有答案中 关键问题。以信息化推进学术使命 技术，我们提出了一系列活动，旨在实现我们的 IAIMS愿景：单一的安全登录和用户友好的界面带来 准确的多媒体信息与世界？S生物医学知识随手可得 承担决策和解决问题的责任。整合的工作是 由机器完成，而不是由提供者完成。IAIMS作为一个概念，一个行动计划， 一系列连贯的活动将成为 匹兹堡大学卫生学院之间持续的伙伴关系 科学和匹兹堡大学医学中心系统。 更具体地说，我们的努力将： 一、实施并维持一个促进持续发展的管理结构 向我们的IAIMS愿景迈进。 二、进一步设计、开发和实施企业集成系统 建筑。 开展一系列相互关联的重点活动，利用 发展IAIMS架构，提升学术使命。这些 各项活动将共同构成集中工作的临界量 跨越教学、研究和医疗保健，确保架构 充分利用其潜力。 持续评估我们的努力，以便记录、理解和 推动我们一路前行。

DESCRIPTION (Adapted from the applicant?s abstract): We find ourselves in an era of profound change affecting all activities of the academic health sciences center: the delivery of health care, ongoing education of trainees and practitioners, and basic and applied research. The academic campus is being reconfigured as a distributed enterprise of students, faculty, and staff who are both care providers and support personnel. The critical question for academic health science centers is not whether a diaspora affecting all aspects of traditional endeavor will occur, but rather how this will be managed to address simultaneously the comprehensive academic mission and the imperative to remain financially viable. Information and the technologies to integrate and manage information figure centrally into all answers to this critical question. To advance the academic mission via information technology, we propose a series of activities directed at attainment of our IAIMS vision: A single secure logon and a user-friendly interface brings accurate multimedia information and the world?s biomedical knowledge readily to bear on decision making and problem solving. The work of integration is done by the machine, not the provider. IAIMS as a concept, a plan of action, and a set of coherent activities will be an integral building block of the ongoing partnership between the University of Pittsburgh Schools of the Health Sciences and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center System. More specifically, our effort will: I. Implement and sustain a management structure that promotes continuous progress toward our IAIMS vision. II. Further design, develop, and implement an enterprise integrated systems architecture. III. Undertake an interconnected set of focal activities that employ the developing IAIMS architecture to enhance the academic mission. These activities will, together, comprise a critical mass of centralized effort spanning teaching, research and health care to ensure that the architecture is utilized to its full potential. IV. Evaluate our effort continuously so as to document, understand, and catalyze our progress along the way.
