The future of MEBC: panel discussion.

The expected developments in the not too distant future (5-10 years) of molecular electronics and biocomputing (MEBC) are discussed. In the short-term, the study of very specific basic phenomena is expected (e.g. conducting polymers, strange electronic states of insulating polymers, bacteriorhodopsin (BR), arrays of molecules, self-organization of biomaterials, very specific biological systems, quantum coherence in cytoskeletal microtubules, optoelectronic information storage, associative memories, pattern recognition, hierarchical nature of biological information). New application fields outside the range of conventional technology (e.g. randomized algorithms, optoelectronic devices, chemical and biosensors, as well as a certain extent of commercialisation) have also been predicted. In the long-term, the study and solution of much deeper (sometimes scientific fiction-like) problems were foreseen, such as the self-organization of biomaterials, artificial self-reproduction, implementation of artificial cell dynamic control structures based on molecular devices for medical and environmental applications and the construction of neuronal computers as aids to the human brain.

Health care professional workstations: where are we now? ... where should we be tomorrow?

This article looks back over four years during which major changes have occurred in healthcare informatics, both technically and from a policy perspective. A remarkable portion of what medical-informatics professionals were proposing in 1989 has subsequently come to pass. Thus, one lesson from reflections on the recent past is that now is the time for us to devise realistic expectations of what we will see happen in the next four years. Possible scenarios for the future are outlined, as are suggestions for how the informatics community might best prepare for what lies ahead.

[Current and future perspectives of medical information network systems for community health using personal computers and IC cards].

Recent developments in computer and communication technology were studied in relation to medical information network systems, using computers and IC cards, to solve problems in community health. Trial use of personal computer network systems among physicians and IC card systems for personal health data management are already in existence in some parts of Japan. These trials were studied and analyzed based on a questionnaire survey of physicians and patients. Results of the study produced some useful points that should be considered when introducing these systems. These included: 1) details on expectations and specifications for these systems by physicians and patients, 2) easy access to valuable information is a key point for active network systems among physicians, 3) plausibility of improvement of communication between physicians and patients by using these systems, 4) recognition that an important problem concerns patient information privacy and must be considered before introducing these systems. A study of practical merits of these systems and methodology for realization indicates that participation by active and attractive providers of information can be expected to stimulate frequent use of the network system. The cost of introducing these systems can be partially borne by eliminating the large investment now allocated for processing requests for reimbursement of medical services. Investigation into the introduction of medical information systems provides a good opportunity to elucidate problems in the present medical systems.

Navigating the Internet.

Navigating any complex set of information resources requires tools for both browsing and searching. A number of tools are available today for using Internet resources, and more are being developed. This article reviews existing navigational tools, including two developed at the Yale University School of Medicine, and points out their strengths and weaknesses. A major shortcoming of the present Internet navigation methods is the lack of controlled descriptions of the available resources. As a result, navigating the Internet is very difficult.

Computers in rheumatology.

The results of a nationwide survey of the use of computers in rheumatology departments in the UK is presented. The survey revealed a widespread interest in the various possible uses of computer hardware and software in the specialty, and highlighted the difference between the experience of those who use computers and the aspirations of those who hope to.
