Subject: HL7 healthcare "timing" and PIM
See
http://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=Old_ITS_datatypes_content#Timing_Specifications
- as the URI suggests it's not the most current, but reflects some
medical industry thinking. I've pretty much convinced myself that recurrences in GluonType make sense and address common use cases (thanks, Mike!) regardless of the inheritance description - in fact they're useful even if the closest recurrence obtains. Here's perhaps the simplest case from the HL7 URI. Sounds a lot like recurrences, with non-iCalendar terminology. Expressed with a gluon for the actions with recurrence in the gluon. The Event-Related Periodic Interval of Time (EIVL) is like "one hour after breakfast", related to a set of daily events/habits. Has the same ambiguity one gets from standard medical practice. The General Timing Specification is really a sequence with associated data, so a non-specific sequence could be used. (the latter two are at the URI). --
