The purpose of this document is to collect, analyze, and define high-level needs and features of the NCI CBIIT caDSR content browsers, CDE and UML Browsers, Release 4.0.0.1. This document focuses on the functionality proposed by the product stakeholders and target users in order to make it a better product. The use-case and supplementary specifications document will detail how the framework will fulfill these needs.
Vision and Needs
The objective of this release of the caDSR content browsers is to add several high priority but fixes from the content developers, making way for the next release, 4.0.0.2 to address end users "Top 10" list, and to begin design for new clinician friendly, end user browser for users who are not familiar with caDSR or ISO 11179. This has been described as something that might be similar to the Tolven Wikihit, a view of content in which the end user does not need to know what content is available, but is provided with an interface that serves up content in a way that is intuitive. This would be accomplished by leveraging the relationships that are inherent in the ISO11179 and caDSR metamodel.
This release will address simplifying access to caDSR content by providing the ability to customize downloads, making browser UIs function more similarly and improve user experiences with the product.
