  • Abstract
    A description is given of the process trellis, a domain- and hardware-independent software architecture. Its usefulness in building the Intelligent Cardiovascular Monitor, a real-time clinical decision-support system whose ´paving-stone´ interface gives a clinician an instantaneous overview of a patient´s status, is demonstrated. Issues of parallelism, real-time operation, and visualization are discussed.<>
