The Technology and Architecture Committee purpose is to define a logical service-oriented architecture, an endorsed content model and a technical specification to support interoperable applications. The recommendations of this Committee include service definitions, security model, eventing, and user interface integrations requirements that compliant HSPC platforms will implement and third party application developers will develop their applications against. This is the workspace of the committee and it's various Working Groups containing meeting notes, project status, etc.
HSPC adopts a 4-layer model :
- A common, logical architecture model
This is where the relevant functional requirements, capabilities, content models and their interactions and inter-dependencies are defined
By mission, the HSPC architecture is open, service oriented, model and knowledge driven.
- One or more platform-independent architectural specifications
Matching the overarching logical architecture, this is the level where standards will be adopted.
HSPC will then endorse one reference architecture.
- One or more platform-specific implementations
For any given architecture, platform-specific technologies will be adopted for concrete implementation purposes.
HSPC will provde at least one reference implementation of the reference architecture
- One of more installations
Implementations will be deployed at various sites for development, testing, or even production purposes.
HSPC will maintain a reference sandbox installation of its reference implementation.
HSPC Architecture Workgroup
The HSPC Technical Specification Workgroup are creating the spec App Developers and EHR Developers will implement to become HSPC enabled.
Find the HSPC Technical Specification here in its current state.

HSPC Reference Implementation Workgroup
The HSPC Reference Implementation Workgroup are working together to build the reference implementation of the HSPC Technical Specification.
For current documentation about the existing HSPC Reference Implementation, including how to download, build, and install it, go here.
HSPC Sandboxes Workgroup
The HSPC Sandbox Workgroup are working together to define the requirements of a sandbox, to host and support the HSPC Reference implementation on a cloud-based platform.
The Workgroup is also focused on collecting useful de-identified clinical data and foundational content to enable the sandbox's functionalities.
For documentation about the current sandboxes go here.
