Waterfall, RAD and FDD

At smartData, we understand that one size does not fit all in the world of software development. That's why we offer the flexibility to follow specific methodologies like Waterfall, Rapid Application Development (RAD), and Feature-Driven Development (FDD). Our adaptable approach ensures structured, phased development and rapid prototyping, allowing us to meet project needs and deliver exceptional outcomes.

Waterfall is a tried-and-true methodology that involves a structured, sequential approach to development. It's particularly well-suited for projects with clear, well-defined requirements. We leverage the Waterfall approach when a project's needs align with this methodology, ensuring that every phase is meticulously planned and executed.

Rapid Application Development (RAD) is another approach in our toolkit. It's perfect for projects that require quick prototyping and iterative development. RAD's emphasis on user feedback and rapid iterations allows us to create software that closely aligns with user expectations, making it ideal for dynamic projects.

Feature-Driven Development (FDD) is yet another methodology we offer. FDD focuses on designing and building features as individual units, making it suitable for complex, feature-rich projects. By breaking the project into manageable components, we ensure that each feature is developed with precision and efficiency.

Our adaptable approach doesn't stop at these methodologies. We tailor our development processes to meet the specific needs of your project, whether it's a classic Waterfall approach, rapid development with RAD, or feature-centric development with FDD.

In conclusion, smartData's adaptability is a key strength. This flexible approach allows us to create software that aligns with your vision and delivers exceptional outcomes, regardless of the development methodology that best suits your project.

Academic & Public Health Mapping for OB/GYN Access

Academic & Public Health Mapping for OB/GYN Access

This project focused on creating mapping reports to highlight geographic and linguistic disparities in OB/GYN service availability across Kansas. The objective was to provide visual evidence for healthcare researchers and policymakers to better understand provider distribution, identify underserved regions, and highlight language access barriers for Hispanic populations. The deliverables included static maps of provider clusters, Spanish-speaking access segmentation, and a custom symbolic visual to humanize the access challenge.

HL7 Mirth POC

HL7 Mirth POC

This Proof of Concept (POC) involves setting up a Mirth Connect integration to process HL7 messages for communication with the UAE government healthcare system. The workflow includes:

  • Receiving a JSON request via an HTTP Listener.
  • Converting JSON to HL7 format.
  • Sending HL7 data to the UAE government endpoint.
  • Handling real-time HL7 responses, converting them back to JSON, and sending the response to the HTTP requester.
  • Implementing retry logic (configurable, e.g., 3 retries) in case the government server is unreachable.
  • Ensuring nothing is hardcoded and using a config file for parameters like retry count.
  • Supporting JWT Authentication for secure HTTP requests.
  • Creating separate Mirth channels for each message type (ADT, ORM, etc.), starting with ADT messages.
