Abstract

The paper presents a concise method for transforming textual representations of healthcare services, to a structured, semantically unambiguous modelling language. The method is designed based on literature, as well as trial and error by the authors, using text descriptions of healthcare services. Employing the method can convert textual descriptions to structured graphical models, facilitating stakeholder collaboration on requirements analysis and simulation.
