Client/server model for telemedicine systems

The study of telemedicine system models plays an important part in the telemedicine applications. A good model not only makes efficient implementation of telemedicine applications, but also reduces the expense of systems. To meet the requirement of telemedicine system, by introducing services of communication and system, a client/server model driven by messages is presented, and the principle and methods about the model are discussed layer by layer. At last, an example of telemedicine applications which has been implemented in the environment of Internet and Microsoft Windows 95 is given out. The result of the application indicates that the model has excellent expansibility and the feature easy to implement.
