Sometimes, a designer needs to share a "creation heritage" to support the generativity of his pairs, in the form of a book. What should be its content? The literature has shown that knowledge in such books might be fixating or defixating, leading to inconclusive results. Using recent advances in design theories we model the features of a heritage oriented towards generativity. Relying on the literary tradition in Cuisine, we validate our model. We show that transferring knowledge implies sharing objects structure, value criteria, desired unknowns, progress principles, and creative reasoning.

In this paper we describe Pangea-LE, a message-oriented lightweight data integration engine that allows homogeneous and concurrent access to clinical information from disperse and heterogeneous data sources. The engine extracts the information and passes it to the requesting client applications in a flexible XML format. The XML response message can be formatted on demand by appropriate XSL (Extensible Stylesheet Language) transformations in order to meet the needs of client applications. We also present a real deployment in a hospital where Pangea-LE collects and generates an XML view of all the available patient clinical information. The information is presented to healthcare professionals in an EHR (Electronic Health Record) viewer Web application with patient search and EHR browsing capabilities. Implantation in a real setting has been a success due to the non-invasive nature of Pangea-LE which respects the existing information systems.3

Marketing" and "design" teams often experience conflicts when cooperating on innovation projects. In luxury industries, these difficulties are exacerbated by a tension between innovation and tradition, which, in turn, causes a loss of originality and operational efficiency. Based on three case studies of a luxury champagne house, we provide evidence of the existence of a type of cognitive resource-a creative heritage-that can help marketing and design teams in luxury organizations manage these tensions, address destructive and creative tensions, and, hence, gain originality that is coherent with tradition and operational efficiency.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has recently approved a new standard for the communication and semantic interoperability of electronic health record extracts. This standard is based on a dual model architecture, where a simple and generic reference model is defined for the representation of data and an archetype model is used for the representation of complex domain concepts of the electronic health record. By using this standard and a tool called LinkEHR-Ed, we have defined different types of hospital discharge reports in the form of archetypes and then we have normalized automatically discharge reports instances in a real environment following those archetype definitions. This work proves that it is possible to standardize legacy data automatically and enrich them with a semantic information layer by using archetypes as an integration and standardization mechanism.
