Abstract

Blockchain applications in healthcare have grown rapidly and it includes record keeping, clinical trials, medical supply chains, patient monitoring, etc. where Blockchain characteristics are needed to improve safety, privacy, and security. Blockchain Technology is one of the biggest disruptive technologies today. However, Porru, et. al (2017) have reported it lacks processes, tools, and techniques. Therefore, this paper provides a systematic framework for a secure and sustainable software engineering framework for healthcare blockchain applications. Secure and Sustainable Software Engineering Framework for Healthcare Blockchain Applications (S3EF-HBCA) significant contribution includes requirements engineering for healthcare, business process modelling for healthcare, domain modelling for healthcare, a reference architecture for healthcare, and validation by case study on Electronic Healthcare Record Management System (EHR), and simulation with Business Process Modelling Notation (BPMN) tools. The simulation shows it has taken 10.45 minutes to process 100 instances of real-time data and service requests. The overall result shows encouragement in terms of process, tools, standards, and testing.

S3EF-HBCAs：医疗保健区块链应用的安全和可持续软件工程框架

区块链在医疗保健领域的应用发展迅速，它包括记录保存、临床试验、医疗供应链、患者监控等，这些领域都需要区块链的特性来提高安全性、隐私性和保障性。区块链技术是当今最大的颠覆性技术之一。然而，Porru 等人（2017 年）报告称，它缺乏流程、工具和技术。因此，本文为医疗保健区块链应用的安全和可持续软件工程框架提供了一个系统框架。医疗保健区块链应用的安全与可持续软件工程框架（S3EF-HBCA）的重要贡献包括医疗保健需求工程、医疗保健业务流程建模、医疗保健领域建模、医疗保健参考架构，并通过电子医疗保健记录管理系统（EHR）案例研究和业务流程建模符号（BPMN）工具模拟进行验证。模拟结果显示，处理 100 例实时数据和服务请求需要 10.45 分钟。总体结果显示，在流程、工具、标准和测试方面都取得了令人鼓舞的成绩。
