Abstract: A system and method for collecting and evaluating data associated with operation of a vehicle. Vehicle trajectory data associated with operation of a vehicle is received from a device configured to collect the vehicle trajectory data. The vehicle trajectory data comprises time-marked and location-marked speed data. The vehicle trajectory data is segmented into one or more segments. Each of the one or more segments represents a pattern of driver behavior. Event data is retrieved from one or more databases. The event data corresponds to a time associated with the time marking of the vehicle trajectory data and a location associated with the location marking of the vehicle trajectory data. The segments are correlated with the event data using the time and the location. The correlations are analyzed. Based on the analysis, associations between the vehicle trajectory data and the event data are determined. The associations represent a causal relationship between the segments and the event data.

Abstract: A medical information system (1) for use in a hospital environment. The system comprises clinic and department computer terminals (1000) of the hospital interconnected with a message network (19). A computer terminal (10010, 10011, 10022) is arranged to enter record and medical data into the system. The record and medical data is formatted (10017, 10018) into a data message and transmitted over the message network to each of the other computer terminals. Each computer terminal modifies (10015, 10017, 10018) the received record and medical data in accordance with clinic and departmental station requirements file data (10015) assigned the receiving computer terminal and records (10011, 10018, 10022) the modified record and medical data in forms files and medical data dictionary data bases (100112, 100222).
