Objectives: Current information & communication technology is advancing very rapidly and the ripple effects are spreading all over society traditional Korean medicine (TKM) is no exception. We draw up afuture plan and target system's architecture of KIOM's OASIS to follow the information change and reinforce the supporting infra for TKM research. Methods: First, we analyzed the information circumstances of western and eastern medicine, both overseas and domestic, especially investigating the detailed changes domestically. Second, we grasped the present conditions of OASIS and compared it with other information portals. Finally, we drew a future plan and system architecture from the analysis results. Results: First, the information status of western medicine is much more advanced than TKM's, and overseas information circumstances are likewise more developed than domestics. Second, we found that OASIS is performing the central research infra role well in TKM. Finally we designed an information system architecture which is composed of an infra layer, an application layer and a service layer. Conclusion: We must integrate information materials such as literature, research manpower, facilities and standards to make TKM's knowledge portal successful. In detail, we have to make TKM's information classification code, build up the electronic TKM library and offer complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) trends.

The fusion research subjects of Oriental medicine and Information-Technology are actively advanced. These researches provide Oriental medicine the objectivity and support the infra to all study area of Oriental medicine. This paper considers the inside and outside of the country technical development trend of ontology research by analyzing papers and going through case study. It executed information analysis about changes to number of research papers, present state and star higher officer of research facility from the dissertation which it sees. It is known that our country research result is slight so far in quantity and quality as result of analysis. But hereafter it contains many developmental possibilities. Also it reflects the appearance and a growth of new field like bio-informatics biology. In the area of medicine, ontology used to define the terminology for information documentation and the medical terms linked up by high correlation. Also medical information system developed briskly using ontology technology. The ontology of traditional korean medicine play an important role in base infra of traditional korean medicine EHR(Electronic health record).

The objectives of this study are to examine the current status and problems of herb-drug interaction (HDI) information and information database in Korea and suggest the better way to establish useful HDI database. We collected HDI studies that published in Korea and analyzed according to objective, methods, selection criteria of herbs, number of study, correlation between study subject and frequently used herbal medicine (HM). Then we selected representative HM database on the internet made by Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) among the several databases and analyzed its contents related to HDI. Several HDI studies were carried out from laboratory based research to clinical trials and HM databases have been developed for providing information about different aspects of traditional Korean medicine. But the information of HDI and information database are still far from practical applications because there are no coherence to select study subjects and methods among researchers. So, it is necessary to build up HDI database led by the government for providing systematic HDI information. HDI information database is expected to be able to provide useful evidence for health professionals in prescription and consultation to reduce the chance of adverse effects and improve the quality of medical care.

We in this paper design and implement a traditional korean medicine diagnosis system based on basic ontology. If doctors put the symptoms or tongues or pulses of a patient in the diagnosis system, they can be recommended for the diagnosis results. To support the doctors decision, the diagnosis system make the inference based on the basic ontology and compute the similarity between symptoms of patient and those of ontology. The diagnosis systems also provide the learning mechanism about diagnosis results which save the results in the ontology and reuse them in the next diagnosis. Thus, doctors can share their knowledge for the diagnosis by exchanging their ontology each other. In future, we will expand the knowledge of the basic ontology continuously so that doctors can get the more accurate diagnosis results. We also implement the prescription function and integrate it to the diagnosis system.

Objectives: Because of the characteristics of traditional Korean medicine, there are few overseas patents and SCI papers. Researchers are struggling to analyze the research trend using existing patent analysis system and paper analysis system. We aim to build up a web-based paper map analysis system for Traditional Korean Medicine to improve the situation. Methods: We studied the following three sub topics. First, we surveyed the research trend analysis method for traditional Korean medicine. Second, we designed a paper map analysis model and made the algorithm for it. Finally, the development of the paper map analysis system was conducted. Results: We developed a web-based paper map analysis system which has the three main functions being analysis chart, topology map and contour map. For the rich internet application, we used the flex development tool and java integrated development environment. Conclusion: We will provide our paper map analysis system in the OASIS through the minor changes to provide easy use. We hope that this system will be a useful tool to analyze the research trends for traditional Korean medicine.

Objectives : In this study, we survey papers about the combined therapy of oriental medicine and western medicine in oriental medicine viewpoint. Methods : First, we collected research papers on combined treatment, and we found 70 papers in the two internet sites, 'OASIS' and 'KISTI', using the keywords 'combined treatment', 'collaborated diagnosis', 'oriental-western medicine', and 'western-oriental medicine'. Then we analyzed them according to year, oriental-western medicine, diseases, research methods and subjects. Results & Conclusions : Researches for combined therapy had some problems as follows : First, studies have been made only for limited diseases like cancer, infection, stroke, etc. Second, methods of research are also limited. Some methods such as in vivo, in vitro and case-report are used repeatedly. Third, only the positive aspects of the combined therapy are proposed. We don't find the side effects of the combined therapy at all. To solve these problems, more objective and balanced studies such as RCT for various diseases should be performed.

We in this paper proposed a distinction method to compare objects in the Korean medicine ontology. Comparing same and different information between two objects, two scenarios to use our system were designed and implemented. One is the distinction of formulas, medicinal materials, and acupuncture points and the other is the distinction of effects, treatments, and symptoms. To compare objects easily, the decomposition of effects and treatments and the processing of medicinal materials were provided. Also, information of each object was shown through the link to the semantic search system. Our distinction method and system could be helpful to compare and distinct two objects in the diagnosis systems or search systems of Korean medicine information.

Objectives: The objectives of this study are to determine both what information Korean Medicine(KM) doctors want from medical classics and how classic KM knowledge should be structured. Methods: KM doctor survey was conducted in October 2012 via E-mail to determine what information Korean Medicine doctors want to collect from a larger volume of existing classics. Specialist survey was made in October 2012 through questionnaire and 8 workshops were held between April 2012 ~ February 2013 to discuss how to reorganize classic KM knowledge. Results: With two surveys and 8 workshops, we built a conceptualization of the classic KM knowledge system for KM practice. KM doctors wanted to engage with the design of KM knowledge system informed by authentic medical classics, and hoped that more information on common disorders would be added to the table of contents of classic KM books than now. A comprehensive knowledge system was also required to maximize information sharing. Conclusions: Future KM knowledge systems need to be more comprehensive and include more information about disorders with which patients commonly consult KM doctors.
