Valkyrie: A Distributed Service-Oriented Architecture for Coordinated Healthcare Services

Abstract

The Valkyrie project aims to address the increasing number of individuals struggling with mental disorders in Norway and the pressure this has placed on the healthcare system. The project focuses on the coordination of services and the need for information across clinical levels in the healthcare system. Valkyrie aims to provide access to quality care and reduce the adverse effects of mental disorders. The Valkyrie project will contribute to the United Nation sustainable development goals and enhance healthcare services in Norway by facilitating knowledge transfer, improving interaction across care settings, and providing new knowledge on digitalization and patient-centric care. The project aligns with the National e-Health Strategy and supports several priority areas of the e-Health Plan.
