The interconnection of integrated health sciences library systems with other health sciences computer systems to achieve information networks will require either custom linkages among specific devices or the adoption of standards that all systems support. The most appropriate standards appear to be those being developed under the Open System Interconnection (OSI) reference model, which specifies a set of rules and functions that computers must follow to exchange information. The protocols have been modularized into seven different layers. The lowest three layers are generally available as off-the-shelf interfacing products. The higher layers require special development for particular applications. This paper describes the OSI, its application in health sciences networks, and specific tasks that remain to be undertaken.
综合健康科学图书馆系统与其他健康科学计算机系统相互连接以实现信息网络，这将需要在特定设备之间建立定制链接，或者采用所有系统都支持的标准。最合适的标准似乎是那些在开放系统互连（OSI）参考模型下正在制定的标准，该模型规定了计算机为交换信息必须遵循的一组规则和功能。这些协议已被模块化分为七个不同的层。最低的三层通常作为现成的接口产品提供。较高的层需要针对特定应用进行特殊开发。本文描述了OSI、其在健康科学网络中的应用以及仍有待开展的具体任务。
