Intelligent systems in healthcare: an architecture proposal

Abstract

Multi-Agent Systems has existed for decades and has focused on principles such as loose coupling, distribution, reactivity, and local state. Despite substantial tool and programming language research and development, industry adoption of these systems has been restricted, particularly in the healthcare arena. Artificial intelligence, on the other hand, entails developing computer systems that can execute tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as decision-making, problem-solving, and learning. The goal of this article is to develop and implement an architecture that includes multi-agent systems with microservices, leveraging the capabilities of both methodologies in order to harness the power of Artificial Intelligence in the healthcare industry. It assesses the proposed architecture’s merits and downsides, as well as its relevance to various healthcare use cases and the influence on system scalability, adaptability, and maintainability. Indeed, the proposed architecture is capable of meeting the objectives while maintaining scalability, flexibility, and adaptability.
