A method, a system and a computer program are disclosed for the load-balanced allocation of computer-aided medical task flows on at least one application server of a server farm. In at least one embodiment, request conditions and load information are configured in a configuration phase. The request conditions are then recorded in a load balancing phase. In addition the load information is recorded via load calculation agents. A load balancing service can then calculate a target application server, which according to the load information determined meets all recorded request conditions.

A method is disclosed for producing a software application with at least two layers, including a processing layer and a process layer, wherein each layer is encapsulated and hence platform-independent in its execution, the encapsulated layers communicating via an application programming interface. A system is also disclosed for producing an application including a flexible interconnection interface between encapsulated layers. By virtue of the implementation of an additional configurable interconnection interface in the application programming interface between two encapsulated application layers, the architecture layering can be retained regardless of the respective deployment, and only the communication profiles of the interconnection interfaces need be adapted to the deployment. This has the advantage, in at least one embodiment, that it is not necessary to produce and update different source code masters for the different deployments, and instead only one single architecture layering of the application need be created and maintained.

A method for processing data is proposed, particularly image data in a medical system, in which a plurality of imaging modalities for capturing the data and their associated apparatus for locally processing and storing the data are connected to one another via a data transmission unit for the purpose of data interchange. Common data for all modalities are respectively stored locally and are coordinated with one another such that the respective modality remains active regardless of the state of the data transmission unit.

A base station is provided in a radio communication system by which first communication connections and second communication connections are transmitted. A first radio network controller is provided, by which the first communication connections are transmitted and also a second radio network controller, by which the second communication connections are transmitted. The base station comprises a common high frequency component which processes signals for the first communication connections and signals for the second communication connections. The signals of the first communication connections and the second communication connections are transmitted across an air gap at different carrier frequencies and can be sent by different carriers.
