CASE STUDY: CLINICAL MEDICAL EQUIPMENT

As part of transitioning from design to implementation, organizations must be able to translate the theoretical values and concepts discussed in Part II of this book into actions. Simply put: go from concept to concrete. The authors felt that a more "concrete" set of circumstances and requirements was essential for managers, engineers , administrators, and technicians to focus on design principles and relate them to specific outcomes relevant to their own environments. To ensure a consistent approach, an "actual" set of parameters was needed, and the following enterprise customer was created as a case study. The original CME Case Study was developed for the second edition of the "Official Guide" ( Citrix MetaFrame Access Suite for Windows Server 2003: The Official Guide ) three years ago. Part III in the third edition of this book continues building on the original case study to add new features and incorporate new technologies. Readers are strongly encouraged to take their time reviewing the description of our theoretical customer and to keep that image in mind as they read the chapters in Part III. However, we also want to remind our readers that no implementation is ever as easy as envisioned in a textbook case, nor are the textbook cases "all inclusive." This study is no different; the authors intentionally designed a complex paradigm to showcase as many design elements and considerations as possible.

Clinical Medical Equipment (CME) is a fictitious company that designs, manufactures, sells, and supports a proprietary diagnostic and treatment module for the health care industry worldwide. CME migrated to a centralized on-demand access paradigm three years ago (MetaFrame XPe) and is now updating their network, as part of a managed technology refresh plan, to support higher levels of security and more robust support for the Citrix Presentation Server 4 migration.
