Title: Analyzing Healthcare Interoperability Vulnerabilities: Formal Modeling and Graph-Theoretic Approach

Abstract:
arXiv:2604.03043v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In a healthcare environment, the healthcare interoperability platforms based on HL7 FHIR allow concurrent, asynchronous access to a set of shared patient resources, which are independent systems, i.e., EHR systems, pharmacy systems, lab systems, and devices. The FHIR specification lacks a protocol for concurrency control, and the research on detecting a race condition only targets the OS kernel. The research on FHIR security only targets authenti
