During the AIM Exploratory Action the ADAM -ADvanced Architecture in Medicine- project, undertook to design a workstation architecture for General Practitioners, which would be integrated with the services supplied by the National Health Care Systems. This architecture is presented globally. Other results, as contributions to standardisation, conditions for a functional reference model for the information processing environment in general practice, and grants for security are discussed. Validation of the model was achieved by the design and implementation of basic modules, namely the Medical Data Base and the Integration Tools. Account is taken of the exploitation of the results, and further plans are outlined.
