Abstract
This extended abstract describes the characteristics of Ultra- Large-Scale Systems (ULSS) and the gaps in our understanding of these systems. We compare the characteristics of ULSS with the desired characteristics for national and global health information systems. Using the methodology proposed for the US Department of Defense and representative global health scenarios, we identify a strategy to develop a research agenda in Ultra-Large-Scale-Systems for Global Health Informatics.
