The current health care system faces new challenge: increasing aging population, growing health cost, and mobile life. We present a kind of network architecture for Health Care Monitoring. This network named HCMNet integrates isolated wireless sensor networks (WSNs) into internet. Each WSN composed of health care sensors and one mesh router operates as a mobile ad-hoc network. Sensors can move in...
Recent advances in wireless technology, sensors and portable devices offer interesting opportunities to enable ubiquitous assistance to individuals in need of prompt help. Providing healthcare services to mobile users, such as, patients, elders, or potential drug abusers, is a rather challenging task. Novel middleware-level supports are required to integrate sensor infrastructures capable of detecting...
Due to the advances in the field of communications networks there evolved, a very interesting and challenging area of wireless sensors networks, which is rapidly coming of age. These wireless sensors in the network are capable of performing various tasks and sense many types of information for various applications. These wireless sensor network technology has an ample potential to change the way we...
Several diseases and medical conditions require constant monitoring of physiological signals and vital signs on daily bases, such as diabetics, hypertension and etc. In order to make these patients capable of living their daily life it is necessary to provide a platform and infrastructure that allows the constant collection of physiological data even when the patient is not inside of the coverage...
Improving the quality of healthcare and the prospects of "aging in place" using wireless sensor technology requires solving difficult problems in scale, energy management, data access, security, and privacy. We present AlarmNet, a novel system for assisted living and residential monitoring that uses a two-way flow of data and analysis between the front- and back-ends to enable context-aware...
