Telehealth relies on the ability of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to maximize the quality of care provided remotely. Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) is a key part within telehealth that enables patient to use devices to measure vital signs and sends it to a healthcare professional. Patients usually have multiple devices to measure vital signs. Those devices might be manufactured by...
This paper aims to evaluate the processes in the information processing chain of Internet of Things (IoT) applications from the perspective of value added by the processes. This innovative approach focuses on value architectures rather than technical network architectures. The goal is to lay the foundation for a reference process model for industrial IoT applications, which is capable to compare the...
Wireless technologies combined with advanced computing are changing industrial communications. Industrial wireless networks can improve the monitoring and the control of the entire system by jointly exploiting massively interacting communication and distributed computing paradigms. In this paper, we develop a wireless cloud platform for supporting critical data publishing and distributed sensing of...
The Inter-IoT project is aiming at the design and implementation of, and experimentation with, an open cross-layer framework and associated methodology, to provide voluntary interoperability among heterogeneous Internet of Things (IoT) platforms. The project is initially driven by uses cases from two domains: (e/m) Health and transportation and logistics in a port environment. While the Inter-IoT...
The constant evolution of technology has made people health conscious. The market is flooded with smart devices which track an individual's footsteps, the exercise regime followed, the calories burnt and many such health parameters. The important criterion often ignored which defines an individual's health is the food consumed. So it is imperative to constantly track what is ingested into the body...
Due to lack of information of the cloud service providers (CSPs), customers can not easily choose services according to their requirement and due to vendor lock-in and lack of interoperability standards among cloud service providers, customers cannot switch the providers once services are subscribed from CSPs. Recently proposed third party architecture which is called cloud broker can access inter-cloud...
The integration of sensing infrastructures into the Cloud gives a number of advantages in providing sensor data as a service over the Internet. Many solutions are now available in the literature, and most of them focus on modeling sensor networks as part of the infrastructure to be offered as a service (IaaS), directly managed by means of the Cloud tools that provide resource virtualization. We propose...
Correctional Service Canada (CSC) operates 57 Institutions equipped with a range of mission critical Security, Communications and Access Management systems. These include CCTV assessment, intrusion detection, radio communications and door control systems. User Interfaces range from colour graphic touch screens to knobs, push buttons etc. Operational and technical challenges include the following issues:...
