An architecture of services for session management and contents adaptation in ubiquitous medical environments
Juliana Regueira Basto Diniz, Carlos Andre Guimaraes Ferraz, Hildeberto N. Melo · 2008
Advances in wireless technologies and mobile devices have made possible a wide range of efficient and powerful healthcare environments. Ubiquitous computing concepts meet healthcare principles, enabling physicians to connect to and use healthcare systems almost anytime, anywhere. This paper proposes a service architecture based on a context-aware middleware, which provides session management and content adaptation for ubiquitous medicine environments. By using simple applications on top of the proposed middleware services, associated physicians join a network of services, so called UHS (Ubiquitous Health Services) that provide ubiquitous access for its users from any point of the network, with different kinds of devices.
