RemoteHealth
The economically weaker and marginalized sections of people, particularly those living in remote villages of India have very limited and often no access to proper healthcare services. Due to tremendous shortage of trained manpower and huge cost for setting up state-of-the-art facilities, it is often not possible to deliver proper healthcare services in the rural and remote areas. Lack of accurate and timely information further adds to the problem. The advancements of the internet, wireless mobile computing, sensor networking and cloud computing technologies have led to cutting-edge research in a wide variety of applications that can significantly improve our daily lives, including healthcare systems. Remote Health project is about creating a service provision framework and deploying suitable healthcare services through integration of stateof-the-art technologies like smartmobile devices, sensor networking and cloud computing. Remote Health research work is distributed around three central themes: (1) developing sensor-cloud infrastructure for providing remote healthcare services, (2) delivering efficient solutions for pervasive healthcare services over wireless networks while ensuring the quality of service (QoS) requirements, and (3) developing knowledge extraction techniques for mobile healthcare applications. Major technical contribution of the project will be a healthcare service framework in a sensor-cloud architecture having secure and seamless communication. Low-cost, portable device for bridging this gap towards integration of sensor data from multiple patient sensors will be developed. Finally, knowledge extraction techniques and application of this knowledge for efficient diagnosis, prognosis and delivery of healthcare services will be another important contribution of the project.
