Proposed cloud infrastructure of wearable and ubiquitous medical services

A Wearable Health Monitoring system is described that uses low-cost off the shelf sensors and computing components, along with custom made software, to provide an economical solution to personalized health care monitoring problems, while retaining all the functionality and flexibility of more expensive systems. Cloud technology is used to store sensor measurements which are categorized based on the criticality of bio-signals. Furthermore, a new session protocol for medical sensor data transmission is proposed. In a prototype system, tests based on different transmission architectures have so far yielded useful and favorable results in comparison with existing protocols and usually more expensive systems.
