From Smart Homes to Smart Care
Nowadays networks, microprocessors, memory chips, smart sensors and actuators are faster, cheaper and smaller than ever. They are becoming available anywhere, anytime. Current advances in such enabling technologies let foresee novel applications and services for improving the life of elderly and disabled people in their home and outside. These conference proceedings present the latest approaches and technical solutions in the area of smart homes, health telematics, and enabling technologies. The first chapter delves into the user perspective to ascertain real needs and design truly useful services. The following chapter explores the enabling technology. Distributed sensors, smart devices and...
Impact Analysis of Solutions for Chronic Disease Prevention and Management
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Smart Homes and Health Telematics, ICOST 2012, held in Artiminio, Tuscany, Italy, June 12- 15, 2012. The 25 revised full papers presented together with 22 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 74 submissions. The papers are categorized into a number of sessions that include: User Engagement for Improved Adoption of Assistive Technologies, Self-Management and Tele-Rehabilitation, Advances in Remote Monitoring and Activity Recognition, Sensor Networks for Unobstrusive Monitoring Solutions, and Real World “Aware” Systems.
Systems Design for Remote Healthcare
This book provides a multidisciplinary overview of the design and implementation of systems for remote patient monitoring and healthcare. Readers are guided step-by-step through the components of such a system and shown how they could be integrated in a coherent framework for deployment in practice. The authors explain planning from subsystem design to complete integration and deployment, given particular application constraints. Readers will benefit from descriptions of the clinical requirements underpinning the entire application scenario, physiological parameter sensing techniques, information processing approaches and overall, application dependent system integration. Each chapter ends with a discussion of practical design challenges and two case studies are included to provide practical examples and design methods for two remote healthcare systems with different needs.
Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention - MICCAI 2001
In the four years of its existence, MICCAI has developed into the premier - nual conference on medical image computing and computer-assisted interv- tion. The single-track conference has an interdisciplinary character, bringing - getherresearchersfromboththenaturalsciencesandvariousmedicaldisciplines. It provides the international forum for developments concerning all aspects of medical image processing and visualization, image-guided and computer-aided techniques, and robot technology in medicine. The strong interest in MICCAI is con?rmed by the large number of subm- sions we received this year, which by far surpassed our expectations. The arrival of the shipload of papers just before the d...
