Toward an ICT-Based Service Oriented Health Care Paradigm

Abstract

Health care platforms rapidly shift toward the ICT-based solutions. In this context, a wide range of consumer electronics technologies come into play ranging from robotics, embedded systems, sensors, and communication infrastructures. Driven by such observations, the H2020 RADIO project set forward a service-oriented, easily expandable design paradigm that emphasizes on how heterogenous commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) ICT technologies can be used as enablers of existing and new health-care services. Such services focus on activities of daily life (ADL) monitoring algorithms, on facilitating the indoor everyday life activities of the end user emphasizing on energy multifaceted conservation and security provision. All software components produced during the RADIO project with relative guidelines are freely available through dedicated GitHub repository (https://github.com/RADIO-PROJECT-EU).
