Abstract

With the rapidly ageing population in most countries, the health and safety issues become the primary concern for elderly people because ageing is often associated with physical and cognitive impairments. In order to provide intelligent assistive health services for elders, in this paper, we propose an integrated OSGi-based service platform that can aggregate a variety of health assistive services, including health status monitoring, automated diagnosis and prognosis, and personalized health instruction by leveraging either stationary biosensors deployed in domestic settings or mobile sensing artifacts carried by elders. The assistive services in this integrated platform are able to help elders sustain and enhance health condition and quality of life with personalized health support. Our proposed platform is highly scalable and reusable by exploiting the component-based architecture of OSGI service framework, new services can be easily added into the platform according to individuals' needs and requirements. An implemented prototype system and the relevant performance evaluation are also presented.

基于osgi的老年人健康服务平台

随着大多数国家人口迅速老龄化，健康和安全问题成为老年人的首要关切，因为老龄化往往与身体和认知障碍有关。为了为老年人提供智能辅助健康服务，本文提出了一个基于osgi的集成服务平台，该平台可以利用家庭环境中部署的固定式生物传感器或老年人携带的移动传感工件，聚合多种健康辅助服务，包括健康状态监测、自动诊断和预后以及个性化健康指导。这个综合平台的辅助服务，可透过个人化的健康支援，帮助长者维持和改善健康状况及生活质素。通过利用OSGI服务框架的基于组件的体系结构，我们提出的平台具有高度的可扩展性和可重用性，可以根据个人的需要和需求轻松地将新的服务添加到平台中。并给出了一个实现的原型系统和相关的性能评价。
