A platform for personalized mobile u-health application design and development

Abstract

In this paper, we propose an application platform and development environment to enable medical specialists such as doctor and therapist to design and develop personalized mobile u-healthcare applications based on patientpsilas health conditions and environmental situations. The personalized applications are specified in the form of application scenario using XML document which is downloaded and played on mobile phone. The platform provides models, functions, and facilities for medical specialists to design their own u-health applications. They design u-health application scenarios, and application scenario player of the platform executes the application scenario on the patientpsilas mobile phone. We confirmed that the suggested platform is useful and adequate in developing personalized mobile u-healthcare applications by implementing an actual stress application on the platform.
