A mobile healthcare questionnaire service framework using composite Web services

Abstract

Nowadays there are many healthcare questionnaires which help to check our health status easily. The healthcare questionnaires are, however, usually accessible through Web pages or hardcopies. As a consequence, they have limitations in the aspect of usage. Mobile healthcare questionnaire service is to provide healthcare questionnaires and to deliver the analysis results of the replies from users via mobile devices. Mobile healthcare questionnaire service is one of useful ways to check their health status at anytime and at anywhere. In this paper, we propose a mobile healthcare questionnaire service framework based on composite Web services. Our framework facilitates the designing and provisioning of mobile healthcare questionnaire services through mobile devices and Web technologies.
