A Mobile Agent-Based Technique for Medical Monitoring (Supports of Patients with Diabetes)

Abstract

Telemedicine is a particularly useful means to optimize the quality of care by fast medical exchanges that benefit patients whose state of health requires an appropriate and fast response, regardless of their geographic location. In this paper, the authors propose a mobile agent based architecture (DiabMAS) for remote medical monitoring of diabetic patients on an outpatient basis using mobile devices (laptops, PDAs, etc ...) by exploring the new operating Mobile system, Android. DiabMAS is a multi-agent system having as main objective the improvement of the transmission of information between patients and their physicians, especially the management of specific and critical cases.
