The system is designed to support the capture, storage, browsing, editing and organization of handwritten notes via the complementary use of digital pens to capture information, handheld computers to browse and store prior information, and digital pens and handheld computers in combination to edit and organize information. Desktop computer software synchronizes the information from the digital pen and Pocket PC during editing and reorganization. Through the combined use of different hardware components supported by our software, we describe a system that bridges the paper-electronic information divide in mobile contexts. The system relies on human-in-the-loop techniques coupled with stroke timing to simplify coordination of content from different sources, rather than resorting to complex and often error-prone computer document recognition algorithms.","PeriodicalId":348977,"journal":{"name":"First International Conference on the Digital Society (ICDS'07)","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126372252","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper introduces eHit Health Gateway, an effective and secure tool to wirelessly transfer data from different measurement devices to the health care service provider by using a mobile platform. The system consists of a mobile platform, which collects the information from the measuring devices, and a server platform, which receives the collected data and forwards them to the existing Information System. The mobile platform can be used on most different devices such as mobile phones, smart phones and Personal Digital Assistants (PDA). An overview of the system functionality is followed by some important notes about security and privacy and by three reference cases illustrating the functionality of the system in different disease management environments. The paper also briefly points out some economical aspects to be considered when evaluating the use of telemedicine solutions.","PeriodicalId":348977,"journal":{"name":"First International Conference on the Digital Society (ICDS'07)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121645162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
