vhMentor: An ontology supported mobile agent system for pervasive health care monitoring
2nd World Congress on Genetics, Geriatrics and Neurodegenerative Diseasese Research, GeNeDis 2016, Sparta, Greece, 20-23 October 2016
ABSTRACT
Healthcare provision is a set of activities that demands the collaboration of several stakeholders (e.g. physicians, nurses, managers, patients etc.) who hold distinct expertise and responsibilities. Also, medical knowledge is diversely located and often shared under no central coordination authority to supervise. Furthermore, medical data flows remain mostly passive regarding the way data is delivered to both clinicians and patients. In such an environment we propose the implementation of vhMentor that is a concrete ontology supported and FIPA compliant agent system. Agent technology proves to be ideal for developing healthcare applications due to its distributed operation over systems and data sources of high heterogeneity. Agents are able to perform their tasks by acting pro-actively in order to assist individuals to overcome burdens posed during accessing medical data and executing non-automatic error-prone processes. On the one hand vhMentor is a prototype that fills the gap between healthcare systems and community care provision and on the other hand allows for the introduction of next generation distributed services in healthcare domain.
