Scope
E-health has attracted a worldwide great interest since more than a decade.
E-health is an evolving concept since its inception due to the numerous technologies that can be adapted to offer new innovative and efficient E-health applications. Nowadays, with the tremendous advancement of wireless technologies, sensors and wearable devices and software technologies, new opportunities arisen and transformed the E-health field. Moreover, with the expansion of the IoT, and the huge amount of data that connected E-health devices and applications are generating, it is also mandatory to address new challenges related to the data management, applications management and their security. Moreover, artificial intelligence and machine learning are becoming more and more needed in many applications to build smart, resilient and innovative medical services.
The purpose of this book is to review the recent advances in E-health technologies and applications. In particular, the book will be folded into two parts: i) Infrastructures for E-health: devices design and communication technologies for E-health, ii) Enabling technologies for software and data management for E-health.
This book is intended for all practitioners (industrial and academic) in the areas of : i) wireless communications and embedded technologies applied to E-health ii)Software, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and big data for E-health applications.
