Health Care Paradigms in the Internet of Things Ecosystem

Health Care Paradigms in the Internet of Things Ecosystem, authored by Valentina Emilia Balas, is a comprehensive guide that integrates all IoT-enabled health care related technologies into a single platform. This book is designed for undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, academicians, and industry leaders to understand IoT-based healthcare systems effectively.

The book applies data and network engineering and intelligent decision support system-by-design principles to design a reliable IoT-enabled health care ecosystem and to implement cyber-physical pervasive infrastructure solutions. It begins with understanding the healthcare monitoring paradigm in IoT-enabled technologies and how it can be applied in various aspects.

Readers will embark on a journey that includes real-time challenges and a guide on how to build a safe infrastructure for IoT-based health care. It also helps researchers and practitioners understand the e-health care architecture through IoT and the state-of-the-art in IoT countermeasures.

This book provides a comprehensive discussion on functional frameworks for IoT-based healthcare systems, intelligent medicine, RFID technology, HMI, Cognitive Interpretation, Brain-Computer Interface, Remote Health Monitoring systems, wearable sensors, WBAN, and security and privacy issues in IoT-based health care monitoring systems.

Key topics covered include:

• Complete functional framework workflow in IoT-enabled healthcare technologies
• Concepts of location-aware protocols and decisive mobility in IoT healthcare
• Intelligent data processing and wearable sensor technologies in IoT-enabled healthcare
• Human Machine Interface and its implications in patient-care systems in IoT healthcare
• Security and privacy issues and challenges related to data-intensive technologies in healthcare-based Internet of Things

Published by Elsevier Science in November 2020, this book is available in English and provides a valuable resource for those interested in understanding the future of healthcare through IoT technologies.
