CLAP: Cross-Layer Protocols for Phealth
نویسنده
چکیده
In recent years, personalised health is rapidly gaining momentum as a result of advances in various technological areas, prevailing amongst them the ICT domain. However, the new applications are still mostly a dream for the majority of the world population due to cost and infrastructure constraints. We present here initial findings of a low cost, low power, backbone free pHealth solution, suitable for rural areas of developing countries. This work constitutes the technology core of a wider initiative, CLAP, that we envision as a turnaround approach on the way health and quality of life in these areas of the world are being addressed.

Clap, a Simple Language for Cryptographic Protocols
We describe the design of Clap, a simple speciication language devoted to cryptographic protocols (exclusively). Its main design principle is that it should be not only possible, but relatively easy, to prove security properties of Clap protocols automatically on a machine. To this end, Clap is very restricted. We can think of Clap as isolating what can be thought as a set of essential programm...

متن کاملLive single-cell laser tag
The ability to conduct image-based, non-invasive cell tagging, independent of genetic engineering, is key to cell biology applications. Here we introduce cell labelling via photobleaching (CLaP), a method that enables instant, specific tagging of individual cells based on a wide array of criteria such as shape, behaviour or positional information. CLaP uses laser illumination to crosslink bioti...
