eHASS: A Smart Appointment Scheduling System for eHealth

چکیده
In the eHealth system, the appointment scheduling is an important task for the delivery of healthcare service among different healthcare actors. The key procedure is to do the decision making on the selection of suitable appointments between the care providers and the care receivers. The appointment decision is a sophisticated problem in terms of how to efficiently deal with various parameters of involved healthcare actors. To solve this problem, we suggest a smart system called eHealth Appointment Scheduling System (eHASS). eHASS takes into account both heterogeneity aspects and interoperability requirements of eHealth system. As such, eHASS is capable of jointly considering various appointment characterizations and decision making algorithms for conducting appointment scheduling. The paper reports the eHASS architecture as well as the related work-in-progress.
