Recent data from the International Diabetes Federation indicated that at least 500,000 children aged 14 to 18 years worldwide have type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Currently, there is no cure for T1DM, so goal of therapy achieve and maintain optimal glucose levels, in particular, using insulin therapy, physical activity, diet. Studies more than 20,000 with T1DM shown benefits self-monitoring le...

More and more personal data is exposed to automatic and programmatic access, making it more difficult to safeguard the personal information from unauthorised access at every step. We introduce a privacy inspection and monitoring framework provides two functions: (i) the process designers can look over the privacy aspects of the automated business processes and resolve potential problems before ...

A mobile monitoring system utilizing Bluetooth and mobile messaging services (MMS/SMSs) with low-cost hardware equipment is proposed. A proof of concept prototype has been developed and implemented to enable transmission of an Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal and body temperature of a patient, which can be expanded to include other vital signs. Communication between a mobile smart-phone and the E...

The ARVmobile v1.0 is a multiplatform mobile personal health monitor (PHM) application for ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) monitoring that has the potential to aid in the acquisition and analysis of detailed profile of ABP and heart rate (HR), improve the early detection and intervention of hypertension, and detect potential abnormal BP and HR levels for timely medical feedback. The PHM system ...

Evaluation of LiF:Mg,Ti thermoluminescence dosemeters (TLDs) according to the high-temperature ratio (HTR) method enables the determination of the dose-average linear energy transfer (LET), the mean quality factor and the dose equivalent in mixed radiation fields of unknown composition. The neutron contribution is assessed by the Extended Pair method calibrated in the CERN-EU High-Energy Refere...

Both virtual and personal learning environments (VLEs and PLEs) are technologies widely used with educational purposes. Moreover, there also exists a pedagogical trend towards the development of high-level competences, such as the capacity to work collaboratively in a group. These two trends come together within the field of computer supported collaborative learning (CSCL). The evaluation of CS...

Paper presents a Web-based Personal Health System (PHS) for remote monitoring of ECG signals. It presents a multi-tiered architecture for building PHS and integrating them with enterprise and health information systems. Tiers encompass Body Area Network (BAN) with medical sensors, Personal Server and/or Home gateway, Medical servers and Web Portal. A use case scenario for remote ECG monitoring ...
