Smart Communities and Mobile WSN: a New Approach to a Preventive Healthcare System
Abstract
Smart Community is a geographical area that can cover neighborhood, urban, regional, national area whose residents, organizations, and governing institutions are using Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) to transform their region, life and work in significant and fundamental ways. Its aim is to facilitate the construction of a pervasive, high speed communications system and information services that will benefit all sectors of the community: education, healthcare, local government and business. Processing and receiving in real-time information by all the other community members, citizens themselves become distributed intelligent probe and actors on the Community area to make better decisions and enhance the quality of life and improve local economy producing enduring benefits. This work shows how Smart Communities and Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks (MWSN) can play an increasingly vital role in a healthcare system, improving citizens’ health, reducing mobility costs and user’s carbon footprint. The system architecture and the visual interface prototype of a Collaborative Health Navigation System, will be discussed.
