Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) is a widely distributed network which requires small amount of power supply having limited storage and processing capacity. On the other hand, Cloud computing has virtually unlimited storage and processing capabilities and is a much more mature technology. Therefore, combination of Cloud computing and IoT can provide the best performance for users. Cloud computing nowadays provides lifesaving healthcare application by collecting data from bedside devices, viewing patient information and diagnose in real time. There may some concerns about security and other issues of the patient’s data but utilization of IoT and Cloud technologies in healthcare industry would open a new era in the field of healthcare. To ensure basic healthcare needs of the people in the rural areas, we have proposed Cloud-IoT based smart healthcare system. In this system various types of sensors (Temperature, Heart bit, ECG, etc.) are equipped in the patient side to sense the patient’s physiological data. For securing data RSA based authentication algorithm and mitigation of several security threats have been used. The sensed data will process and store in the Cloud server. Stored data can be used by the authorized and/or concerned medical practitioner upon approved by the user for patient caring.

Summary

Introduction

IoT is based on selfconfiguring intelligent nodes (things) that are interconnected with each other in a global network infrastructure It is disruptive technologies, enabling ubiquitous and pervasive computing scenarios. A novel IT paradigm in which Cloud computing and IoT are two complementary technologies merged together is expected to disrupt both current and Future Internet [1]. This new paradigm can be named as Cloud-IoT platform. The information becomes available in the cloud, from where expert systems can process it or distribute to the caregiver for analysis [7]
