Abstract
Abstract The internet of medical things (IoMT) is relatively new territory for the internet of things (IoT) platforms where we can obtain a significant amount of potential benefits in terms of smart future network computing and intelligent health-care systems. Effective utilization of the health-care data is the key factor here in achieving such potential, which can be a significant challenge as the data is extraordinarily heterogeneous and spread across different devices with different degrees of importance and authority to access it. To address this issue, in this paper, we introduce an intelligent context-based metadata aggregator in the decentralized and distributed edge-based IoMT platform with a use case of early sepsis detection using clinical data. We thoroughly discuss the various aspects of the metadata aggregator and the overall IoMT architecture. Based on the discussion, we posit that the proposed architecture could improve the overall performance and usability in the IoMT platforms in particular for different IoMT based services and applications.
