Abstract

Although medical technologies developed in the twenty-first century have successfully increased man's life span, the pressure of modern life has consequently brought many modern civilization diseases and chronic illness. When all these problems are tackled by hospitals, they will consume considerable amount of medical resources. Alternatively, providing health care services at home is an important issue for improving personal health and save hospital resources. In this paper, we present an ongoing project that designs and implements a pervasive health service infrastructure based on the grid system which is integrated with the P2P's resource sharing mechanism, to provide the personal health service. The personal health status is recorded, monitored, and even mined in/from the proposed pervasive health service system for preventive medicine. Additionally, wireless sensor equipments for mobile personal health services are also integrated into the pervasive health service system, in order to construct a situation-aware, context-aware and environment-aware mobile-health-service platform.
