Abstract
Abstract The use of cloud computing and mobile devices is increasing in healthcare service delivery primarily because of the huge storage capacity of cloud, the heterogeneous structure of health data and the user-friendly interfaces on mobile devices. We propose a healthcare delivery scheme where a large knowledge base is stored in the cloud and user responses from mobile devices are input to this knowledge base to reach a preliminary diagnosis of diseases based on patients’ symptoms. However, instead of sending every response to the cloud and getting data from cloud server, it may often be desirable to prune a portion of the knowledge base that is stored in a graph form and download in to the mobile devices. Downloading data from cloud depends on the storage, battery power, processor of a mobile device, wireless network bandwidth and cloud processor capacity. In this paper, we focus on developing mathematical expressions involving the above mentioned criteria and show how these parameters are dependent on each other. The expressions built in this paper can be used in real-life scenarios to take decisions regarding the amount of data to be pruned in order to save energy as well as time.
