Data mining technologies in a distributed medical information system

Proposed a method for solving the problem of identifying hidden relationships in hard-to-structure data that have an implicit character is considered using information mining. Proposed decision trees, the effectiveness of which is illustrated by a specific example. The use of OLAP analysis systems on data presented using in the form of a real or virtual hypercube’s information is an effective tool for the effectiveness of the management for medical monitoring

Developing a Powerful and Resilient Smart Body Sensor Network through Hypercube Interconnection

With recent advances in wireless sensor networks and embedded computing technologies, body sensor networks (BSNs) have become practically feasible. BSNs consist of a number of sensor nodes located and deployed over the human body. These sensors continuously gather vital sign data of the body area to be used in various intelligent systems in smart environments. This paper presents an intelligent design of the body sensor network based on virtual hypercube structure backbone termed as Smart BodyNet. The main purpose of the Smart BodyNet is to provide resilience for the BSN operation and reduce power consumption. Various experiments were carried out to show the performance of the Smart BodyNet design as compared to the state-of-the-art approaches.

A distributed virtual hypercube algorithm for maintaining scalable and dynamic network overlays

SummaryNetwork overlays support the execution of distributed applications, hiding lower level protocols and the physical topology. This work presents DiVHA: a distributed virtual hypercube algorithm that allows the construction and maintenance of a self‐healing overlay network based on a virtual hypercube. DiVHA keeps logarithmic properties even when the number of nodes is not a power of two, presenting a scalable alternative to connect distributed resources. DiVHA assumes a dynamic fault situation, in which nodes fail and recover continuously, leaving and joining the system. The algorithm is formally specified, and the latency for detecting changes and the subsequent reconstruction of the topology is proved to be bounded. An actual overlay network based on DiVHA called HyperBone was implemented and deployed in the PlanetLab. HyperBone offers services such as monitoring and routing, allowing the execution Grid applications across the Internet. HyperBone also includes a procedure for detecting groups of stable nodes, which allowed the execution of parallel applications on a virtual hypercube built on top of PlanetLab.
