Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a mobile u-health service system, named THE-MUSS, which supports u-health service development and running, with functions, modules, and facilities that are commonly required for various mobile u-health services. Basic modules to support bio-signal capturing, processing, analysis, diagnosis, feedbacks are prepared and stacked in the system. Reusability and evolvability are elicited as the primary design goals to achieve in developing THE-MUSS after the understanding of u-health service characteristics. U-health service platform, u-health ontology incorporated u-health service design tool, Matrix based disease group identification framework, and u-health portal are the major components constructing the layered architecture of THE-MUSS. Mobile stress and weigh management services are developed on THE-MUSS to confirm and evaluate the usefulness of THE-MUSS in developing mobile u-health services. According to the evaluation, it turned out that THE-MUSS has strength in reusability and evolvability, but also in system flexibility, adaptability, interoperability, and guideline provision for developing u-health services.
