Towards Extensible and Adaptable Methods in Computing

Abstract

With the significant development of the technology in the field of computer science, the concept of telemedicine is gaining popularity. Telemedicine enables the healthcare sector and its stakeholders such as doctors and nurses for monitoring patients. It enables to provide high-quality treatment irrespective of geographical conditions and remotely enabled. However, the key requirement for telemedicine is a well-equipped infrastructure for remote monitoring and analysis. Cloud computing with key features of scalability, dynamic provisioning, and service cloud models promises to be the infrastructure for such requirement. In this paper, a healthcare-based automation system using cloud has been proposed that collects the required health data for analysis.
