Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing ((AISC,volume 798))

Abstract

The burden of chronic diseases is rising and it is increasing the mortality rate, morbidity rate, and healthcare cost. To shift from reactive care to preventive care is inevitable. The concept of eHealth is buzzing around for a considerable time but it is not utilized in preventive care. It inspires us to do a literature survey of some of the recent seminal research papers on ubiquitous data sensing and behavioral interventions to promote personal wellness. As the outcome of this survey, the research challenges and opportunities in this domain are presented. The possible research objective and research questions are framed for further research in this field. Based on the knowledge gained from the survey analysis, a novel personalized behavior feedback-cum-intervention framework using smartphone-based data sensing is presented.
