    The rapidly increasing medical data generated from hospital information system (HIS) signifies the era of Big Data in the healthcare domain. These data hold great value to the workflow management, patient care and treatment, scientific research, and education in the healthcare industry. However, the complex, distributed, and highly interdisciplinary nature of medical data has underscored the limitations of traditional data analysis capabilities of data accessing, storage, processing, analyzing, distributing, and sharing. New and efficient technologies are becoming necessary to obtain the wealth of information and knowledge underlying medical Big Data. This chapter discusses medical Big Data analysis in HIS, including an introduction to the fundamental concepts, related platforms and technologies of medical Big Data processing, and advanced Big Data processing technologies

    The medical industry is experiencing an increase in the amount of data generated in terms of complexity, diversity, and timeliness; the industry increasingly relies on the collection and analysis of data. Therefore, to make better decisions, we need to collect data and conduct effective analysis. The cloud is a good choice for on-demand services for storing, processing, and analyzing data. Medical data released and shared through the cloud are very popular in practice, and information and knowledge bases can be enriched and shared through the cloud. The revolution presented by the cloud and big data can have a huge impact on the healthcare industry, and a new healthcare system is evolving. This is why we need to design a more appropriate health care system to meet the challenges presented by this revolution. The diversity of data sources requires a uniform standard of heterogeneous data management. On the one hand, due to the diversification of medical equipment, the data formats and the amount of data generated by various devices may be quite different, which requires that the system support data access by various medical devices to ensure high scalability and satisfy actual medical needs. On the other hand, the system needs to convert the received data into a unified standard to improve the efficiency of data storage, query, retrieval, processing, and analysis. This paper presents Review Study On Existing Computational Healthcare Tools For Sustainability

    We concentrate on the importance and future conceptual development of wearable devices as the major means of personalized healthcare. We discuss and address the role of wearables in the new era of healthcare in proactive medicine. This work addresses the behavioral, environmental, physiological, and psychological parameters as the most effective domains in personalized healthcare, and the wearables are categorized according to the range of measurements. The importance of multi-parameter, multi-domain monitoring and the respective interactions are further discussed and the generation of wearables based on the number of monitoring area(s) is consequently formulated

    As data being produced by IoT applications continues to explode, there is a growing need to bring computing power closer to the source of the data to meet the response time, power dissipation and cost goals of performance-critical applications in various domains like the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Automated Driving, Medical Imaging or Surveillance among others. This paper proposes a data collection and utilization framework that allows runtime platform and application data to be sent to an edge and cloud system via data collection agents running close to the platform. Agents are connected to a cloud system able to train AI models to improve overall energy efficiency of an AI application executed on an edge platform. In the implementation part, we show the benefits of FPGA-based platform for the task of object detection. Furthermore, we show that it is feasible to collect relevant data from an FPGA platform, transmit the data to a cloud system for processing and receiving feedback actions to execute an edge AI application energy efficiently. As future work, we foresee the possibility to train, deploy and continuously improve a base model able to efficiently adapt the execution of edge applications
