Book (italiano):
Editors Coronato and De Pietro (high performance computing and networking, Italian National Research Council) and 46 co-contributors address pervasive healthcare--the use of wireless, mobile, and intelligent technologies--and how it can address the increase in lifestyle-related disease and chronic illness and the demand for more effective, less expensive, and faster healthcare from consumers. This book is intended to assist the information and communications technology sector to design and develop advanced pervasive healthcare applications and healthcare providers who want to align their business procedures to meet the growing demand. Topics include: smart homes, nursing homes, mobile patient monitoring, sensor networks security for pervasive healthcare, communication issues, and economic and organizational factors.
