Human-cloud Integration In Next Generation Healthcare Systems For Wearable Devices

With the rapid development of the Internet of Things, cloud computing, and big data, more comprehensive and powerful applications become available. Meanwhile, people pay more attention to “terminal-cloud” integrated system. Specifically, both advanced terminal technologies (e.g., smart clothing) and advanced cloud technologies (e.g., big data analytics and cognitive computing in clouds) are expected to provide people with more reliable and intelligent services. Therefore, in this article we propose a Wearable healthcare system to improve reliability of the next generation healthcare system. In the proposed system, wearable devices which consists of sensors, and wires, is the critical component to collect users’ physiological data and receive the analysis results of users’ health and emotional status provided by cloud-based machine intelligence.
