Abstract

Mobile healthcare application development is now facing more challenges than before. How to improve the development speed is an important issue in this area. In this paper, we provide a framework to help developers build applications quickly and easily. Our framework has two features: (1) proposing a questionnaire-based healthcare framework to provide good extensibility for validating user input, judging medical rule and adding sensors. (2) Extending QTI to support sensor input in a questionnaire. We also demonstrate how to develop an application based on the framework.
