Abstract

The advancement of the Internet of Things and wireless sensors has paved the way for the development of new services for next-generation healthcare systems to enable superior communication between healthcare professionals. This paper presents key components of the Wiki-Health Analysis Framework, which enables an ecosystem to support scientists, developers, and professionals to publish their data analysis models as utilities in the cloud and allow users to access those services and utilise their collected sensor data without any expert knowledge. The feasibility of this approach is supported by an ECG-based health monitoring service application deployed in addition to the Wiki-Health platform.
