Abstract :
In this paper, we present the design of JTang HSS (JTang Healthcare Service Platform for the Senior), a healthcare service platform for the senior based on cloud computing technology. In our system, services provided by third parties such as hospitals, physical examination centers, communities and some other institutions, can be integrated, managed and optimized seamlessly. The platform contains three subsystems, which are health services bus platform (HSB), Middleware Platform (MP) and health services library (HSL). HSB is constructed to facilitate data access for third parties. Meanwhile, we build the health data center to recommend services in a personalized manner based on middleware platform. Further, external services and platform owned services are orchestrated and integrated to a health services library, which supports an end-to-end process and supplies application services for the senior. The goal of the platform is to provide overall management and sufficient services in all aspects of healthcare of the senior. In detail, application services mainly include data collecting, health status assessing, entertainment supplying, social interaction, etc. Most of the services are provided as mobile applications running in devices like mobile phones and tablet computers.
