Abstract

This paper introduces an ontological approach to designing an integration platform for mobile telemedicine (MTM) services based on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Semantic Web technologies. The meta-ontology is the core element of the platform, which coordinates the process of service registration and discovery between heterogeneous tele-medical applications, operating in a mobile environment while considering mobile, medical and environmental dynamic attributes.
