  • Abstract
    Social Networks have contributed the development of e-Health 2.0, which offers promising features of e-Health services any-time and anywhere. In this paper, we address the challenges of adding ubiquity in e-Health 2.0 applications and propose a ubiquity stack that is specialized in capturing temporal and spatial context of a user and can map necessary e-Health services and associated community of interest dynamically. We present our initial proof of concept framework implementation and test results.
