최근에 우리 사회는 급격히 증가하는 만성질환으로 위기에 처해있다. 진보된 의료기술도 여전히 만성 질환을 완벽히 진료해 주지 못하고 있다. 현대 사회의 많은 사람들은 긴 수명을 보장받는 대신에 만성질환 장애를 가지게 되었고 비싼 의료 비용은 심각한사회 문제로 대두되고 있다. IT가 발달함에 따라 병원 중심의 치료서비스에서 개인과 주치의가 상호 긴밀하게 협력하여 질병의 예방, 관리, 건강증진 등을 제공하는 u-Healthcare 시스템이 빠르게 발전하고 있다. u-Healthcare 시스템은 개인 건강 기기로부터 측정된 생체 정보 데이터가 병원과 주치의에게 전달되어 언제 어디서나 검사 및 피드백이 가능하도록 하는 것이 목적이다. 본 논문에서는 유헬스케어 시스템에 발 맞추어 스마트 폰 기반의 만성질환자를 위한 u-DailyCare 시스템의 설계한다. 스마트폰 사용자로부터 얻어진 행위 데이터 및 생체 정보 데이터를 수집하여 서버에 보내면, 이 정보들을 바탕으로 주치의 혹은 병원에서 실시간으로 데이터를 분석하여 피드백을 준다. 본 논문의 특징으로는 키넥트 카메라와 신체 활동을 측정하는 MET 단위를 사용하여 정확한 행위 데이터 측정과 분석에 도움을 주었다. 이로써 주치의는 환자에게 좀더 정확하고 정교한 피드백을 전달할 수 있다.

Although the demand for histopathological examinations has been increasing, medical accidents in management of specimens also have been increasing because most of the examinations are processed manually which can cause careless handing, confusing information and mismatching during the procedure. In the future, histopatological examination will be used frequently for handing incurable diseases and verification of new drug. Thus, efficient and error-free management system for handling personalized medical history and test results is infallibly necessary. In this paper, I have proposed an integrated printing system for informatization of histopathological examination that support the u-Healthcare environment based on RFID in near future. The proposed system supports systematization of whole examination process and information of pathological samples. This system will contribute to reduction of costs, improvement of operational efficiency, and mostly fundamental prevention of medical accidents.

With ubiquitous computing aid, it can improve human being's life quality if all people have more convenient medical service under pervasive computing environment. In this paper, for a pervasive health care application for diabetes patient, we've implemented a health care system, which is composed of three parts. Various sensors monitor both outer and inner environment of human such as temperature, blood pressure, pulse, and glycemic index, etc. These sensors form zigbee-based sensor network. And as a backend, medical information server accumulates sensing data and performs back-end processing. To simply transfer these sensing values to a medical team may be a low level's medical service. So, we've designed a model with context awareness for more improved medical service which is based on ART(adaptive resonance theory) neural network. Our experiments show that a proposed healthcare system can provide improved medical service because it can recognize current context of patient more concretely.

Introduction of new longterm care policy for elderly in Korea would change many aspects of elderly care service facilities. Especially elderly home care services like adult daycare centers will expand drastically after beginning of longterm care insurance. The purpose of this study is to estimate demand of adult daycare centers by comparing with the U.S and Japanese cases. Korean government is expecting that adult daycare centers will expand ten times within 4 years. This estimate is exceeding the facility demand estimate of the U.S. and Japan. The results of population study and expecting growth rate of adult daycare centers in Seoul indicate that more than 300 centers, 4 times of the number of existing centers, are in need based on Seoul elderly population in 2004. To supply these numbers of facilities in short period, more in depth study should be followed. Existing adult daycare facilities' in Seoul were analyzed by their building and management types. Interior spaces of adult daycare centers in Korea are similar to the U.S. and Japan in space arrangements but much smaller in size. In depth study of space programming as well as overall demand survey of adult daycare centers is urgently in need for more realistic expansion of adult daycare centers.

The WBAN technology means a short distance wireless network which provides each device's interactive communication by connecting devices inside and outside of body located within 3 meters. Standardization on the physical layer, data link layer, network layer and application layer is in progress by IEEE 802.15.6 TG BAN. It is necessary to develop the WBAN core technology that sensor node device, WBAN middleware and WBAN application service for WBAN environment. In this paper we designed the medical message structure and implemented medical application for purpose of vital information reliability. The message structure was proposed for WBAN environment and application can be check biometric information from BN on smart device through WBAN gateway.

Recently, it is emerging in computing industry related ubiquitous. Also U-Healthcare system develops rapidly based on this trends. It is required system of health-status information to check user's health information on real-time and wireless network environment. Consequently, in this paper propose a health-Information system based on wireless and real-time environment. It can check a tremor pulse with method of photo-plethysmography. It convert pulse state information into 2-dimension bar code in order to confirm health information using mobile and also this system provide service of pulse visual record and explanation from specialist with MMS.

The Mobile device like smart phone is a small computing device and easy to carry around. The Mobile devices are wildly being used as desktop personal computer and can served individual services. Because of compatibility of applications working on mobile devices are not good, so developer need to develop it that match changes in platform fetures. In this paper, we design and implementate ubiquitous healthcare monitoring system that can be runs on many different platforms using HTML5 as a standard web development language and jQuery as a javascript library. Ubiquitous healthcare monitoring system is runs on on many different platforms like mobile platforms and desktop web browsers.

u-Health is a representative realization method of ubiquitous IT and it is being embossed as an industry that can make our lives abundant. Through the u-Health, the diagnosis will go beyond the restriction of space, which is based on hospital, and be positioned as a universal value in a daily life by combining diagnosis and life naturally. The purpose of this study is to suggest systematic, intelligent, mobile medical information system that has the same effect as the assistant of specialist by providing scientific and objective knowledge, which is suitable for u-Health age. Mobile medical information system can provide user with the opinion of specialist by planting the experience, knowledge and decision making process of specialist that are necessary for solving the problem requiring special medical knowledge and passing through an inference process.

ularly, a points of view Health-care system, it can reduce costs and efforts in order to management of patients. However, Health-care system keep a level of service for person and extends of hospital inner parts system. Although the rate of an addict grow by alcoholic but it is difficult to manage and diagnosis because of patient data gathering. Therefore in this thesis, it is proposed to patient data gathering and monitering method in u-zone. It can collect patient data by pulse, temperature and acceleration sensor and it can diagnosis correct based on emotion change data.

Counselling between a patient and a doctor is crucial in telemedicine. In order for the doctor to examine the patient accurately, it needs an auscultation, at least. Currently, some video conference systems are implemented but it is hard to use them in the case of an cardiac disorder, because the patients suffering from cardiac disorder cannot be examined by a stethoscope over Internet. To solve this problem, the remote counselling service has to support real time transmission of the heart sound of the patient. In this paper, we present a remote counselling system with stethoscope. We also design and implement the system in order for health monitor to connect the patient with his attending physician for the environment of u-healthcare service. The proposed system supports a mobility for doctor and patient by exchanging IP addresses at an user authentication protocol. The system implemented by this paper can be used for cardiac patients in remote clinical setting in the future.
