Data security in u-Health system can be an important issue because wireless network is vulnerable to hacking. However, it is not easy to implement a proper security algorithm in an embedded u-health monitoring because of hardware constraints such as low performance, power consumption and limited memory size and etc. To secure data that contain personal and biosignal information, we implemented ...

background: different kinds and models of personal dosimeters are used in individual monitoring by workers.  performance testing as part of approval procedures is carried out to demonstrate that the essential performance specifications are routinely maintained. there are four service providers in iran which use different luminescence techniques (i. e. tld and rpl) with various kinds of dosimete...

Wearable health monitoring systems have gained considerable interest in recent years owing to their tremendous promise for personal portable health watching and remote medical practices. The sensors with excellent flexibility and stretchability are crucial components that can provide health monitoring systems with the capability of continuously tracking physiological signals of human body witho...

Scientifically valid exposure assessment is crucial to risk assessment, risk management, and prevention of environmental disease. Scientists have used three tools to assess exposure: exposure history/questionnaire, environmental monitoring (including personal monitoring), and biological monitoring. Combinations of these tools usually provide the exposure information needed to meet objectives of...

Personal aids for mobility and monitoring (PAMM), for the elderly are presented. The devices are intended to delay the transition from eldercare (assisted living) facilities to nursing homes. The robotic PAMMs provide support, guidance, and health monitoring. Issues of mobility, sensing, and control as well as experimental data from trials in an assisted living facility using both systems are p...

The paper aims to contribute to the development of pro-active Virtual Organization (VO) management. A method called “VO qualitative monitoring” is proposed based on the analysis and monitoring of VO success factors. The approach is applicable especially for VOs which have abstract objectives (difficult to measure quantitatively) and require personal and organizational commitment. Also the first...

Wearable sensors are increasingly finding their way into applications of kinesthetic sensing, personal health monitoring, and smart prosthetics/robotics. A graphene-based composite fiber sensor with a "compression spring" structure is fabricated, featuring the ability of detecting multiple kinds of deformation. This fiber sensor is integrated into wearable sensors for monitoring human activitie...

in recent years, the usefulness of intracranial pressure (icp) monitoring has been questioned in several reports for traumatic brain injury (tbi) management. therefore the needs of multidisciplinary groups of discussion of neurosurgeons and neurointensivists to update practical applications of icp in severe adult tbi has been advocated in many parts of the world. a consensus conference was held...

Project Monitomation is a unique implementation which focuses on justifying the capability of smart wireless networks based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard, for low power, short range Personal Area Network (PAN) communication. Through this project wireless text messaging, device control & network monitoring is implemented to demonstrate the future of Internet of things . Keywordsautomation; labview; ...
