Design energy-efficient mobile systems for healthcare | |||

Mobile systems, such as mobile phones and PDAs, are a natural computing
platform to provide mobile healthcare. We have set out to build Orbit, a
three-level mobile computing platform, for collecting health information and
delivering health-promoting messages. The first level consists of wireless
body-worn sensors and auxiliary user interfaces; the second level is a
wireless Internet-capable mobile system, which also manages the wireless
body-area network; the third level is an Internet server that provides
superior computing and medical knowledge and bridges the user and his/her
health care professionals. However, such a platform faces a grave energy
challenge in the first two levels. This talk will highlight this challenge
and presents our initial results toward meeting it.
