Why is it important?
The healthcare industry is evolving with technologies like IoT and blockchain. Managing chronic diseases, such as diabetes, has been a challenge, and this research aims to make it more manageable. By integrating advanced computing paradigms, the proposed system not only improves scalability but also ensures increased security and resilience in healthcare systems, which is crucial for patient well-being.
Perspectives
The paper provides an overview of IoT architecture models and computing paradigms, emphasizing their unique features and limitations. It then proposes an advanced healthcare system architecture, focusing on diabetes management. The perspective here is to leverage technology to offer a more scalable, secure, and efficient healthcare system. Future work in this area could involve further refinement of the proposed architecture and exploring additional applications of the integrated technologies in healthcare.
