A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW OF CLOUD
COMPUTING IN EHEALTH
Yan Hu and Guohua Bai
Department of Creative Technologies, Blekinge Institute of Technology, Sweden
ABSTRACT
Cloud computing in eHealthis an emerging area for only few years. There needs to identify the
state of the art and pinpoint challenges and possible directions for researchers and applications
developers. Based on this need, we have conducted a systematic review of cloud computing in
eHealth. We searched ACM Digital Library, IEEE Xplore, Inspec, ISI Web of Science and
Springer as well as relevant open-access journals for relevant articles. A total of 237 studies were
first searched, of which 44 papers met the Include Criteria. The studies identified three types of
studied areas about cloud computing in eHealth, namely (1) cloud-based eHealth framework
design (n=13);(2) applications of cloud computing (n=17); and (3) security or privacy control
mechanisms of healthcare data in the cloud (n=14). Most of the studies in the review were about
designs and concept-proof. Only very few studies have evaluated their research in the real world,
which may indicate that the application of cloud computing in eHealth is still very immature.
However, our presented review could pinpoint that a hybrid cloud platform with mixed access
control and security protection mechanisms will be a main research area for developing citizen
centred home-based healthcare applications.

PARKINSON'S DISEASE MOTOR SYMPTOMS IN MACHINE
LEARNING: A REVIEW
Claas Ahlrichs and Michael Lawo
Mathematics and Computer Science, University of Bremen, PO Box 330 440, 28334 ,Bremen, Germany
ABSTRACT
This paper reviews related work and state-of-the-art publications for recognizing motor symptoms of
Parkinson's Disease (PD). It presents research efforts that were undertaken to inform on how well
traditional machine learning algorithms can handle this task. In particular, four PD related motor
symptoms are highlighted (i.e. tremor, bradykinesia, freezing of gait and dyskinesia) and their details
summarized. Thus the primary objective of this research is to provide a literary foundation for
development and improvement of algorithms for detecting PD related motor symptoms.

ABSTRACT
Telemedicine is a well-known application where enormous amount of medical data need to be
securely transferred over the public network and manipulate effectively. Medical image
watermarking is an appropriate method used for enhancing security and authentication of
medical data, which is crucial and used for further diagnosis and reference. This project focuses
on the study of medical image watermarking methods for protecting and authenticating medical
data. Additionally, it covers algorithm for application of water marking technique on Region of
Non Interest (RONI) of the medical image preserving Region of Interest (ROI). The medical
images can be transferred securely by embedding watermarks in RONI allowing verification of
the legitimate changes at the receiving end without affecting ROI. Segmentation plays an
important role in medical image processing for separating the ROI from medical image. The
proposed system separate the ROI from medical image by GUI based approach, which works
for all types of medical images. The experimental results show the satisfactory performance of
the system to authenticate the medical images preserving ROI.

ABSTRACT
In many countries, the health care sector is entering into a time of unprecedented change.
Electronic Medical Record (EMR) has been introduced into healthcare organizations in order to
incorporate better use of technology, to aid decision making, and to facilitate the search for
medical solution. This needs those professionals in healthcare organizations to be in the process of
changing from the use of paper to maintain medical records into computerized medical
recordkeeping opportunities. However, the adoption of these electronic medical records systems
has been slow throughout the healthcare field. The critical users are physicians which play an
important role to success of health information technology including Electronic Medical Record
systems. As a result user adoption is necessary in order to understand the benefits of an EMR.
Therefore, in the current paper, a model of ranking factors of micro-level in EMRs adoption was
developed. Surveys distributed to physicians as this study’s respondent in two private hospitals in
Malaysia. The findings indicate that physicians have a high perception means for the technology
and showed that EMR would increase physician’s performance regarding to decision making.
They have been and continue to be positively motivated to adopt and use the system. The relevant
factors according to micro-level perspective prioritized and ranked by using the Technique for
Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). The aim of ranking and using this
approach is to investigate which factors are more important in EMRs adoption from the micro-
level perspectives. The results of performing TOPSIS is as a novelty which assist health
information systems (HIS) success and also healthcare organizations to motivate their users in
accepting of new technology.

ABSTRACT
Blood Donation and Blood Transfusion Services (BTS) are crucial for saving people’s lives.
Recently, worldwide efforts have been undertaken to utilize social media and smartphone
applications to make the blood donation process more convenient, offer additional services,
and create communities around blood donation centers. Blood banks suffer frequent shortage
of blood;hence, advertisements are frequently seen on social networks urging healthy
individuals to donate blood for patients who urgently require blood transfusion. The blood
donation processusuallyconsumesa lot of time and effort from both donors and medical staff
since there is no concrete information system that allows donorsand blood donation centers
communicate efficiently and coordinate with each other tominimize time and effort required
for blood donation process. Moreover, most blood banks work in isolation and are not
integrated with other blood donation centers and health organizations which affect the blood
donation and blood transfusion services’ quality. This work aims at developing a Blood
Donation System (BDS) based on the cutting-edge information technologies of cloud
computing and mobile computing. The proposedsystem facilitates communication between
blood donorsand blood donation centers and integrates the blood information dispersed
among different blood donation centers and health organizations acrossa
country.Stakeholders will be able to use the BDS as an application installed on their
smartphones to help them complete the blood donation process with minimal effort and time.
Thisapplication helps people receive notifications on urgent blood donation calls, know their
eligibility to give blood, search for the nearest blood center, and reserve a convenient
appointment using temporal and/or spatial information. It also helps establish a blood
donation community through social networks such as Facebook and Twitter.

ABSTRACT
The Memristor was predicted by Prof. L. Chua in 1971 and first prototype was reported by team of HP
researcher. The memristor follows interesting relation in the view of magnetic flux and charge. There
are tremendous applications areas emerged out in the framework of memristor in last few years. The
applications in the Memory Technology, Neuromorphic Hardware solution, Soft Computing are name
of few. The memristor was hidden at many instances in biomedical fields, but recently reported
literature revels that memristor is universal part of medical diagnosis. In the bird eye view of this
scenario, this paper deals with elementary note on the skin hydration measurement using memristor.

DEVELOPMENT OF A RESPIRATION RATE METER –A LOW-COST DESIGN
APPROACH
Souvik Das
Department of Biomedical Engineering JIS College of Engineering, West Bengal, India
ABSTRACT
Measurement of physiological parameters like respiration rate is crucial in field of medicine.
Respiration rate can indicate the state of rhythmic behaviour of heart and proper gaseous exchange in
blood. As per Medical research, respiratory rate is regarded as the marker of pulmonary dysfunction.
Respiration rate meters are used in measuring CO2 in expired air and in apnea detectors. It is also used
in daily physiological tests like stress-o-meter for assessing ones level of stress that he/she can perceive
in life after monitoring respiration rate, pulse rate and heart rate. This paper shed lights on the
development of a lowcost respiration rate meter using infrared sensing and associated digital electronic
circuitry. The proposed device is able to measure respiration rate in the range of 0-999
respirations/minute.

MHEALTH APPLICATIONS DEVELOPED BY THE MINISTRY
OF HEALTH FOR PUBLIC USERS INKSA: A PERSUASIVE
SYSTEMS DESIGN EVALUATION

Information Systems, KKU University, Abha, KSA
ABSTRACT
mHealth applications have shown promise in supporting the delivery of health services in
peoples’ daily life. Recently, the Ministry of Health in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (MOH)
has launched several mHealth applications to develop work mechanisms. Our study aimed to
identify and understand the design of mHealth apps by classifying their persuasive features
using the Persuasive Systems Design (PSD) model and expert evaluation method. This paper
presents the distinct persuasive features applied in recent applications launched by MOH for
public users called “Sehha & Mawid” Apps. The results revealed the extensive use of
persuasive features; particularly features related to credibility support, dialogue support and
primary task support respectively. The implementation and design of social support features
were found to be poor; this could be due to the nature of the apps or lack of knowledge from
the developers’ perspectives. The findings suggest some features that may improve the
persuasion for the evaluated apps.

  • 2. A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW OF CLOUD COMPUTING IN EHEALTH Yan Hu and Guohua Bai Department of Creative Technologies, Blekinge Institute of Technology, Sweden ABSTRACT Cloud computing in eHealthis an emerging area for only few years. There needs to identify the state of the art and pinpoint challenges and possible directions for researchers and applications developers. Based on this need, we have conducted a systematic review of cloud computing in eHealth. We searched ACM Digital Library, IEEE Xplore, Inspec, ISI Web of Science and Springer as well as relevant open-access journals for relevant articles. A total of 237 studies were first searched, of which 44 papers met the Include Criteria. The studies identified three types of studied areas about cloud computing in eHealth, namely (1) cloud-based eHealth framework design (n=13);(2) applications of cloud computing (n=17); and (3) security or privacy control mechanisms of healthcare data in the cloud (n=14). Most of the studies in the review were about designs and concept-proof. Only very few studies have evaluated their research in the real world, which may indicate that the application of cloud computing in eHealth is still very immature. However, our presented review could pinpoint that a hybrid cloud platform with mixed access control and security protection mechanisms will be a main research area for developing citizen centred home-based healthcare applications.

PARKINSON'S DISEASE MOTOR SYMPTOMS IN MACHINE LEARNING: A REVIEW Claas Ahlrichs and Michael Lawo Mathematics and Computer Science, University of Bremen, PO Box 330 440, 28334 ,Bremen, Germany ABSTRACT This paper reviews related work and state-of-the-art publications for recognizing motor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease (PD). It presents research efforts that were undertaken to inform on how well traditional machine learning algorithms can handle this task. In particular, four PD related motor symptoms are highlighted (i.e. tremor, bradykinesia, freezing of gait and dyskinesia) and their details summarized. Thus the primary objective of this research is to provide a literary foundation for development and improvement of algorithms for detecting PD related motor symptoms.

Inamdar2 1Department of Computer Engineering, College of Engineering Pune, Shivajinagar, Pune University, Maharashtra, India 2Department of Computer Engineering, College of Engineering Pune, Shivajinagar, Pune University, Maharashtra, India ABSTRACT Telemedicine is a well-known application where enormous amount of medical data need to be securely transferred over the public network and manipulate effectively. Medical image watermarking is an appropriate method used for enhancing security and authentication of medical data, which is crucial and used for further diagnosis and reference. This project focuses on the study of medical image watermarking methods for protecting and authenticating medical data. Additionally, it covers algorithm for application of water marking technique on Region of Non Interest (RONI) of the medical image preserving Region of Interest (ROI). The medical images can be transferred securely by embedding watermarks in RONI allowing verification of the legitimate changes at the receiving end without affecting ROI. Segmentation plays an important role in medical image processing for separating the ROI from medical image. The proposed system separate the ROI from medical image by GUI based approach, which works for all types of medical images. The experimental results show the satisfactory performance of the system to authenticate the medical images preserving ROI.

RANKING THE MICRO LEVEL CRITICAL FACTORS OF ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORDS ADOPTION USING TOPSIS METHOD Hossein Ahmadi1 , Maryam Salahshour Rad2 , Mehrbakhsh Nilashi3,* , Othman Ibrahim4 , Alireza Almaee5 1,2,3,4 Faculty of Computing, Universiti Technologi Malaysia, Johor, Malaysia 5Department of Management, Rasht Payame Noor University, Rasht, Iran ABSTRACT In many countries, the health care sector is entering into a time of unprecedented change. Electronic Medical Record (EMR) has been introduced into healthcare organizations in order to incorporate better use of technology, to aid decision making, and to facilitate the search for medical solution. This needs those professionals in healthcare organizations to be in the process of changing from the use of paper to maintain medical records into computerized medical recordkeeping opportunities. However, the adoption of these electronic medical records systems has been slow throughout the healthcare field. The critical users are physicians which play an important role to success of health information technology including Electronic Medical Record systems. As a result user adoption is necessary in order to understand the benefits of an EMR. Therefore, in the current paper, a model of ranking factors of micro-level in EMRs adoption was developed. Surveys distributed to physicians as this study’s respondent in two private hospitals in Malaysia. The findings indicate that physicians have a high perception means for the technology and showed that EMR would increase physician’s performance regarding to decision making. They have been and continue to be positively motivated to adopt and use the system. The relevant factors according to micro-level perspective prioritized and ranked by using the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). The aim of ranking and using this approach is to investigate which factors are more important in EMRs adoption from the micro- level perspectives. The results of performing TOPSIS is as a novelty which assist health information systems (HIS) success and also healthcare organizations to motivate their users in accepting of new technology.

Youssef College of Computer and Information Sciences, King Saud University, Riyadh, KSA & Faculty of Engineering, Helwan University, Cairo, Egypt GamalAlshorbagy College of Computer and Information Sciences, King Saud University, Riyadh, KSA ABSTRACT Blood Donation and Blood Transfusion Services (BTS) are crucial for saving people’s lives. Recently, worldwide efforts have been undertaken to utilize social media and smartphone applications to make the blood donation process more convenient, offer additional services, and create communities around blood donation centers. Blood banks suffer frequent shortage of blood;hence, advertisements are frequently seen on social networks urging healthy individuals to donate blood for patients who urgently require blood transfusion. The blood donation processusuallyconsumesa lot of time and effort from both donors and medical staff since there is no concrete information system that allows donorsand blood donation centers communicate efficiently and coordinate with each other tominimize time and effort required for blood donation process. Moreover, most blood banks work in isolation and are not integrated with other blood donation centers and health organizations which affect the blood donation and blood transfusion services’ quality. This work aims at developing a Blood Donation System (BDS) based on the cutting-edge information technologies of cloud computing and mobile computing. The proposedsystem facilitates communication between blood donorsand blood donation centers and integrates the blood information dispersed among different blood donation centers and health organizations acrossa country.Stakeholders will be able to use the BDS as an application installed on their smartphones to help them complete the blood donation process with minimal effort and time. Thisapplication helps people receive notifications on urgent blood donation calls, know their eligibility to give blood, search for the nearest blood center, and reserve a convenient appointment using temporal and/or spatial information. It also helps establish a blood donation community through social networks such as Facebook and Twitter. KEYWORDS Blood donation systems; Cloud computing; Mobile computing; Ontology.

DEVELOPMENT OF A RESPIRATION RATE METER –A LOW-COST DESIGN APPROACH Souvik Das Department of Biomedical Engineering JIS College of Engineering, West Bengal, India ABSTRACT Measurement of physiological parameters like respiration rate is crucial in field of medicine. Respiration rate can indicate the state of rhythmic behaviour of heart and proper gaseous exchange in blood. As per Medical research, respiratory rate is regarded as the marker of pulmonary dysfunction. Respiration rate meters are used in measuring CO2 in expired air and in apnea detectors. It is also used in daily physiological tests like stress-o-meter for assessing ones level of stress that he/she can perceive in life after monitoring respiration rate, pulse rate and heart rate. This paper shed lights on the development of a lowcost respiration rate meter using infrared sensing and associated digital electronic circuitry. The proposed device is able to measure respiration rate in the range of 0-999 respirations/minute.

MHEALTH APPLICATIONS DEVELOPED BY THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH FOR PUBLIC USERS INKSA: A PERSUASIVE SYSTEMS DESIGN EVALUATION Asmaa Shati Department of Information Systems, IMSIU University, Riyadh, KSA Department of Information Systems, KKU University, Abha, KSA ABSTRACT mHealth applications have shown promise in supporting the delivery of health services in peoples’ daily life. Recently, the Ministry of Health in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (MOH) has launched several mHealth applications to develop work mechanisms. Our study aimed to identify and understand the design of mHealth apps by classifying their persuasive features using the Persuasive Systems Design (PSD) model and expert evaluation method. This paper presents the distinct persuasive features applied in recent applications launched by MOH for public users called “Sehha & Mawid” Apps. The results revealed the extensive use of persuasive features; particularly features related to credibility support, dialogue support and primary task support respectively. The implementation and design of social support features were found to be poor; this could be due to the nature of the apps or lack of knowledge from the developers’ perspectives. The findings suggest some features that may improve the persuasion for the evaluated apps. KEYWORDS Persuasion, mHealth apps, The persuasive systems design model (PSD), MOH, Persuasive features.
