The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is increasingly being used for healthcare purposes. IoMT enables many sensors to collect patient data from various locations and send it to a distributed hospital for further study. IoMT provides patients with a variety of paid programmes to help them keep track of their health problems. However, the current system services are expensive, and offloaded data in the healthcare network are insecure. The research develops a new, cost-effective and stable IoMT framework based on a blockchain-enabled fog cloud. The study aims to reduce the cost of healthcare application services as they are processing in the system. The study devises an IoMT system based on different algorithm techniques, such as Blockchain-Enable Smart-Contract Cost-Efficient Scheduling Algorithm Framework (BECSAF) schemes. Smart-Contract Blockchain schemes ensure data consistency and validation with symmetric cryptography. However, due to the different workflow tasks scheduled on other nodes, the heterogeneous, earliest finish, time-based scheduling deals with execution under their deadlines. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm schemes outperform all existing baseline approaches in terms of the implementation of applications.
The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is increasingly being used to secure blockchain technology to operate healthcare applications in a distributed network. The applications are mobile and can move from one place to another with different wireless connectivity. However, there are a lot of challenges that are investigated further. For instance, dynamic content values changed during mobile applications during any business goal. The workflow healthcare applications are complex as compared to coarse‐grained and fine‐grained workload in IoMT. In this article, the study analyzed offloading and scheduling problems for healthcare workflows in IoMT fog‐cloud network. Therefore, the study considered the problem as an offloading and scheduling problem formulated deep reinforcement learning as Markov problem. The study devises the novel deep reinforcement learning and blockchain‐enabled system, consisting of multi‐criteria offloading based on deep reinforcement learning policies and blockchain task scheduling with task sequencing and research matching methods for healthcare workloads in the IoMT system. The simulation results suggested strategies that reduced the communication and computation time for each application in the system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
