“…Nine of the papers (approx. 42 case studies that focus on monitoring heart rate using electrocardiogram (ECG) sensors. They were selected for two reasons: (i) the case study has become an exemplar in this area, and (ii) the case study has a wide range of potential benefits for patients, because heartbeats are used to diagnose a multitude of diseases such as heart problems, pulmonary pathologies, cardiovascular diseases, and even stress.…”

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) refer to the next generation of ICT systems that mainly integrate sensing, computing, and communication to monitor, control, and interact with a physical process to provide citizens and businesses with smart applications and services: healthcare, smart homes, smart cities, and so on. In recent years, healthcare has become one of the most important services due to the continuous increases in its costs. This has motivated extensive research on healthcare CPS, and some of that research has focused on describing the software architecture behind these systems. However, there is no secondary study to consolidate the research. This paper aims to identify and compare existing research on software architectures for healthcare CPS in order to determine successful solutions that could guide other architects and practitioners in their healthcare projects. We conducted a systematic literature review (SLR) and compared the selected studies based on a characterization schema. The research synthesis results in a knowledge base of software architectures for healthcare CPS, describing their stakeholders, functional and non-functional features, quality attributes architectural views and styles, components, and implementation technologies. This SLR also identifies research gaps, such as the lack of open common platforms, as well as directions for future research.

The infusion of information communication technology (ICT) into health services is emerging as an active area of research. It has several advantages but perhaps the most important one is providing medical benefits to one and all irrespective of geographic boundaries in a cost effective manner, providing global expertise and holistic services, in a time bound manner. This paper provides a systematic review of technological growth in eHealth services. The present study reviews and analyzes the role of four important technologies, namely, satellite, internet, mobile, and cloud for providing health services.

“…Due to the exponential growth of commercial wearable devices [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] and mobile apps [29][30][31], it has become increasingly possible to remotely monitor a patient or citizen's health by connecting heterogeneous medical devices into an IoT platform [18][19][20]. A promising trend in healthcare fields appears that the IoT enabled technology is transforming traditional hubs of healthcare, such as clinics and hospitals, to personalized healthcare systems and especially mobile environments.…”
