“…Together with various other solutions, Pagoropoulos et al underscore the importance of relational database management systems (RDBMS) and database handling systems in waste handling, where they facilitate decision-making, leading to the re-planning of the value network [80]. Hatzivasilis et al present main defense mechanisms for providing end-to-end data security and privacy, facilitating the integration of big data, Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) with the CE and contributing to the optimized use of assets [81].…”

The concept of circular economy (CE) is becoming progressively popular with academia, industry, and policymakers, as a potential path towards a more sustainable economic system. Information and communication technology (ICT) systems have influenced every aspect of modern life and the CE is no exception. Cutting-edge technologies, such as big data, cloud computing, cyber-physical systems, internet of things, virtual and augmented reality, and blockchain, can play an integral role in the embracing of CE concepts and the rollout of CE programs by governments, organizations, and society as a whole. The current paper conducts an extensive academic literature review on prominent ICT solutions paving the way towards a CE. For the categorization of the solutions, a novel two-fold approach is introduced, focusing on both the technological aspect of the solutions (e.g., communications, computing, data analysis, etc.), and the main CE concept(s) employed (i.e., reduce, reuse, recycle and restore) that each solution is the most relevant to. The role of each solution in the transition to CE is highlighted. Results suggest that ICT solutions related to data collection and data analysis, and in particular to the internet of things, blockchain, digital platforms, artificial intelligence algorithms, and software tools, are amongst the most popular solutions proposed by academic researchers. Results also suggest that greater emphasis is placed on the “reduce” component of the CE, although ICT solutions for the other “R” components, as well as holistic ICT-based solutions, do exist as well. Specific important challenges impeding the adoption of ICT solutions for the CE are also identified and reviewed, with consumer and business attitude, economic costs, possible environmental impacts, lack of education around the CE, and lack of familiarization with modern technologies being found among the most prominent ones.

“…Such surveys have primarily focused on WBANs in terms of wireless medical sensor networks [43], Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks [44] and body-to-body sensor networks [47]. There are some reviews that have investigated Internet of Things (IoT) for medical applications [48]- [51], as well as cloud-based EHRs [52] and Mobile Cloud Computing [53]. These reviews represent a concentrated body of knowledge about the challenges and solutions on security for resourceconstrained devices and cloud services, so as to ensure confidentiality of data in-transit (over network) and at-rest (residing in devices or servers).…”

Security and Privacy for mHealth and uHealth Systems: A Systematic Mapping Study

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

An increased adoption of mobile health (mHealth) and ubiquitous health (uHealth) systems empower users with handheld devices and embedded sensors for a broad range of healthcare services. However, m/uHealth systems face significant challenges related to data security and privacy that must be addressed to increase the pervasiveness of such systems. This study aims to systematically identify, classify, compare, and evaluate state-of-the-art on security and privacy of m/uHealth systems. We conducted a systematic mapping study (SMS) based on 365 qualitatively selected studies to (i) classify the types, frequency, and demography of published research, (ii) synthesize and categorize research themes, (iii) recurring challenges, (iv) prominent solutions (i.e., research outcomes) and their (v) reported evaluations (i.e., practical validations). Results suggest that the existing research on security and privacy of m/uHealth systems primarily focuses on select group of control families (compliant with NIST800-53), protection of systems and information, access control, authentication, individual participation, and privacy authorisation. In contrast, areas of data governance, security and privacy policies, and program management are underrepresented, although these are critical to most of the organizations that employ m/uHealth systems. Most research proposes new solutions with limited validation, reflecting a lack of evaluation of security and privacy of m/uHealth in the real world. Empirical research, development, and validation of m/uHealth security and privacy is still incipient, which may discourage practitioners from readily adopting solutions from the literature. This SMS facilitates knowledge transfer, enabling researchers and practitioners to engineer security and privacy for emerging and next generation of m/uHealth systems.
