This special issue belongs to the section “Intelligent Sensors“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The objectives of this Special Issue are to advance personal healthcare, medical diagnosis, treatment, patient care, and patient safety through application of sensing technologies (e.g., Internet of Things (IoT)), mobile computing, and effective data management methodologies. Contributions will be solicited regarding the interdisciplinary design and application of relevant technologies to help to provide advanced mobile health care applications and infrastructures. The essence of the conference lies in its interdisciplinary nature, with original contributions cutting across boundaries but all within the sphere of the application of mobile communications (e.g., data ethics, technologies, international standards, new and existing solutions, methodologies) aiming at the betterment of patient care and patient safety. As such, the conference will have a multi-tier approach, going from wearable and implantable devices to ubiquitous patient monitoring environments (e.g., remote monitoring, healthcare surveillance and Public Health).
Authors of selected high-qualified papers from the conference will be invited to submit extended versions of their original papers (50% extensions of the contents of the conference paper) and contributions.
