Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: According to development of web service technology and mobile device supply, mobile web service becomes an essential element of ubiquitous healthcare. But there are many constraints for offering mobile web services on mobile devices. Hence, this paper propose optimal system supplying web services about medical information in wired /wireless network according to resources of device. METHODS: Proposed system consists of web server, database, desktop subscriber, mobile device and mobile context server. When a mobile device requires the web service, a mobile context server rewrites and offers the equivalent contents provided from web server to suit the requiring device's resource. Our proposed system services the same medical information after its recomposition as the network and devices of user. RESULTS: The medical staff may require patient information in wired/wireless environment, web server and mobile context server supports their correct judgment and expeditious response by servicing optimized data of the patient according to the requiring device. CONCLUSION: Proposed system designed the wired/wireless integrated medical information system using web service and mobile web service as the bases of ubiquitous healthcare system. Not only for web service in wired network, to provide the optimal web service in wireless network, we should know the limited resource of mobile devices and appropriately divide the web contents of wired network to fit the mobile device's screen. The future research needs dynamic division of screen according to extension of medical information data.
