Abstract

The advancement in ubiquitous healthcare specifically in preventive healthcare can lead to longer life expectancy especially for the elderly patients. To aid in preventing premature loss of lives as well as lengthening life span, this research aims to implement the use of mobile and wireless sensor technology to improve the quality of life and lengthen life expectancy. The threats to privacy and security have received increasing attention as ubiquitous healthcare applications over the Internet become more prevalent, mobile and universal. Therefore, we propose Context-aware Service of U-Healthcare Application based Knowledge using Ontology in secure health information exchange. This research also applies ontology in secure information exchange to support knowledge base, context modeling, and context reasoning by applying the general application areas for ontologies to the domain of context in ubiquitous computing environments. This paper also demonstrates how knowledge base, context technologies, and mobile web services can help enhance the quality of services in preventive ubiquitous healthcare to elderly patients.

예방 의료에서 유비쿼터스 헬스케어는 노인 환자들의 수명연장에 대한 연구로 발전되고 있다. 이와 같은 연구들은 수명 연장 및 불의의 사고를 예방하기 위하여 모바일과 무선센서 기술을 사용하여 삶의 질을 향상 시켜 수명을 연장시키고 있다. 그러나 인터넷을 통해 유비쿼터스 헬스케어 응용프로그램이 모바일화 및 보급이 용이해짐에 따라 u-헬스정보 보호와 보안에 대한 위협이 증가하고 관심을 받고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 보안 헬스 정보 교환 기술을 적용한 온톨로지를 이용하는 유헬스 케어 어플리케이션의 지식기반 상황인식 서비스 프레임워크를 제안한다. 본 연구에서는 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서 상황 영역의 보안 헬스 정보 교환 기술을 적용한 온톨로지를 위한 보편적인 어플리케이션 영역에서 상황 추론, 상황 모델링, 지식 기반 지원을 적용하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 예방 서비스 질 변화를 위한 모바일 웹서비스, 상황 기술, 지식베이스에 대하여 논의한다.
