For the last decade wireless sensors, especially multi-modal sensor technologies have been developing for supporting healthcare services for elderly and children. The main motivation behind this is the fact that the world's expectations for an average lifetime is getting longer, thus increasing the costs of healthcare. The need for technological support on the subject has led wireless sensor technologies and sophisticated electronics to become within the reach of average users and research effort on the subject has attained much importance. The Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), which has already been used in retail and the wireless biological and environmental sensors have begun to be used in healthcare and smart remote monitoring applications. In this paper, we investigate the issues to be considered while designing smart remote monitoring applications and propose an appropriate architecture.

A smart couch design for improving the quality of life of the patients with cognitive diseases Bi̇li̇şsel rahatsizliklari olan ki̇şi̇ leri̇n yaşam kali̇tesi̇ni̇ artirmak i̇çi̇n akilli bi̇r koltuk tasarimi
Ertan, Halil; Alemdar, Hande; Incel, Özlem Durmaz; Ersoy, Cem (2012-07-09)
In this paper, we focus on the human activity recognition module of a homecare system that consists of wireless sensors developed for remotely monitoring patients with cognitive disorders, such as Alzheimer. To this end, as an initial study, we designed a smart couch that is equipped with accelerometer, vibration and force resistive sensors to monitor how much time people spend while sitting, lying or napping on the couch and to recognize the drifts from their daily routines. In order to distinguish these a...
Energy-Aware Data Delivery Framework for Safety-Oriented Mobile IoT
Al-Turjman, Fadi (2018-01-01)
The proliferation of wireless multimedia sensor networks has given rise to intelligent transportation systems as a mobile data-sharing model. This vision can be extended under the umbrella of the mobile Internet of Things to include versatile resources, such as smartphones, radio frequency identification tags, and sensors on roads that can be utilized in emergency situations. The facilitation of such a vision faces key challenges in terms of interoperability, resource management and energy consumption. In t...
Wireless sensor networks for healthcare: A survey
Alemdar, Hande (2010-10-28)
Becoming mature enough to be used for improving the quality of life, wireless sensor network technologies are considered as one of the key research areas in computer science and healthcare application industries. The pervasive healthcare systems provide rich contextual information and alerting mechanisms against odd conditions with continuous monitoring. This minimizes the need for caregivers and helps the chronically ill and elderly to survive an independent life, besides provides quality care for the babi...
A Survey on Multipath Routing Protocols for QoS Assurances in Real-Time Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks
Hasan, Mohammed Zaki; Al-Rizzo, Hussain; Al-Turjman, Fadi (2017-01-01)
The vision of wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs) is to provide real-time multimedia applications using wireless sensors deployed for long-term usage. Quality of service assurances for both best effort data and real-time multimedia applications introduced new challenges in prioritizing multipath routing protocols in WMSNs. Multipath routing approaches with multiple constraints have received considerable research interest. In this paper, a comprehensive survey of both best effort data and real-time m...
Finite-horizon online energy-efficient transmission scheduling schemes for communication links
Bacınoğlu, Baran Tan; Uysal Bıyıkoğlu, Elif; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
The proliferation of embedded systems, mobile devices, wireless sensor applications and increasing global demand for energy directed research attention toward self-sustainable and environmentally friendly systems. In the field of communications, this new trend pointed out the need for study of energy constrained communication and networking. Particularly, in the literature, energy efficient transmission schemes have been well studied for various cases. However, fundamental results have been obtained mostly ...
