CPS have become of the the major research fields in the recent times. Its sensing, computing and actuating nature makes an excellent system for medical applications. What are the various opportunities, applications and challenges of this field of research?
I think NIH would fund for research in these lines in United states.~KS
Dear Mohd,
CPS provides core features that are common to various domain-related applications and includes to a higher degree similar CPS challenges such as:
- Human in the loop
- Feedback systems
- tight integration
- networking
- Adpative and predictive
- resilience
- Non-functional requirements such as reliability
- safety, security,
- Real-time awareness
- interoperability
- data integrity
. The additional challenges and issues for health care look like the following:
- the process of information circulation, include the actors or stakeholders (e.g. patients, doctors, nurses),
- the state of information,
- the state of the workflows,
- data integrity
- the tracking of the information
defining the right models would help to deal with the challenges including:
- a model for the definition and consolidation of information records, including importing existing data from various systems
- a model for circulation of the information
- a model of the data storage of the information
- a model for real-time query of the information
this was a quick brainstorm, although i'm not an expert in health care but worked on some related projects. i hope the fellow researchers would provide more issues related to health care domain.
i hope it helps.
take care
