International Workshop on Internet of Elderly People

IoEP 2019


Computer Networks & Wireless Communication Computing Systems



In the recent decades, the raising of the medium life expectancy duration has had the pernicious efect of multiplying the multi-morbidity prevalence in the population. The co-ocurrence of different health conditions that have to be handled conciously of each other is one of the major fields in translational research involving both health professionals and technologists. One main contribution that can be done in the immediate are the adequate usage of ICT recent breakthroughs, namely in the Machine Learning and Edge Computing convergence. The IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) and the associated WoMT (Web of Medical Things) where the information fusion can be managed by semantic frameworks are ecloding and disseminating everywhere and present a wonderful opportunity to tackle the chalenges presented to everyday life of the elderly. We are inviting contributions from translational researchers to present their innovative contributions around the convergence of technological and care models that contribute to the Integrated Care Process.
