Maintenance Notice

Due to necessary scheduled maintenance, the JMIR Publications website will be unavailable from Wednesday, July 01, 2020 at 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM EST. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause you.

Who will be affected?

Previously submitted to: JMIR mHealth and uHealth (no longer under consideration since Mar 15, 2018)

Date Submitted: Oct 20, 2017
Open Peer Review Period: Oct 22, 2017 - Mar 15, 2018
(closed for review but you can still tweet)

NOTE: This is an unreviewed Preprint

Warning: This is a unreviewed preprint (What is a preprint?). Readers are warned that the document has not been peer-reviewed by expert/patient reviewers or an academic editor, may contain misleading claims, and is likely to undergo changes before final publication, if accepted, or may have been rejected/withdrawn (a note "no longer under consideration" will appear above).

Peer review me: Readers with interest and expertise are encouraged to sign up as peer-reviewer, if the paper is within an open peer-review period (in this case, a "Peer Review Me" button to sign up as reviewer is displayed above). All preprints currently open for review are listed here. Outside of the formal open peer-review period we encourage you to tweet about the preprint.

Citation: Please cite this preprint only for review purposes or for grant applications and CVs (if you are the author).

Final version: If our system detects a final peer-reviewed "version of record" (VoR) published in any journal, a link to that VoR will appear below. Readers are then encourage to cite the VoR instead of this preprint.

Settings: If you are the author, you can login and change the preprint display settings, but the preprint URL/DOI is supposed to be stable and citable, so it should not be removed once posted.

Submit: To post your own preprint, simply submit to any JMIR journal, and choose the appropriate settings to expose your submitted version as preprint.

Warning: This is an author submission that is not peer-reviewed or edited. Preprints - unless they show as "accepted" - should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.

Ontology-based cloud computing approach implements on mobile healthcare and management

  • Shu-Hsien Liao

Background:

Healthcare involves the maintenance or improvement of health via diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease, illness, injury, or other physical and mental impairments. During the past decade, there has been a proliferation of research on health information technology (HIT), which shows that HIT is essential for improving the quality of mobile healthcare and management.

Objective:

The smart-healthcare industry is a growing market that uses new technologies for the mobile healthcare and management field. The provision of more precise service solutions will allow smart healthcare and management strategies to be deployed in the healthcare industry.

Methods:

Thus, this study gives theoretical and practical insights into an ontology-based cloud computing approach in the mobile healthcare and management context.

Results:

Depending on the characteristics of the variable content, these data formats are defined as category data variable and numerical data variable (Table 1). These health evaluation factors also have a threshold value for each factor in Table 2, which determines the health status.

Conclusions:

This increases the understanding of the creation of value using a cloud computing business model and opens new paths for the development of a business case for healthcare providers.
