Healthcare Expert System Based on the Group Cooperation Model

Expert systems for healthcare services are widely studied where accuracy of diagnosis and efficiency of the system for various services are examined. Also, recent researches include decision support services, expert medical services and autonomous management, which are based on multi-agent systems. The cooperation of the agents is crucial in analyzing, and managing the data of patient to detect abnormal patterns in order to provide an advance treatment. This research shows that the healthcare expert system (HES) is implemented on the group cooperation model. Communications through the components are designed based on multi-agent. The proposed agent managers effectively coordinate the processing of client requests. Replica managers provide quality of service for clients by replicating objects. An adaptive scheme using round robin and fuzzy least load algorithms is managed by load balancing service.
