Multi-agent-based U-healthcare System for Managing Hypertension

Recently emerging U-healthcare system performs the prevention and control of various diseases and health management in consideration of users' mobility not limited to specific space. The present study proposed a multi-agent-based U-healthcare system to provide health management and medical service to hypertension. The multi-agent system is composed of diagnosis agent that provides prescription information based on input context information and history information, user agent that manages patient information, and management agent that manages communication and the system.
