HealthDash: Monitoramento remoto de pacientes utilizando programação baseada em fluxo de dados

In this paper, we propose HealthDash, a framework for developing IoT solutions for health care. HealthDash employs the data-flow-oriented pro- gramming paradigm, from the cloud layer to the network edge (fog layer), unifying development technologies across layers, that is, from edge devices to decision making. We conducted an experiment to evaluate the proposal with the simulation of the transmission of data collected from home-monitored pati- ents with chronic diseases. In the simulation, we observed the performance of the two implemented solutions to both continuous and event-based scenarios of data transmission. The results showed that HealthDash solution provides flexi- ble infrastructure, consuming less bandwidth and spending little response time.
