CloudFit: A Cloud-Based Mobile Wellness Platform Supported by Wearable Computing

Health and wellness area is an emerging social concern. The emergence of Cloud Computing and the growth of new technologies as smartphones and all kinds of wearable devices have given rise to delocalized health and wellness management systems and applications. Most of these systems, which are used by users on their own, are designed to track the exercises, monitor the physiological variables or as dietary diary with the aim to change the diary habits of users to improve their health and wellness, that could also be enhanced by the participation of expert advisors in the supervision of these activities.
