Role Of Information

This paper recommends that there is an important role of Information Technology in the field of women empowerment such empowerment could easily be seen higher in the Urban and rural Tamil Nadu. There is high time for providing training for the women with the support of the administration for strengthening the National Computer literacy Mission. There must be the provision of allocation of budget and funding for testing conceptual framework at the grass root level to assess the effectiveness of empowering women through Information Technology. In India, women face enormous challenges with respect to health, education, and economic empowerment. For example, maternal mortality and malnutrition remain major problems, about third of women are unable to read and write, and economic opportunities are limited by pervasive discrimination and lack of access to market information. Mobile innovation is transforming lives for the better for women in a variety of ways across India. We recognize that the scaling of women-centered mobile programs and applications can only be achieved with improved financial, commercial, and marketing incentives and of course, cooperation. Thorough mobile application training we hope make a start – by financially supporting and recognizing innovative mobile and Web based applications and their potential in a public forum.

BACKGROUND Ethnic diversity in dermatology has previously been neglected within educational curricula. This has previously been demonstrated within many established dermatology textbooks. Many urban populations find their communities becoming increasingly diverse and medical education must match these changes. The increasing use and modernisation of mobile technology in health education may represent an avenue to provide increasingly diverse knowledge related to dermatology in dark skin populations. OBJECTIVE To review the representation of dark skin photography and diseases in dermatological educational resources provided via mobile application technology. METHODS Mobile applications related to ‘dermatology’ were reviewed within the Google Play Store. Only original mobile applications made for education of medical students or health professionals were analysed. Photographic depictions of dermatological conditions were categorised according to Fitzpatrick type 1-4, Fitzpatrick type 5-6, or uncertain. Additionally, mobile applications were reviewed for information regarding four conditions more common in people with darker skin: central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, melasma, acral lentiginous melanoma, and keloid scarring. RESULTS Of 200 mobile applications reviewed, 12 were included within the analysis. In total 3755 in-app photographs were categorised into Fitzpatrick type 1-4 (3398 photographs, 90.5%), Fitzpatrick type 5-6 (245 photographs, 6.5%), or uncertain (112 photographs, 3.0%). The degree of photographs showing Fitzpatrick 5-6 ranged from 0.7% to 17.6% between the different mobile applications. This was not significantly different from results previously gained from photographic depictions in dermatology textbooks. Furthermore, the number of mobile applications presenting overt educational information regarding the four conditions reviewed varied considerably; central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (1 application, 8.3%), melasma (5 applications, 41.7%), acral lentiginous melanoma (4 applications, 33.3%), and keloid scarring (6 applications, 50%). No mobile applications contained information for all four conditions. CONCLUSIONS There is limited depiction of dermatological conditions in darker skin tones within mobile applications aimed at educational students and professionals in dermatology.

Natural and convenient physiological health monitoring and the technology of health information sharing has important practical value in preventing the occurrence of disease and enhancing people’s health level, this paper combines physiological health monitoring technology and mobile application technology, studying the mobile application of collaborative physiological health monitoring and sharing technology. Heart rate monitoring as a breakthrough point of health monitoring, this paper studies non-contact heart rate monitoring technology based on visible light and constructs the physiological signs network for group users. Finally, combined with mobile terminals and social networking platforms, the paper achieves natural and convenient physiological health monitoring and community health information sharing for network relationship support.

                People nowdays have a high mobility that make some of obligation had been forgotten.the most important obligation for muslim is praying five times a day limited information about praying time sometime make the obligation had been neglected or even forgotten.usually when the condition is for far from mosque and/or in a trip.the information of qibla is needed for avoid this problem,especially in places or areas are far from mosque.               This application is a mobile application technology based Location Based Service (LBS) that is built on the Android platform, using Android Studio IDE and Google APIs in its development. In determining the time of prayers used two methods, by determining the time the degree of the sun and using a formula that is expressed with the time / clock, in determining the direction of the Qibla used two methods with the formula triangles ball and the position of the sun and the method of application also utilizes the Global Positioning System (GPS) which are applied with the help of Google Map.               This application is able to display Qibla direction and prayer schedules wherever the location of the nearest mosque user is located. Users can download the prayer schedule and location-based Qibla direction and displays the nearest mosque on user location is equipped with navigation features to reach the mosque by using the Google Map. Keywords: Android Applications , Mosque , Prayer Times , Qibla Direction , GPS , Google Map
