The objective of this project was the development of an information management system for healthcare purpose using cloud computing and IoT technology. The system was designed to receive data coming from medical instruments, as well as documents issued by healthcare professionals and doctor responsible for the care of a patient. For medical consultation, patients must use an identification card that allows access to the corresponding medical history stored in the cloud. This access can be done through an RFID reader, making it possible to consult patient information on a human-machine interface, where new information can also be registered. For the development of the interface, an application for the Android operating system was created, where information can be accessed, and documents can be stored. Storage was implemented on Google's Firebase® platform. Akyiama's RFID reader integrated in a Raspberry Pi was used to access the information. Exemplifying the connection with biomedical instruments, a sen-11574 heart beats sensor was connected to a Raspberry Pi, whose measurements were converted to the I2C format with an ADS-1115 module. Results obtained are very promising to be applied in the automation of hospitals, first aid and private assistance in medical offices. the main benefit for patients is the fact that they can keep their medical history in the cloud, which can prevent loss of patient information in usual cases such as changing doctors, offices, or hospitals, which is commonly the case. Therefore, the system allows the preservation of the patient's historical record. The medical care system would make it more effective as it facilitates the work of medical professionals and assists in the patient's day-to-day life with updated health information

Chapter 2 brings new information to Florida’s sparse historical record of the Sheppard-Towner Maternity and Infancy Protection Act, initiated from 1922 to 1929. To provide expert administration of the program, public health nurse Laurie Jean Reid arrived, armed with a reformer’s vision augmented by a large dose of cultural chauvinism. Reid soon declared bringing federal initiatives into the state would be an uphill climb when the intertwining problems of race and poverty mired the state in its backwardness. The task of establishing authority over the predominantly black midwives and bringing health improvements to mothers rested with Reid’s team of public health nurses. They found innovative ways to bridge the communities they served with policies that addressed the threats of infection and the high infant and maternal mortality levels. Meeting these cultural and environmental challenges became not only a test of Reid’s judgment, but also a trial of how well the nurses operating under the Sheppard-Towner Act effectively imposed rules and regulations to a mostly rural population without creating racial and class tension.

Purpose The purpose of this technical paper is to evaluate the emerging standard “Allotrope Data Format (ADF)” in the context of digital preservation at a major US academic library hosted at Brigham Young University. In combination with the new information management system ZONTAL Space (ZS), archiving with the ADF is compared with currently used systems CONTENTdm and ROSETTA. Design/methodology/approach The approach is a workflow-based comparison in terms of usability, functionality and reliability of the systems. Current workflows are replaced by optimized target processes, which limit the number of involved parties and process steps. The connectors or manual solutions between the current workflow steps are replaced with automatic functions inside of ZS. Reporting functionalities inside of ZS are used to track system and file lifecycle to ensure stability and data preservation. Findings The authors find that the target processes leveraging ZS drastically reduce complexity compared to current workflows. Archiving with the ADF is found to decrease integration complexity and provide a more robust data migration path for the future. The possibility to enrich data automatically with metadata and to store this information alongside the content in the same information package increases reusability of the data. Research limitations/implications The practical implications of this work suggest the arrival of a new information management system that can potentially revolutionize the archiving landscape within libraries. Beyond the scope of the initial proof of concept, the potential for the system can be seen to replace existing data management tools and provide access to new data analytics applications, like smart recommender systems. Originality/value The value of this study is a systematic introduction of ZS and the ADF, two emerging solutions from the Pharmaceutical Industry, to the broader audience of digital preservation experts within US libraries. The authors consider the exchange of best practices and solutions between industries to be of high value to the communities.

In this paper, we designed a device to measure a heartbeat using fingertip and we also designed to measure the body temperature. Notwithstanding, the issues that happen in wellbeing administrations is that clinical staff need quite a while to look at patients, patient information recovery is still traditional, and gear utilized as yet utilizing the link media. To tackle the issue, this proposes a pulse observing framework and internal heat level utilizing Raspberry Pi. This examination intends to calm the weight of clinical work force in observing the patient, shorten the time in taking patient data and diminish the occasion of misdiagnosis.


The main objective is to create a security system for wallet based on RFID technology and also keep an account of how much money is coming inside and going out of the wallet which is done using tcs3200 colour sensor by which we can have an account of the amount of money spent and update the same on the mobile app. So, this project basically alerts the person if the wallet is missing from his/her pocket and also shares the location of the same and also gives the information of how much he/she has spent. The major components used in this paper include Raspberry PI, RFID Reader, RFID Tag, GPS Module, and TCS3200 Colour Sensor. Whenever the RFID card is placed near to the reader, the RFID reader obtains the UID (unique key) information about the card. The location of the wallet is obtained using the GPS Module. This detail is notified to user when the wallet is not connected. The status obtained by the RFID reader and the GPS module is collected by Raspberry PI. Using the PI’s WIFI, the details are posted onto the cloud. All the details posted onto the cloud are accessed via the APP and also through a website portal in case of any emergency

This paper describes the development of a long range monitoring system that integrates Cottonwood: UHF Long Distance RFID reader module with Raspberry Pi 3. When a UHF RFID tag is within the UHF RFID reader antenna’s range, the unique ID of the tag will be transferred to the Raspberry Pi 3 to be processed. Then, the data will be sent over to the database wirelessly to be managed, stored, and displayed. The paper also describes the measurement done to determine the most suitable thickness of PDMS material so that it could be incorporated as a wearable transponder. After the result is calculated and tabulated, it can be concluded that the most suitable thickness of PDMS material for the transponder is 8 mm.
