Urban dwellers are soul of smart cities, and all final aims of city applications are people-centric. mHealth is a new generation method for personal healthcare, specially smart phone is widely used to interact with surroundings by the disabled and elderly people in smart cities. Existing massive of sensors, actuators, and smart objects are separated and controlled in different owners and community. Mobile devices of people-centric sensing (PCS) can receive data in opportunistic sensing according to mobile geo-location, dynamic social relationship, and interests of people, etc. In this work, we present a real-time health-driven model for people-centric healthcare context, and present a social-aware architecture to support smart objects mapping to online social networks, then present discovering and interacting with shared smart objects in a virtual community. Finally, we present a prototype system to validate the people-centric mHealth service model. © 2014, Springer International Publishing Switzerland. |
