Abstract:
Currently, Pervasive Computing has focused on the development of programmable and interactive environments, which are intended to help the user in daily activities. The health system of the future envisages the use of Pervasive Computing as a way of optimizing and automating clinical activities. Under such perspective, the present study has tried to adapt a middleware for pervasive environment management to support and manage the accomplishment of clinical tasks (pervasive applications that help physicians perform their activities), fulfilling some requirements of activities-oriented computing, and creating a tool that will help physicians in their daily tasks. So, ClinicSpace can be seen as a system context aware pervasive oriented clinical tasks.
