Resumo

Body Sensor Networks (BSN) are a technology used to supply individual’s vital signs to ubiquitous and pervasive systems. This systems applied to the healthcare area uses BSN to monitor patient’s vital signs remotely, that is without them being in a hospital environment. This technology applied as a base to this application assists healthcare professional to remotely monitor patients, which contribute to solve healthcare services problems. One of those problems is the crowded treatments centers. The usage of BSN, by conditioning remote monitoring, can colaborate to reduce the patients’ needs to consistently go to hospitals, thus contributing to reduce the number of patients in those environments. Given this tecnology potential comes the need to develop good quality applications. However, considering an analysis of BSN projects applied to the healthcare field, the usage of inadequated hardware platforms are noticed. Therefore aiming to make the development of this type of applications easier, it is proposed a simulator specific for BSN applied to the healthcare field. Hence, this work’s goal is to show this application simulator through the usage of a simulated hardware platform which takes intoconsiderationhealthcare demands to provide a test environment.
