Resumo
Solutions in healthcare are focused on diagnostics, productivity and personal care in this
way, theWireless Sensor Networks WSN allow health professionals to monitor people
more efficiently. To make integration between WSN and the applications and interfaces
that health professionals use more effective its needed a software component that facilitates
and mitigates the problems of developing these applications, this component is called
middleware. From the perspective of software development, this middleware mainly offers
the advantage of focusing the work on the requirements of the software, making the
programmer not to worry about the characteristics of hardware and interconnection of
devices in the WSN. In the way to facilitate the use of applications in healthcare, this
middleware offers some features that are introduced to simplify and ensure the transmission
of information in addition to providing reliable use of them. In this work we propose
a middleware named Kratos that allows portability and concurrent execution of applications
by standardized interfaces to mobile devices, allowing their use in sensor networks
applied to health in a transparent way. To evaluate the use of Kratos and its functionality
was proposed an application scenario for monitoring electrocardiographic signals (ECG),
which will conduct the monitoring and sending alerts to mobile devices from a medical
staff. The implementation of the ECG sensor and all the modeling of middleware is in
compliance with the IEEE 1451 family of standards.
