Technological Approach

We present a modular and flexible system design that focuses on integration of technologies re-uses previous experience and products, while at the same time advances current information processing technologies. Starting from the bottom of the proposed architecture, we distinguish the follow aspects:

Indexing of data: CHRONIOUS defines levels of abstraction (metadata and warehousing) on top of the heterogeneous distributed data repositories in order to facilitate and speed up access to them. Moreover, data is indexed according to predefined domain specific ontology in order to cope up with the extended terminology
Wearable Multisensorial System (shirt or vest): An innovative component of the proposed platform is the innovative wearable sensors system, which is comprised by wireless sensors, it has ergonomic design, comfortable and easy to use and will provide qualitative monitoring of patients suffering from chronic diseases.
Intelligence: The system's intelligence lies on the processing of heterogeneous signals and parameters:
- CHRONIOUS Intelligence
- Advice capabilities
- Alerting and reminding capabilities
- Severity estimation
- Multi-modality
- Connectivity
- Personalisation
- Interoperability
