A conceptual framework for IoT-based healthcare system using cloud computing

Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) envisions a future in which anything/anyone/anyservice can be linked by means of appropriate information and communication technologies which will bring technological revolution in the fields of domestics, smart homes, healthcare systems, goods monitoring and logistics. This paper presents the applications of IoT and addresses some essential parameters and characteristics of each of the applications of IoT. In this paper, we have deeply explored the role of IoT in healthcare delivery and its technological aspects that make it a reality and examine the opportunities. A cloud based conceptual framework has been proposed which will be beneficial to the healthcare industry implementing IoT healthcare solutions.
