摘要
Advances in information and communications technology (ICT) are expected to help people lead healthier lives amidst the many stressors in today's fast-paced society. While smartphones and tablets continue to overtake desktops and laptops, the next computing revolution Human-Centric Computing is taking root. This shift in computing is enabled by the increasing ubiquity of sensors that are around us, on us, and even in us. Deploying intelligent, human-centric services using these connected sensors requires advancements in the underlying IT infrastructure itself. In this paper, we describe various novel services built atop a general-purpose mobile platform developed by Fujitsu Laboratories of America, Inc. for continuous mobile monitoring. Our platform was developed with next-generation healthcare services in mind but has broad applicability as an extensible platform for deploying real-time services that incorporate data from arbitrary sensors. We provide an overview of our platform, and highlight several services that act as new points of contact between a user and the IT infrastructure. In the domain of health and wellness, we show how continuous bio-monitoring enables us to measure stress and to provide stress management services. We describe how such services may be used in a typical day, contributing to a new and improved quality of life.
