Abstract

In this paper, to provide interactive tele-medical consultation, a next-generation collaboration environment is designed by bridging on-line and off-line medical services together in a place called as CMC (cyber medical center). CMC plays the base infrastructure by providing on/off-line solutions for medical information sharing. Based on the CMC model, we introduce example service scenarios that improve the effectiveness of interactive tele-medicine consultations. Then, we switch to the discussion on how to realize CMC service scenarios by employing SMeet (smart meeting space) collaboration environment. Especially, proof-of-concept verifications are successfully made to justify the potential of SMeet prototype in realizing the vision for CMC.
