Abstract

Recent advances in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and more specifically in wireless networks and mobile computing have driven new directions in the development of e-Health sector. New emerging concepts like mobile health (m-Health) and Personal Health Systems (PHS) are expected to revolutionize the way healthcare services are delivered. In the paper a description on the specifics of the PHS's building blocks is presented. An example multi-tiered architectural model for realization of PHS is included and a description of characteristics and functions of the tiers is suggested.
