Abstract

The technological advances in healthcare specifically in preventive healthcare can lead to longer life expectancy especially for the elders. To aid in preventing premature loss of lives as well as lengthening life span, this research aims to implement the use of mobile and sensor technology to improve the quality of life and lengthen life expectancy. In particular, we propose a context-aware service framework for decision-support applications in preventive healthcare. This research applies ontology to support context modeling and reasoning by applying the general application areas for ontologies to the domain of context in ubiquitous computing environments. This paper also demonstrates how context technologies and mobile web services can help enhance the quality of services in preventive healthcare to elders.
