1. INTRODUCTION
The internet and the web service, which is related to the
concept, has evolved in recent times, which directly enhance
the sector of the working which is involved into the normal
life of the people. It can be stated here that the technology is
playing very vital role in different sector of the life, which can
be divided into different working groups. The concept of the
internet of things are directly based on the aspect of the
essential solutions which are related to the IoT definition as a
device which is network that directly connects each of the
other devices and share the data which are very much vital
though the concept of secure service level (SSL) Perera, Liu
and Jayawardena (2015). The concept, which is applicable to
the aspect of the SSL, connects the central command and the
control server in the concept of the cloud. The main sector
which is evolved due to the concept of the internet of things in
the sector of the health can be directly related to the aspect of
the improving of the access to care, increase in the quality
which is related to the health care. Most importantly the sector
of the reduction of the cost, which is related to the care of the
patient. As the technology which is related ot the analyzing,
collecting and transmitting data in the concept of the IoT
increase or mature as time goes, it can be expected that the
sector can be seen to be more evolving in the near future. It
can be stated here that there are no shortage of prediction,
which is related to how the internet of things is going to be
great reduction in the price, which is related to treatment, and
it would be allowing increasing the quality of the service,
which is being provided. Wireless sensor based machine are
being placed in recent times which directly records the details
of the patient which was not available before this technology
invent and on the other hand delivering of the care to the
patient for whom it would have not been possible before. In
these ways it can be stated that the concept of the
2. BACKGROUND/LITERATURE REVIEW
Understanding Internet of things
As the concept of the internet of things is directly
connected to the aspect of the connecting of the
devices it was stated by Perera, Liu and
Jayawardena (2015) that “Today computers—and
therefore, the
Internet—are almost wholly dependent on human
beings for information. The problem is, people have
limited, time, attention and accuracy—all of which means
they are not very good at capturing data about things in the
real world”. The main solution in the aspect, which was
always believed to be taken care of, is that the concept, which
is applicable to the aspect of the empowering of the devices to
directly, gather information without any human intervention.
The concept, which is related to the aspect of the devices
connecting with each other and exchanging of the data
without any human intervention, is advantageous in the
following ways:
 The advancement in the sector of the connectivity of the
technology and sensor it can be stated that the different
devices can directly analyse, collect and store data, which
was not possible before. The main advantage which can
be achieved from the concept is that is directly collects
the data of the patient over time which would be very
much beneficial in the aspect of the enabling the cure of
the patient. The concept also allows prompt
understanding and treatment of the patient and taking into
consideration different aspects, which are related to the
patient.
 The aspect, which is related to the gathering of the
personal data of the patient, can directly remove the
aspect, which is related to the human involvement in the
process. The process can be very much beneficial in a
way that directly reduces the error, which is related to the
work in the process. On the other hand, since the data is
stored in the concept of the machine it can be easily be
accessed and retrieved when need Perera, Liu and
Jayawardena (2015).
2.2 IOT ACTION IN HEALTH CARE
It can be stated here that the concept of the IoT is playing
a very vital role in the sphere of the health care. The spectrum,
which can be related to the concept, can be applied to
managing of the chronic disease at one end and on
the other end preventing disease. Some of the
sectors in which the concept of IoT are being
played out are stated below:
 Remote monitoring: they can be considered as people
whose mental health different due to the lack of any
efficient monitoring device related to the aspect. In the
recent times it can be stated be stated as possible due to
the implementation of a powerful wireless solution which
is connected to the IoT. This concept is very much
beneficial in a way, which directly implements a secure
method, which can be used for the aspect of the
monitoring of the health record of the patient. The
concept can be used in a variety of scenario which
collects data and applied complex algorithm to the
concept as finally gives a result to the solution. The
concept can be easily be used by different heath

professional so that they can give appropriate
recommendation to the patient.
 Clinical care: the patient which are hospitalized and
whose health condition require constant monitoring can
be done using the concept of the internet of things. These
type of solution directly incorporate different types of
strategy into the concept which makes the treatment of
the patient more comprehensive. The main working of the
concept can be directly be related to the aspect of the
collecting useful physiological information and uses the
different gateway and the cloud to directly analyse the
concept and apply the treatment, which is best to the
patient directly in a real time manner.
 Scalable monitoring: It can be stated here that on order to
get the overall condition of the patient who is in hospital
the need of the continually monitoring is very much
needed. It can be stated that a patient condition can
detoriate within a second. In this context it can be stated
that the concept of the internet of things is playing very
vital role in the sector of proving the details of the patient
relating to the heart beat, blood pressure, position of the
body and many other details which can be termed very
much important for the patient as stated by Perera, Liu
and Jayawardena (2015).
2.1FUTURE OVERLOOK
It can be stated that the concept, which is applied to
the concept of the internet of things, can be changing the
society in the recent future. It directly gives the provision of
the all the aspects, which are related to the health care and can
directly take into consideration the overall data, which is
related to the patient. The concept can be applicable at any
instance of time when it is required and at any time related to
the requirement. The result, which are obtained from the
technology, can also be considered to be very much correct
and it directly involves the security of the data as stated by
Wortmann & Flüchter (2015). This directly implies that the
concept, which is applicable to the issue of the digital,
physical and the virtual world, would be ending. The concept
of wireless technology can be easily implemented within the
concept of the internet of things and it can be stated here that
the record of the patient are directly included into the aspect.
Some of the people need a real time monitoring system, which
would be helping them to keep fit, in this concept it can be
stated that the internet of things is playing a very vital role,
which gives the provision of the monitoring of the health of a
patient in real time. These services directly provide embedded
system of health care, which is related to the edge of the
network concept which directly encapsulate the different
functionality and provide a unified access which is related to
the access of the functionality of the system. These
components of technology directly consume and operate on
the different data and analyse a result, which can be used by
different doctors to prescribe an exact medicine or treatment
for the patient.
2.3 CONNECTIVITY STANDARD
In the concept of any technology it can be stated that the
concept of connectivity play a very vital role. It can be stated
here that the concept of the communication is also complex
due to the factor that different devices have to communicate
with each other in order to produce an effective
communication process. These aspect can be directly included
into the concept of the internet of things as in the process of
the internet of things it can be stated that different devices
have to communicate with each other to directly fulfil the
sector of the communication and the process which related to
the working with the concept. In recent times it can be stated
that research is being provided on the aspect of the creation of
the different communication medium which is related to the
working within the peripheral of the organisation which
majorly focus on the collection of the data. The organisation,
which is named as the Continua heath alliance, which is the
interoperability personal heath solution. The organisation
directly stated that the concept in the near future would be
playing vital role of the data of the patient is kept secured and
the connectivity of the different devices are very much
appropriate which would be enforcing a means of secured
standard as stated by Wortmann and Flüchter (2015). The
organisation in recent times has directly fasciculate a range of
specifications which I related to the concept of
interoperability. In the future, the organisation who would be
directly, involved into the aspect of the Continua certified
devices could directly have the assurance, which is related to
the connectivity aspect between different IoT driven
applications. The continual standard of devices can be
considered one of the largest standards, which are related to
the environment, which connects information technology
standard establishment, by the International organisation for
Standardization (ISO) and engineering standard which is a set
by the institute of electrical and electronics engineers (IEEE).
4. ADVANTAGE
Some of the advantage which is related to the concept of the
internet of things in the sector of health care are stated below:
 Data: The concept of automatic saving of the information,
which is related to the health record, can be one of the
biggest advantage, which is related to the concept. It can
be stated here that different sensors directly work in
coordination, which would be enabling the storage of the
data in a proper manner, which would be helping in the
process of the medical treatment. In most of the time, the
data of the patient in real time can be used to monitor
crucial patents activity in a real time, which would be
directly helping to secure the patient and providing
appropriate treatment to the patient. The doctor in these
cases can also make use of the data in order to judge the
condition of the patient and take necessary steps, which

would be involving the different sectors of heath
treatment.
 Time saving: the concept of the internet of things when
related to the concept of the heath care can be very much
time saving. It can be stated here that since the data of the
patient is saved in real time it can be very much beneficial
in a way, which directly resolves different issue, which
may be applicable to the aspect of the time involved in
getting the actual data of the patient. The real time data
processing can be one of the most advantage sector due to
the aspect the patient can get treatment in a quick time
period which would be very much beneficial for them in
the prospective of getting the treatment.
 Money: It can be stated that relating to money that the
concept of the internet of thing is very much cost
effective. On the other hand it can be stated that the
money is most invested in the sector of the initial set up
of the process and after the installation there is no money
involved apart from the aspect of the maintenance of the
devices.
 Tracing: The tracing of the devices can be also be done
every efficiently due to the factor that the devices are
connected with each other in a means of creating a
connectivity between them which is very much beneficial
for the proper working with the devices as stated by
Perera, Liu & Jayawardena (2015).
5. DISADVANTAGE
 Security: The security of the data can be considered one
of the most disadvantage sector which is related to the
concept of the internet of things. It can be stated here that
since the data of the user or the patient is very much
crucial the safety of the data should also be one of the
priority which should be involved into the concept. All
the data must be encrypted in form by which no third
party or nay types of intruders can indulge into the
different types of activity into the concept of the data.
 Complexity: The complexity which is seen within the
concept of the internet of things has made the researchers
to think about the concept and whether to make the
implementation or not. It can be stated here that the since
the communication of the different sensors mainly
establish a sector which if one of the devices in the sector
gets damaged or malfunction it is very much difficult to
identify the device and help to repair the overall system
which is involved into the concept of the working.
 Safety: There are a big chance that other person or
hackers are accessing the data of the patient. It can
sometimes lead to a big problem due to the factor that the
patient personal data would be at a risk and different
hackers to indulge into different types of illegal activity
can use the data.
6. FINDING
The finding, which is related to the internet of things, can be
considered to be one of the technology which is yet to be in
the stage of total exploitation. The main function which is
related to the concept of the internet of things in the field of
the health care can be directly be related to the aspect of the
things, semantic prospective and digital prospective.
 Things oriented vision: The main concept, which can be
applied to the concept if the things oriented vision is that
most of things, which we see in recent times, can have the
IoT sensors, attached to them. This majorly help in the
aspect of providing a means of communication between
the devices and which would be helpful in the aspect of
the storing of the data and sharing the same data between
the devices in a real time manner stated by Wortmann &
Flüchter (2015). The aspect of the embedded devices for
example RFID, NFC and other technology, which are
wireless technology, can directly accomplish the concept.
The vision directly provides a mean of integration, which
is applied to the different technology and the devices,
which are attached to the concept, which can directly
communicate with each other to form a basis of
communication between the devices.
 Internet oriented vision: The prospective, which is
applied to the concept, is that all the devices, which have
internet of things sensor attached to it, can directly be
connected to the concept of the internet. The objects,
which are connected by this mean, can be considered to
be smart objectives which are cable to communicate with
each other in a free manner. The concept can be directly
be achieved by means of providing a unique IP address to
each of the devices so that the device which si
communicating can be very easily be detected. The
devices in this aspect can directly be monitored for their
proper working so that if any of the device are seen to be
faulty can easily be identified and the devices can be
removed or make it proper functional.
 Semantic oriented vision: it can be stated here that all the
devices, which are connected in this manner, need to
communicate data. The interpretation of the data should
be in a form which directly making the meaning of the
concept understandable. It can be stated here that of the
data which is communicate in not meaningful it can be
very much a problem, which directly lead to
communication issue. These concept can be achieved by
the means of semantic analysis. The technique directly
interprets the raw data from the meaningful data and
directly provides interpretation of the data. The vision

directly provides the aspect of the semantic integration
through the basic use of the middleware of the semantic.
The sensors in the concept of the internet of things can be
very much beneficial in a way, which directly provides a
transformation to the world of data as stated by
Wortmann and Flüchter (2015). The sectors which can be
taken into consideration in the aspect is the oxygen
saturation, heart rate, blood glucose and blood pressure to
the digital world and the actuator transforms the digital
data into the concept of the physical action. The internet
of things devices have sensors, which are useful in the
aspect of the receding of the signal, which is related to the
aspect of the analysis of the data. On the other hand, it
can be considered actuators, which directly help in the
aspect of the controlling of the environment based upon
the concept of the internet and the cloud storage option,
which can be used for the aspect of the storing of the data.
The data which is stored in the concept of the cloud
computing can be very much secured to the
implementation of the different security features which
directly exist in the concept of the cloud computing.
7. PERSONALIZED MEDICINE
It can be stated here that the aspect which is related to the
health care delivery can be considered to be very much
population based. Patient in recent times can be directly
be separated into groups which would be directly
beneficial in the aspect of the similar symptoms which are
seen the different diseases. This group are then treated
with appropriate drugs and medicine so that they receive
the best treatment. Coordinators who are relating to the
sector of the health care and the electronic medical record
can be estimated to the be driving the aspect of the
personalized approach to the medicine which is based on
the aspect of the DNA analysis of the patient. It would be
also enabling the aspect, which is related to the
customization of the drugs, and the effective drug
combination, which is based on the aspect of the makeup
of the data of the patient. It can be stated here that in the
near future the standard of the health care would be
reaching a much higher level which would be directly
accompanying different standard were the patient would
be receding treatment in a much greater standard.
8. CONCLUSION
The report can be concluded on a note that the process of
the technology, which is related to the aspect of the
internet of things, is playing a very vital role in the sphere
of technology. In the recent times, it can be stated that the
concept would be playing a more vital role when the
different issue, which are related to the aspect of the
communication, are resolved. In most of the times, it is
seen majorly that since the aspect of the internet of things
can be applicable to different form of objects by means of
linking of sensors to the devices it has majorly help in the
concept of providing many opportunity to the user. All
the objects in the concept would be directly working
seamlessly in the concept if the machine to machine
interfaces. This level of interconnection can be
considered very much vital in the sphere of the
technology, which is related to the health care sector.
These all factors with the help if the genomic input would
be making the input of the aspect very much friendly,
makes the appraised decision of the standard, and directly
give high quality data into the process. The process of
internet of things health care can be considered to be very
much economical due to the fact of the different sectors
which are related to the aspect of the technology. Some of
the proposal devices, which can be related to the aspect of
the healthcare devices for the developing world, can be
the remote consulting, hand held diagnostic. Other
devices, which would be very much beneficial in the
aspect of the detection of epidemic diseases such as the
cholera and the malaria and other vital disease, which can
hamper the life of the common people.
