Project Description
The project that is being carried out by the company is the development of an IoT-based
healthcare application for one of its medium-scale healthcare organization. The project will
be developed using Internet of Things (IoT) as the primary technology. IoT is one of the
emerging technologies that refer to the inter-connection of a varied set of components to
achieve a common goal (Lingam, 2017). The components that will be involved and integrated
in the application will be healthcare equipment, such as heart rate monitor, glucometer, etc.,
computer systems, database, database server, web server, Smartphones, network peripherals,
sensors, data analytics tools, and Big Data tools (Harsh, 2017).
The software development project will include the development of the IoT-based healthcare
application along with a front-end for the application which will act as the interface for the
users. The web interface will be accessible from the mobile as well as desktop platforms. The
primary users for the application will be the patients, medical professionals, nursing staff, and
healthcare organization’s management. The other users may include the administrative staff,
healthcare authorities, and the family members of the patient. The project will be developed
as per the business requirements & specifications handed over by the client. Some of the
