Résumé:
The current paradigm of health care can no longer endure the growing number of chronically ill. Since these diseases have determinant a behavioral factor, a continuous monitoring of the health of users is necessary. Continuous monitoring is not feasible with the current model of worldwide care. With regard to this, one of the most promising approaches is the self-management. In this paradigm, the patient becomes more responsible for their treatment and become able to lead a more independent life, relieving the health system. It is observed therefore the possibility of using devices to monitor the user at any place and time in the context of health. This idea defines an area of knowledge called Pervasive Healthcare. Several approaches have been developed in this direction. Several of the mare studied in this work and it is observed that a major problem is the lack of interoperability between components that define these applications. Solutions are developed without following ways to maximize the reuse of modules for various applications. This implies a higher cost in development and brings a great need for development of software frameworks that provide mechanisms for this. This paper presents a framework for the development of pervasive applications to support the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases based on software components.
It aims to support self-management using concepts of Pervasive Healthcare providing a
tool that makes the development of application and software components that represent
features normally found in such systems easier. Moreover, it takes account of the dynamic
evolution support for the application, and the design of a cross-platform language
framework that can be run on different types of mobile devices. Finally, to guide the developer in using the framework for the development of applications and components, the process of development through a case study is described.
