- Abstract
Healthcare is a fundamental part of every individual’s life. The healthcare industry is developing very rapidly with the help of advanced technologies. Many researchers are trying to build cloud-based healthcare applications that can be accessed by healthcare professionals from their premises, as well as by patients from their mobile devices through communication interfaces. These systems promote reliable and remote interactions between patients and healthcare professionals. However, there are several limitations to these innovative cloud computing-based systems, namely network availability, latency, battery life and resource availability.We propose a hybrid mobile cloud computing (HMCC) architecture to address these challenges. Furthermore, we also evaluate the performance of heuristic and dynamic machine learning based task scheduling and load balancing algorithms on our proposed architecture. We compare them, to identify the strengths and weaknesses of each algorithm; and provide their comparative results, to show latency and energy consumption performance. Challenging issues for cloud-based healthcare systems are discussed in detail.
