Primary tabs

The 2nd International Workshop on Internet of Things for Healthcare (IoT-Health 2019) will be 
held in conjunction with IEEE International Conference on E-health Networking, Application & 
Services (IEEE Healthcom 2019). The workshop aims to bring researchers together from academia 
and industry to share the state-of-the art research and development in the areas of Internet 
of Things (IoT) for Healthcare. The main objective of this workshop is to invite papers that 
illustrate new ideas, innovative research results, or systematic reviews in the above 
mentioned area. All IoT-Health 2019 accepted papers will be published by IEEE in IEEEXplore.

 Workshop Scope: 

Internet of Things (IoT) is a rapidly growing research area focused on many academic and 
industrial disciplines, especially in the healthcare domain. Due to the increased 
proliferation of body sensors, wearable devices and smartphones, the IoT enabled technologies
are evolving the traditional healthcare to more sophisticated and personalized healthcare
system. The use of IoT enabled technologies in healthcare will allow efficient and safe 
healthcare, reduced cost, improved patient-care, and sustainability. The IoT technologies are 
now providing numerous opportunities to develop Smart and efficient healthcare solutions with
more focus on intelligence and predictability for daily life activities, assisted living,
and patient-care facilities. In the smart healthcare systems, numerous IoT devices and 
sensors are being used to monitor a patient’s healthcare status and transfer this data 
directly to remote data centers.
