IoT development methodology for the Health care system
IOT
technology is one of the most revolutionized technology that has shaped the
design of modern software-based services in the more adoptable way with advance
features. To enable the IOT services , the IoT Platform plays a pivotal role that
is a group of technologies that provides the building block for development of
the IoT platform for the purposed product. Here in this report the IoT platform
development methodologies will be presented. The Evolution framework to be
followed for this design process is as follows-
-Defining
meta-features
The purposed platform will provide the support
to the health care system that enables the individuals to exploit the on-body
both portable and connected sensors for frequently monitoring the health
signals originated from the human body. These signals will be related to the
body temperature , pulse rate, blood pressure etc., and will be captured
through sensors deployed in human body and will be communicated to the heath
care analytics server. This is very critical service as it aims to provide life
support to the patients. It aims to exploit the sensor-based data for analysing
, profiling and managing the connected and smart heath care system( Imreh,
Robert & Raisinghani, Mahesh. 2021).
Step-2 Derivation of the feature set
In this phase complete lifecycle coverage with the
help of proposed IOT platform is set. In this step the various processes are
broken down in following steps-
Initialization- In this step the core objective of
the project , schedule , responsibilities and other necessary information for
development of the IOT platform is set as well documented. Along with this
majorly the feasibility of the proposed application is estimated.
Analysis – In this step the analysis of the
requirement for the proposed application is set . As mentioned that the purposed platform will provide the support to
the health care system that enables the individuals to exploit the on-body both
portable and connected sensors for frequently monitoring the health signals
originated from the human body. So, it is analysed for which apparatuses for
supporting the health care system the sensors are required to develop. Along
with this the features for security and interoperability is also considered.
Design – In this phase firstly the architecture and
technologies for proposed sensors are designed. The networking architecture for
the proposed IOT platform is designed . According to the research study
conducted the various technologies proposed for supporting the health care
system are as follows-
Along with this technology for supporting the front
end and backend design is also set. We are suggesting Arduino platform as it is
widely used and is easily available. Secondly it is compatible with modern
technologies. Along with this monitoring system with appropriate log files are
also required to develop. To support the services data centre is also required
to develop.
Implementation
Here in this phase the design and logic develop is
converted in the actual working application with the help of appropriate
programming language and platform.
Testing
In this phase the developed application is tested
both for the functionality features and working given as well for the given functionalities in
the application.
Deployment
In this phase the proposed application is deployed
at the actual working place . Here the proposed application will be deployed
with complete training and user manuals. Along with this the features are
synchronized according to the deployment site requirement.
Tasks or

To develop the IOT product for supporting the processes
that were conducted as also explained in above section too are to define the
context of the processes , life cycle of the product development, Roles of
different human entities and modelling for
data products and modelling languages( Fergus, Kristin. 2012).

2. Strength
/Advantages and weaknesses of the IOT methodology selected
Strengths –
The proposed methodology has defined all the phases
in the most acceptable form similar to the traditional software life cycles.
The proposed methodology is capable for developing the implementable
application. It has provided the features for security too. In the IOT health
care applications one of the most important requirement is the localization of
the patient or equipment. It is very important for localizing the equipment’s
and patients for collecting the signals through the sensors. Along with this each
sensor has its own features and complexity as here the signals of equipment’s
used for the purposed platform will
provide the support to the health care system that enables the individuals to
exploit the on-body both portable and connected sensors for frequently
monitoring the health signals originated from the human body. These signals
will be related to the body temperature , pulse rate, blood pressure etc., and
will be captured through sensors deployed in human body and will be
communicated to the heath care analytics server. This is very critical service
as it aims to provide life support to the patients (Kumar, Gaurav & Bhatia,
Pradeep. 2012). Therefore, to design this system a very systematic approach has
been utilized. To achieve the optimal result the problem formulation and
product development is performed. The algorithms are also specified according to the requirement of the health
care system. Each stage defined above in the methodology is self-explanatory
and helps in providing the support to the development of IOT platform for the
health care system. In the above section the purpose of each phase and
significance in the development life cycle. Here in this project mainly sensors are required
for collecting the data through various apparatuses attached to the patients
and storing the information in the backend server . This methodology is flexible and provides complete scope for
the testing and debugging the errors and faults in the convenient manner. Along
with this it is providing complete support for connecting with the IOT system
devices and support for IOT
Weakness –
· Though this methodology has provided a great support
for the development of IOT platform for the health care system but the
methodology is weak in respect to providing the security mechanism.
· Along with this architecture system for error and
exceptional handling is also not specified.
