Intelligent Network Applications for Medical Systems

Abstract

The role of intelligent communication systems in medical field is immediate and globally pervasive. Most of the modern hospitals and medical networks depend on the deployment of Intelligent Networks (IN) techniques for routing the calls and recipients to correct locations. Seeking the correct information from the appropriate medical knowledgebase is generally content-based. A decade earlier, the choice of knowledge base was entirely within discretion of the user. However, with the increasing dependability of network intelligence, the intelligent elements and agents embedded in the network can route the calls, services and agents to quickly generate the supporting data and procedures to attend to any emergency, medical or security issues. We extend these concepts to the use in hospitals, medical centers, and local communities. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2010.
