Object-oriented modeling of cloud healthcare system through connected environment

Abstract

Advancement of information and communication technology (ICT) has facilitated electronic communication among its users having dispersed geographical location. This concept of electronic communication may be implemented in multivariate service sectors to cater services to end user, i.e., Citizen. India being a developing nation have to afford huge establishments and manpower to deliver services regularly to its Citizen. Due to this situation, enormous amount of recurring expenditure is mounted over the financial structure of nation. Moreover, the services delivered through conventional mode takes sufficient time to reach the intended user, particularly, in case of distantly located user. To solve these issues, electronic mode of message communication may be adopted to provide electronic services in timely and budget-friendly manner. The only concern of this approach is security of sensitive information which is transmitted through public communication channel, i.e., Internet. To resolve this issue, hybrid cryptographic security protocols should be used to ensure privacy, integrity, non-repudiation and authentication (PINA) during its implementation in real-world scenario. Furthermore, to provide an user friendly system, a Citizen-centric single window interface have been modeled. As the primary objective of this paper, authors will extend it further to deliver cloud healthcare facilities to Citizen through the proposed single window interface, i.e., multipurpose electronic card (MEC). To simulate the real-world implementation, in this paper, authors have performed object-oriented modeling (OOM) of proposed cloud healthcare system.
