Demographic change as a cataylst for knowledge society
This document discusses how demographic change can catalyze the knowledge society. It argues that both young and old populations contribute valuable knowledge, with the young providing explorative innovation and the old providing experience and conceptual innovation. An aging workforce is needed as more knowledge is applied and companies collaborate more. However, older workers feel their knowledge is not being utilized. The document advocates for policies that promote lifelong learning and allow older workers to share their knowledge and experience.

Body Area Networks.ppt
This document discusses body area networks (BANs), which are a subgroup of personal area networks (PANs) that operate within 10 meters of an individual. BANs are especially useful in healthcare as they allow compact, mobile monitoring of vital signs and medical data collection via sensors. A BAN consists of sensors, actuators, and a mobile base unit that communicates both within the BAN and externally using wireless technologies like GPRS and UMTS. One example is the MobiHealth project, which demonstrated remote patient monitoring using BANs. Further research is still needed on BAN communication protocols, security, reliability and supporting emerging in-body networks.
Body Area Networks for wearable applications
A Body Area Network (BAN) is a network of wearable computing devices that are typically integrated into clothing or accessories and worn on or close to the body. These devices can include sensors, monitors, and communication modules. BANs are designed to monitor physiological parameters, movement, and other vital signs of the wearer, and can transmit this data wirelessly to a nearby receiver or a central processing unit for analysis.
BANs have various applications in healthcare, sports and fitness monitoring, military applications, and even entertainment. In healthcare, for example, they can be used for continuous monitoring of patients' vital signs or for early detection of medical emergencies. In sports and fitness, BANs can help athletes track their performance and monitor their health during training sessions.
One of the key advantages of BANs is their ability to provide real-time monitoring and feedback, allowing for timely interventions when necessary. However, there are also challenges such as ensuring data security and privacy, managing power consumption in wearable devices, and interoperability between different devices and systems. As technology advances, BANs are expected to become more sophisticated and pervasive in various aspects of our lives.

Mark Ledwidge - Heartbeat Trust
This document discusses remote patient monitoring for heart failure patients using the HeartPhone system. It outlines challenges in remote monitoring including low sensitivity of weight-based monitoring alone and the need for an integrated healthcare ecosystem. The HeartPhone system aims to improve on manual monitoring by analyzing daily weight trends combined with other patient-reported data inputs. This enhanced algorithm could improve sensitivity for detecting worsening heart failure and reduce the workload of clinicians. Overall, remote monitoring provides an opportunity to better manage the growing chronic disease population in a sustainable way through an integrated patient-centered care model.
