摘要

Internet-of-Things (IoT) is a model for interconnected devices with tracking, sensing, processing and analyzing capabilities. IoT became a very attractive research area due to the aforementioned features beside the business opportunities. In this paper, we design a telemedicine platform for diabetes control and management. This platform aims to help diabetic patients to record and monitor their diabetes and vital signs. Besides that, the platform gives a feedback and notifications to the patient to help control and mitigate diabetes complications. In addition, the patients physician have a monitoring and communication dashboard that allows him or her to monitor the patients and communicate with them if necessary.
