Role-based Adaptation for Video Conferencing in Healthcare Applications

摘要

A large number of health-related applications are being developed using web infrastructure. Video is increasingly used in healthcare applications to enable communications between patients and care providers. We present a video conferencing system designed for healthcare applications. In face of network congestion, the system uses role-based adaptation to ensure seamless service. A new web technology, WebRTC, is used to enable seamless conferencing applications. We present the video conferencing application and demonstrate the usefulness of role based adaptation.
