Analysis of the potential of cross-platform mobile applications as data management tools in medical purposes

摘要

The potential of the mobile devices raised a lot in the past few years. Today the mobile devices are maybe the most important target for developers around the world. The companies around the world are trying to increase their efficiency by implementing mobile based tools and applications for better and faster working. Current researches and surveys are showing that people are more likely to use mobile devices for everyday tasks\udthen PC’s or laptops. This global phenomenon is also reflecting the medical world.\udCurrently, many medical research centers and hospitals in the world are investigating the potential of the mobile based technology and trying to implement the best working model that fits their needs. Also, some medical robotic devices that were attractive only two or three years ago, today are being replaced by mobile phones and smart watches just because they are easier for using, more convenient and also they are offering lots of\udpossibilities. In this paper we are focused on analyzing purposed cross-platform models for data handling in medical purposes. The paper covers the techniques and models for medical data exchange in every level using cross-platform technologies and smart devices.
