Design and implementation of healthcare resource model on IoTivity platform

Internet of Things (IoT) has several use case domains. Among them, ‘healthcare’ should be one of the most promising area as many healthcare devices begin to connect each other. To implement these IoT use cases, a proper IoT platform should be required. Currently IoT platform market is an arena of competition: IoTivity (from Open Connectivity Foundation (OCF)), AllJoyn (from AllSeen Alliance), oneM2M global initiative, Thread (from Google), and others. In this paper we introduce healthcare resource model that we are standardizing in healthcare task group (HCTG) of OCF and e-healthcare implementation based on IoTivity platform.
