<span>and</span> systems towards the development <span>and</span> integration of innovative computer, software
<span>and</span> applications supporting the transformation of <span>health</span>
<span>and</span> medicine. Advances in communications, computer, <span>and</span> medical technology have facilitated the practice of personalized
<span>health</span>, which utilizes sensory computational communication systems to support improved
<span>and</span> more personalized <span>health</span>care <span>and</span> <span>
health</span>y lifestyle choices. The proliferation of broadband wireless services, along with more powerful
<span>and</span> convenient handheld devices, is helping to introduce real-time monitoring
<span>and</span> guidance for a wide array of patients. Research community <span>
and</span> industry are now connecting medical care with technology developers, vendors of wireless
<span>and</span> sensing hardware systems, network service providers, <span>and</span> data management communities. </span></p>
