Health Research Requires Efficient Platforms for Data Collection from Personal Devices

Stud Health Technol Inform. 2023 May 18:302:841-845. doi: 10.3233/SHTI230286.

Abstract

Data from consumer-based devices for collecting personal health-related data could be useful in diagnostics and treatment. This requires a flexible and scalable software and system architecture to handle the data. This study examines the existing mSpider platform, addresses shortcomings in security and development, and suggests a full risk analysis, a more loosely coupled component- based system for long term stability, better scalability, and maintainability. The goal is to create a human digital twin platform for an operational production environment.

Keywords: Human Digital Twin; Infrastructure; Scalability.
