In infectious disease diagnosis, results need to be rapidly communicated to doctors once testing has been completed, in order for care pathways to be implemented. This is a challenge when testing in remote low-resource rural communities, in which such diseases often create the largest burden. Here we report a smartphone-based end-to-end platform for multiplexed DNA malaria diagnosis.

With increased demand for tele-rehabilitation, many autonomous home-based rehabilitation systems have appeared recently. Many of these systems, however, suffer from lack of patient acceptance and engagement or fail to provide satisfactory accuracy; both are needed for appropriate diagnostics. This paper first provides a detailed discussion of current sensor-based home-based rehabilitation systems with respect to four recently established criteria for wide acceptance and long engagement.

We consider the problem of assigning software processes (or tasks) to hardware processors in distributed robotics environments. We introduce the notion of a , which supports the adaptation of software to specific hardware configurations. Task variants facilitate the trade-off of functional quality versus the requisite capacity and type of target execution processors.
