Lightweight Authentication Scheme for IoT Based E-Healthcare Service Communication.

Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) using Electronic Healthcare (E-health) is a growing phenomenon enabling doctors predict patient health such as possible cardiac arrests from identified abnormal arrythmia. Remote Patient Monitoring enables healthcare staff to notify patients with preventive measures to avoid a medical emergency reducing patient stress. However weak authentication security protocols in IoT wearables such as pacemakers, enable cyberattacks to transmit corrupt data, preventing patients from receiving medical care.

Enhancing battery efficiency for pervasive health-monitoring systems based on electronic textiles.

Electronic textiles are regarded as one of the most important computation platforms for future computer-assisted health-monitoring applications. In these novel systems, multiple batteries are used in order to prolong their operational lifetime, which is a significant metric for system usability. However, due to the nonlinear features of batteries, computing systems with multiple batteries cannot achieve the same battery efficiency as those powered by a monolithic battery of equal capacity.
