Mobile-cloud-based healthcare applications are increasingly growing in practice. For instance, healthcare, transport, and shopping applications are designed on the basis of the mobile cloud. For executing mobile-cloud applications, offloading and scheduling are fundamental mechanisms. However, mobile healthcare workflow applications with these methods are widely ignored, demanding applications in various aspects for healthcare monitoring, live healthcare service, and biomedical firms. However, these offloading and scheduling schemes do not consider the workflow applications' execution in their models. This paper develops a lightweight secure efficient offloading scheduling (LSEOS) metaheuristic model. LSEOS consists of light weight, and secure offloading and scheduling methods whose execution offloading delay is less than that of existing methods. The objective of LSEOS is to run workflow applications on other nodes and minimize the delay and security risk in the system. The metaheuristic LSEOS consists of the following components: adaptive deadlines, sorting, and scheduling with neighborhood search schemes. Compared to current strategies for delay and security validation in a model, computational results revealed that the LSEOS outperformed all available offloading and scheduling methods for process applications by 10% security ratio and by 29% regarding delays.

Mobile edge computing offloads compute-intensive tasks generated on mobile wireless devices (WD) to edge servers (ES), which provides mobile users with low-latency computing services. Opportunistic computing offloading is effective to enhance computing performance in dynamic edge network environments; however, careless offloading of tasks to ESs can lead to WDs preempting network computing resources with limited bandwidth, thereby resulting in inefficient allocation of computing resources. To address these challenges, this paper proposes the density clustering and ensemble learning training-based deep reinforcement learning (DCEDRL) method for task offloading decision-making in mobile edge computing (MEC).

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a brain disorder causing issues among many young children. For children suffering from ASD, their learning ability is typically slower when compared to normal children. Therefore, many technologies aiming to teach ASD children with optimized learning approaches have emerged.

Objectives: To explore the implementation of a provincial virtual paediatric consulting service, Child Health Advice in Real-Time Electronically (CHARLiE), integrated into the paediatric on-call schedule in Northwestern British Columbia.
Methods: Healthcare providers in Northwestern British Columbia responded to a survey (n = 72) and participated in focus groups (n = 35) and key informant interviews (n = 4) to share their experiences engaging in a healthcare model that incorporated virtual paediatric consultants in lieu of in-person local paediatrician coverage over a 28-month period. Survey data was analyzed using descriptive statistics.
