An e-Health cloud. (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Buchanan, W. J., Thuemmler, C., Fan, L., Lo, O., & Khedim, A. S. (2010). An e-Health cloud.

A significant weakness within cloud-based systems is often their security. This presentation shows how a health care cloud has been created which preserves the rights of the patient to control access to their captured data, and then how this is used... Read More about An e-Health cloud..
