Abstract

Societies are undergoing unprecedented demographic and socio-economical changes on a pace that has never been experienced before. Health care models are in transition to remain affordable for governments and individuals. Mobile technology and cloud computing will play a major role in order to help to achieve the necessary level of virtualization and service aggregation. There are, however, technological challenges in terms of security, trust, user friendliness and deployment of innovative E-Health strategies.
