High-level system architecture illustrating HIoT integration into clinical healthcare. IoT sensors record measurements for a range of physiological and health-related physical attributes. The data is communicated over the network and aggregated in the cloud by IoT concentrators. Cloud-based analytics and inference algorithms operating on the data provide decision support to physicians via visualization interfaces, dashboards, and real-time alerts to individual users. Security and privacy solutions must be implemented to include other components, ensuring data protection from acquisition to storage.
