医疗网络和计算基础设施正在从封闭环境迅速转变为开放环境，其中包含新设备和新应用场景。基于家庭的医疗保健就是这样一个例子，利用无处不在的传感器和分析传感器数据（通常是实时的）来指导治疗或干预。在本文中，我们将讨论在异构云环境中设计和部署医疗保健应用程序时在法规遵从性方面的挑战。我们提出了CareNet框架，由一组API和安全的数据传输机制，以促进规范的基于家庭的医疗服务上运行的软件定义的基础设施（SDI）。这项工作是计算机科学家、医学研究人员、医疗保健IT和医疗保健提供商之间的合作，其目标是减少SDI的可用性与满足医疗保健应用中的法规遵从性之间的差距。我们的原型证明了该框架的可行性，并作为新兴的医疗保健应用的新的实验研究的测试平台。
Healthcare network and computing infrastructure is rapidly changing from closed environments to open environments that incorporate new devices and new application scenarios. Home-based healthcare is such an example of leveraging pervasive sensors and analyzing sensor data (often in real-time) to guide therapy or intervene. In this paper, we address the challenges in regulatory compliance when designing and deploying healthcare applications on a heterogeneous cloud environment. We propose the CareNet framework, consisting of a set of APIs and secure data transmission mechanisms, to facilitate the specification of home-based healthcare services running on the software-defined infrastructure (SDI). This work is a collaboration among computer scientists, medical researchers, healthcare IT and healthcare providers, and its goal is to reduce the gap between the availability of SDI and meeting regulatory compliance in healthcare applications. Our prototype demonstrates the feasibility of the framework and serves as testbed for novel experimental studies of emerging healthcare applications.
