Abstract

Provided is a system and method for processing medical information through a medical terminal. The system includes a mobile cloud system unit and a service browser unit. The service browser unit is configured as an application in a user terminal to allow a user to use a medical information processing service, and induces access to the mobile cloud system unit taking charge of medication information processing.

Claims

1. A system for processing medical information through a medical terminal, comprising:

a mobile cloud system unit;

a service browser unit configured as an application in a user terminal to allow a user to use a medical information processing service, and inducing access to the mobile cloud system unit taking charge of medication information processing, and

a medical information processing software module,

wherein the service browser unit comprises;

a user interface module providing a service application of an icon type to the user through access identification and location information of the user using a mobile browser;

an event module generating event information for extracting a module for configuring a service necessary in each region of a mobile cloud server configuring the medical information processing service;

a session module managing a network environment of the user and maintaining a connection situation according to a change of the network environment;

a conversion module encoding and converting the location information of the user and the event information into a compression code according to a predetermined protocol;

a security module encoding the location information of the user and the event information configured by the conversion module to securely configure virtualization of the mobile cloud server together with user access information;

a network module delivering the location information of the user and the event information to the mobile cloud system unit and monitoring a network state; and

a service handler configuring a user interface with information received from the mobile cloud system unit, sensing an interface touch operation, and monitoring a service operation, and

the user configures user situation information showing a user situation in a smart phone to transmit to the mobile cloud system unit in real-time, and submits the user situation information generated in the user interface module and the event information generated in the event module to the mobile cloud system unit,

wherein medical information processing software module comprise;

an adjustment module providing medical information divided by service user and a service corresponding thereto;

a scheduler module adjusting a schedule according to the service;

a distributed data module dividing data by type and clustering the data; and

a platform connection module providing a connection function of platforms managing resources, and usable in a smart phone and processing medical information in real-time,

wherein the scheduler module comprises;

a service resource scheduling module managing software resources, hardware resources, and authority to use service application for checking a service state value from the location information of the user and the event information and outputting service information; and

a service distribution scheduling module managing and distributing medical information and service scheduling, and authority transfer for service resources of the service resource scheduling module, and

wherein the service distribution scheduling module provides a function of assigning a storage space and service resources to the service information provided to the user according to utilization degree thereof and monitoring and managing the service information, and outputting details of resources and packet distribution for delivering the information provided to the user on a screen.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the service browser unit comprises an interface function of accessing from a smart phone to a cloud system and a function of outputting and managing data generated by the user touch operation and service software processing an event generated by the touch operation and expressed as an icon usable by user.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the scheduler module further comprises a medical information scheduling module processing an event of a user received from a mobile device and analyzing the service information.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein the distributed data module has a function of classifying data used by users, and clustering the data to store location, characteristics, and grade in a metadata database and retrieving the data by characteristics.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein the platform connection module provides a function of connecting between platforms for managing a cloud system for medical information processing and information resources and allows a smart phone terminal comprising a function of virtualizing resources necessary for service processing to access the cloud system.

6. The system of claim 3, wherein the medical information scheduling module provides a function of analyzing medical information necessary for service and securing a relationship therebetween to support a decision-making necessary for medical service, in a mobile cloud system receiving an operation that a user receiving medical information adjusted according to a user grade and service application performs in a smart phone as an event.

7. The system of claim 1, wherein the service resource scheduling module provides a function of checking the state value according to an operation of a service event generated from a smart phone terminal by a user, securing an authority to use and access a service application for transmitting information necessary for a service to a browser, and collecting software resources and hardware resources necessary for the service to manage all resources used for the service.

8. The system of claim 1, further comprising an adjustment module for providing medical information divided by service user and a service corresponding thereto, the adjustment module comprising:

a user access adjustment module managing adjustment of user grades for processing and information access limitations and

an application adjustment module adjusting and providing a service application provided according to the grade of a user connected to a mobile cloud system supporting medical information integration processing.
