Abstract

Systems, methods and computer program products for providing condition specific adaptive content include receiving condition specific information into a data repository, defining requirements corresponding to the condition specific information, building a condition specific application based on the requirements, configuring the condition specific application corresponding to user-specific attribute and delivering the condition specific application to a processing device that is operable to execute the condition specific application.

Claims

1. A method of providing condition specific adaptive content, the method comprising:

receiving condition specific information into a data repository;

defining condition specific application requirements corresponding to the condition specific information;

building a condition specific application based on the requirements;

configuring the condition specific application corresponding to user-specific attributes; and

delivering the condition specific application to a processing device that is operable to execute the condition specific application.

2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the processing device includes a mobile terminal.

3. The method according to claim 1, wherein receiving the condition specific information comprises receiving health condition related data.

4. The method according to claim 1, wherein receiving the condition specific information comprises receiving disease specific data.

5. The method according to claim 1, wherein defining requirements corresponding to the condition specific information comprises:

selecting a disease;

selecting at least one disease attribute of a plurality of disease attributes; and

selecting at least one disease functional component of the condition specific application corresponding to the selected at least one disease attribute.

6. The method according to claim 1, wherein building the condition specific application comprises:

defining function metadata corresponding to at least one functional component of the condition specific application;

defining at least one function element based on the function metadata; and

defining a function interface that corresponds to the at least one functional component of the condition specific application.

7. The method according to claim 1, wherein configuring the condition specific application corresponding to user-specific attributes comprises:

defining general rules and/or workflow corresponding to the condition specific application;

configuring a plurality of condition stages that are specific to the condition;

mapping a plurality of behavior stages of the user that correspond to ones of the plurality of condition stages; and

mapping knowledgebase content to the plurality of condition stages and/or the plurality of behavior stages.

8. The method according to claim 1, wherein delivering the condition specific application to the processing device that is operable to execute the condition specific application comprises:

assessing a plurality of capabilities corresponding to the processing device, the user and/or at least one peripheral device attached thereto;

packaging the condition specific application corresponding to the plurality of capabilities of the processing device, the user and/or at least one peripheral device; and

modifying the packaged condition specific application to include user specific data.

9. The method according to claim 1, further comprising modifying at least one component and/or operating mode of the condition specific application responsive to a change in the condition and/or user behavior.

10. A computer program product for providing condition specific adaptive content, the computer program product comprising a computer-readable medium having executable computer-readable program code therein, the computer-readable program code being configured to implement the method of claim 1.

11. A computer program product comprising:

a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therein, the computer readable program code comprising;

computer readable program code that is configured to define requirements corresponding to disease specific information;

computer readable program code that is configured to generate a disease specific application for execution on a mobile terminal, the disease specific application including functional elements corresponding to the disease and that is configured according to a stage of the disease and a corresponding patient behavioral stage; and

computer readable program code that is configured to deliver the disease specific application to the mobile terminal based on properties corresponding to the mobile terminal.

12. A computer system, comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor, the memory comprising computer readable program code embodied therein that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to;

receive condition specific information into a data repository;

define condition specific application requirements corresponding to the condition specific information;

build a condition specific application based on the requirements;

configure the condition specific application corresponding to user-specific attributes; and

deliver the condition specific application to a processing device that is operable to execute the condition specific application.

13. The computer system of claim 12, wherein the condition specific information comprises health condition related data.

14. The computer system of claim 12, wherein the condition specific information comprises receiving disease specific data.

15. The computer system of claim 12, wherein the processor is further caused to:

select a disease;

select at least one disease attribute of a plurality of disease attributes; and

select at least one disease functional component of the condition specific application corresponding to the selected at least one disease attribute.

16. The computer system of claim 12, wherein the processor is further caused to:

define function metadata corresponding to at least one functional component of the condition specific application;

define at least one function element based on the function metadata; and

define a function interface that corresponds to the at least one functional component of the condition specific application.

17. The computer system of claim 12, wherein the processor is further caused to:

define general rules and/or workflow corresponding to the condition specific application;

configure a plurality of condition stages that are specific to the condition;

map a plurality of behavior stages of the user that correspond to ones of the plurality of condition stages; and

map knowledgebase content to the plurality of condition stages and/or the plurality of behavior stages.

18. The computer system of claim 12, wherein processor is further caused to:

assess a plurality of capabilities corresponding to the processing device, the user and/or at least one peripheral device attached thereto;

package the condition specific application corresponding to the plurality of capabilities of the processing device, the user and/or at least one peripheral device; and

modify the packaged condition specific application to include user specific data.
