CALL FOR PAPERS

15th IEEE International Conference on e-Health Networking, Application & 
Services (HEALTHCOM 2013)
Lisbon, Portugal  October 09-12,
 2013
http://www.ieee-healthcom.org

IEEE Healthcom 2013 is fully sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society. It 
aims at bringing together interested parties from around the world working in 
the health care field to exchange ideas, to discuss innovative and emerging 
solutions, and to develop
 collaborations. eHealth is defined as the cost-effective and secure use of 
information and communications technologies in support of health and the 
related fields, including health-care related services, surveillance, 
literature, education, knowledge, and research, both at the local site and at a
 distance. It will make personalised medicine possible and affordable in the 
near future. The adoption of eHealth technologies in medical fields creates 
huge opportunities yet lots of challenges still need to be resolved to build 
reliable, secure, and efficient networks or platforms with great flexibility.

Prospective authors are cordially invited to submit their original 
contributions covering completed or ongoing work related to the eHealth area. 
The topics include but are not limited to

- Biomedical and biosensors engineering
- Body sensor networks and wearable sensor systems
- Clinical biofeedback, decision support systems, and tools
- eHealth information and network Infrastructure
- eHealth for public health (including disease prevention, emergency 
preparedness, epidemiologic interventions)
- eHealth for aging (to support quality of life for older adults, aging in 
place and independence) 
- Emerging eHealth
 applications
- Health grid and health cloud
- Health monitoring, traffic characterisation, & management
- ICT-enabled personal health system
- Image and video processing on eHealth
- Network/Communications Infrastructures and Architectures for Healthcare
- New IT-enhanced Models for Healthcare delivery
- Pervasive and ubiquitous computing on eHealth
- Practical Applications of e-Health
- Security and privacy on eHealth
