Show full item recordThis thesis explores techniques, models and algorithms for an efficient management of Cloud
systems and how to apply them to the healthcare sector in order to improve current treatments. It
presents two Cloud-based eHealth applications to telemonitor and control smoke-quitting and
hypertensive patients. Different Cloud-based models were obtained and used to develop a Cloudbased
infrastructure where these applications are deployed. The results show that these
applications improve current treatments and that can be scaled as computing requirements grow.
Multiple Cloud architectures and models were analyzed and then implemented using different
techniques and scenarios. The Smoking Patient Control (S-PC) tool was deployed and tested in a
real environment, showing a 28.4% increase in long-term abstinence. The Hypertension Patient
Control (H-PC) tool, was successfully designed and implemented, and the computing boundaries
were measured
