788.11J Presentation “sensors for phishing” (CodeBlue(Health care)) Presented by Amr Ahmed Bhnasawi

The Main Idea This system must allow physicians, nurses, and others to assign quickly access rights to patient data and to determine handoff credentials when a patient is transferred to another unit or hospital.

The Main Achievements This project is supported by grants from the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, U.S. Army, as well as generous gifts from Sun Microsystems, Microsoft Corporation, Intel Corporation, Siemens AG, and ArsLogica. CodeBlue is also being used by the AID-N Project at Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory.

The Challenges Communication challenges  secure,reliable, ad hoc communication among groups of sensors and mobile, handheld devices. Computational challenges  have very limited computational power, and traditional security and encryption techniques are not well-suited to this domain Programming challenges  a cohesive communication and programmingmodel to underlie the system’s operation  software for sensor nodes is very low-level and does not provide higher-level services
