Mobil eşler arası bilgi sistemlerinde veri dağıtım stratejileri ve sağlık alanındaki uygulamaları

Peer-to-peer (P2P) architecture is becoming increasingly popular for variousapplications, replacing the classical Client-Server architecture. With theenhanced capabilities of mobile devices (PDAs, mobile phones, etc.) wirelessnetworks started to take advantage of P2P paradigm along with its propertieslike infrastructure-free operation, scalability, balanced and distributed workload.Mobile peer-to-peer (MP2P) networks refer to the application of P2P architectureover wireless networks. Problems about dissemination of data in both P2P andMP2P networks are widely studied, and there are many proposed solutions.Healthcare information systems are helping clinicians to hold the informationbelonging to patients and diseases, and to communicate with each othersince early 1950s. Today, they are widely used in hospitals, being constructedusing Client-Server network architecture. Wireless technologies are also appliedto medical domain, especially for monitoring purposes.In this thesis, we present and evaluate various data dissemination strategies towork on a mobile peer-to-peer (MP2P) network designed for a medical healthcareenvironment. First, the designed network system is presented along with the networktopology. Then, the proposed data dissemination strategies are described.And nally, these strategies are evaluated according to the properties and needsof a medical system.
