Abstract
Day by day there is rapid research going in healthcare industry to improve or maintain health of people who are busy to earn money as well as who are already suffering from any chronic disease. This will include e-Health and m-Health patient monitoring systems more. We can say that monitoring can be taken either by e-Health monitoring devices or by Smart m-Health applications. This different patient monitoring systems will help patient or any common people to monitor himself without doctor’s intervention. So they are free to do checkup or monitoring at anytime, anywhere. This will also helps to achieve the principle goal/concept of ubiquitous computing (pervasive computing). Today everyone is moving towards ubiquitous computing with the help of nano/micro technology. Examples of UC are laptop, Smart phones, etc. that means technology is coming reaching towards user rather than human come to technology. So healthcare industry now a day’s serving their technology to users by considering goal of Ubiquitous Computing (UC).
