Toward a Case Study in Healthcare for Big Data Analytics and Security

33.1 Introduction

While the previous two chapters focused on security issues for Internet of things (IoT) system as well as discussed a sample system which was a connected smartphone system, in this section we will discuss a planned case study that we are beginning to explore for healthcare systems which we consider to be another example of an IoT system. As the use and combination of multiple big datasets become ubiquitous and the IoT becomes a reality, we increasingly need to deal with large volumes of heterogeneous datasets. Some of these datasets are discrete data points, others are images or gridded datasets (e.g., from meteorological models or satellites). Some ...
