Abstract
This document defines the middleware of a cyberphysical monitoring system for epilepsy and related brain disorders. Taking into account requirements, this document provides insights about the service functionalities of the middleware and the interfaces connecting the different technologies in place within the system middleware.
The document is divided into two main parts, the first part describes the functional, non-functional and security aspects of the middleware, while the second part is all necessary information about the middleware architecture.
The middleware runs within the Home Gateway, it is the ICT part responsible to connect sensor data to upper software layers (like personal health record service and the tele-alarm and messaging manager). Furthermore it provides the necessary infrastructure (thanks to the inclusion of a data stream management system) for the development of on-line multi-parametric data processing. Upper software layers connected are the Tele-alarm and Messaging Manager and the Personal Health Record. All middleware components follow a SOA (service oriented architecture) paradigm that allows easy scalability of the system.
