It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 2015 ACM 5th International Workshop on Pervasive Wireless Healthcare (MobileHealth 2015). This year's workshop continues its tradition of being a forum for the presentation of research and development covering aspects of mobile health monitoring, diagnostics and analytics that are essential to improve safety and efficiency in health care. The goal of the workshop is to bring together medical device specialists, including researchers, developers, and caregivers, from clinical environments, industry, research laboratories, academia, and government to identify and address challenges facing the design, manufacture, certification, and use of mobile devices and data for health care. MobileHealth gives researchers and practitioners a unique opportunity to share their perspectives with others interested in the various aspects of mobile health.
The call for papers attracted submissions from Asia, Europe, Africa, and the United States. We also encourage attendees to attend the keynote and invited talk presentations. These valuable and insightful talks can and will guide us to a better understanding of the future:
Mobile Sensing and Beyond in the Information Age: An Experimental Perspective, Giovanni Pau (Pierre et Marie Curie University, Paris, France)
Mobile Health: An Illustration from a Tele-rehabilitation System for Upper-extremity Motor Training, Shih-Ching Yeh (Sun-Yat Sen University)
