Adding to the characteristics presented in the previous
Section, we try to shed more light, in this Section, on
our application’s strengths. More precisely, our application
is capable of personalizing the web services by assigning
specific services to specific agents. Traditionally, the issue of
personalization is a rather complex one with many aspects and
viewpoints that need to be analyzed and resolved. Some of
these issues become even more complicated once viewed from
a moving user’s perspective, in other words when constraints
of mobile channels and devices are involved [12]. Such issues
include, but are not limited to, the following: what content
to present to the user, how to show the content to the user,
how to ensure the user’s privacy, or how to create a global
personalization scheme. Nevertheless, these issues are solved
via the configuration of our centralized m-health ecosystem.
More precisely, using the NFC technology can guarantee, first
of all, a simple and ease recognition form between the agents,
and, secondly, a secure identification process [7]; which is seen
as the most important aspect. Adding to this, transferring data
between agents relies on a secure process as it is based on the
use of the SOAP protocol [10].
