A design of the next generation mobile healthcare application for electronic medical and pharmaceutical ERP systems

Abstract

This thesis presents an architecture and design of a mobile healthcare application supporting the next generation electronic medical and pharmaceutical enterprise resource planning systems. The proposed mobile application will provide services to several parties in the healthcare sector such as patients, doctors and pharmacists. The proposed application aims to decrease the transaction processing time and cost, and to allocate flexibility to pervasively access the information anywhere, anytime and as needed. A prototype of the proposed mobile healthcare application was implemented using Java with MySQL and PHP.
