Tracy: Smartphone-based Contact Tracing Solution that Supports Self-investigation to Limit the Spread of COVID-19

Abstract: The unprecedented spread of COVID-19 pandemic has become the main challenge for several countries around the world. One of the crucial measures taken to control and manage the diffusion of COVID-19 pandemic is contact tracing. The approach is based on tracing and identifying people who have been exposed to an infected individual to prevent onward transmission by alerting those who came in contact with the positive case; thus, isolation measures and suitable precautions can be taken. By using the communication … Show more

“…Three studies relied on the principle of proximity using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology [17] [19] [20], one of which used GPS optionally to determine the location [20]. While the other three studies relied on the principle of location using GPS technology [21] [23] [24], one of them used BLE to improve location accuracy only [21], and another study used a QR code in tracking [22]. One study developed the application in a joint response interface for both smartphone and PC users utilizing the classic web stack: PHP and MySQL [23].…”

“…Nevertheless, if it is not used the application, the sites are added manually to the server via the "Report Case" window. In [24], the authors developed two algorithms. The first is used to extract the efficient points of the path of the person, utilizing the K-means algorithm to find the effective location by the data processing platform then send the results to all system-registered smartphones.…”
