The numbers of patients with skin diseases reported a dramatic increase which is a major concern and must be dealt with. The method of diagnosis is always based on physician’s observations and experiences. Many common symptoms such as side effects, allergies and even risks of skin cancer can be seen in someone following misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis and failure to diagnose. The evaluation of skin changes is crucial to the correct diagnosis during follow-up. Through technological advances and partnerships, skin disorders can be identified and predicted and medical diagnosis outside physical limits are made. The article proposed an IoT-based skin surveillance system that facilitates the monitoring of skin patients in remote locations. In a diagnostic device for real-time skin monitoring and analysis, the proposed system architecture can be applied. A sensor fitted medical carriage is proposed in a remote location to treat individuals suffering from a common skin disorder. The system is also designed to research the impact of climate change on the disease through environmental sensors and provide pre-alertfor prevention. This addresses the many problems that people in remote areas without restricted treatment facilities face.

“…Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the network of physical objects having the ability to communicate with each other in an ubiquitous way through different technologies [1]. They are used to ensure communication services in many application scenarios such as healthcare [2], industrial automation [3], [4], and smart homes [5]. However, sensor nodes are small and battery powered.…”

The RPL routing protocol is designed to respond to the requirements of a large range of Low-power and Lossy Networks (LLNs). RPL uses an objective function (OF) to build the route toward a destination based on routing metrics. Considering only a single metric, some network performances can be improved while others may be degraded. In this paper, we present a flexible Objective Function based on Expected Transmission Count (ETX), Consumed Energy and Forwarding Delay (OF-ECF) built on a combination of metrics using an additive method. The main goal of this proposed solution is to balance energy consumption and minimize the average delay. To improve the reliability of the network, a flexible routing scheme that provides the diversity of paths and a higher availability is presented. Simulations results show that the new objective function OF-ECF outperforms the OF-FUZZY, and the standards OF0 and MRHOF. In terms of network lifetime and reliability.

“…[3][4][5][6] In addition, the effect of thermal dissipation on human tissues is another prominent and neglected issue required to be properly addressed. In fact, tiny IoMT nodes implanted beneath the skin or placed on-body emit heat mainly due to the following three operations: [7][8][9][10] transmission and reception of radio signals, computations within IoMT, and sensing operations.…”

Unlike many other Internet of Things applications, in addition to the limited power of Internet of Medical Things devices, the safety aspect and reliability are the major concerns while designing wireless body area network routing solutions. In fact, the heat dissipation from Internet of Medical Things devices and changes in body posture cause tissue damage and frequent wireless links breakage, respectively. Hence, designing an efficient routing solution is extremely challenging in wireless body area network. Considering the safety aspects of human body, the power constraint of Internet of Medical Things devices, and topological variations in wireless body area network environment, this article presents a thermalaware, energy-efficient, and reliable routing protocol named thermal and energy aware routing. In the given perspective, thermal and energy aware routing considers the weighted average of three costs while selecting the routing path: energy consumption, heat dissipation, and link quality (between communicating nodes). The proposed protocol is validated by a comparison with a state-of-the-art wireless body area network routing protocol. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed protocol is efficient in terms of energy consumption, thermal impact, and packet reception rate.
