Abstract: We present an IoT platform designed to support a number of usage scenarios with special emphasis on eHealth use cases. The platform architecture supports procedural and event driven services, as well as extension with additional data importers and visualisation modules and external devices. This broadens the scope of applicability and can support a variety of use cases beyond eHealth, such as home automation and network monitoring. In this paper, two existing eHealth use cases are explained in more detail.

Keywords: IoT platforms; internet of things; usage scenarios; e-health; well-being apps; visualisation; actuation; user interface; electronic healthcare; home automation; network monitoring; activity monitoring; physical activities; user motivation; healthier lifestyles.
