Abstract
Cloud Computing and mobile technology have become an integral part of society, changing how we interact with devices and each other. In this context, users are able to connect with other users/devices anywhere and anytime, taking advantage of endless possibilities in different areas. One of these areas is healthcare, where cloud features can cover important healthcare requirements such as information exchange, security, privacy and scalability of solutions to support users’ needs. In this paper we introduce a Cloud-supported e-Rehabilitation platform for Brain-Injured patients and health professionals. The goal of the platform is the improvement of the quality of life of patients, providing asynchronous remote interaction between health professionals and patients.
