A Cloud-based Model for Medical Diagnosis using Fuzzy Logic Concepts

Some Countries like Egypt and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) are facing health care challenges during the development and improving of the health sector. Recent technologies such as Cloud Computing can play an important role and enable new types of healthcare systems including medical diagnostic service to patients. The main services models for cloud computing includes: software, platform and infrastructure (as a service), to satisfy the needs of different kinds of organizations. By using cloud computing concepts, we will open some important area that is likely to have positive implications for cloud-based health care applications. From cloud computing point of view, we introduce a proposed application as HeathCare-as-a-Service (HC-AAS) model. The identification of system inputs, outputs, and rules are controlled by fuzzy logic operations. In this paper we propose a fuzzy model that will be used for developing a cloud-based health application for medical diagnostic. In addition to maintain the health record of patients, the proposed model will also use the diseases and their symptoms. Our main goal is to introduce a novel approach to develop medical diagnostic model that can help to improve the quality of healthcare in Egypt and KSA.
