HPC4EAS members participation at the V ICT & Health Conference 2014 (5th,6th June, 2014) – Girona.

The V ICT & Health Conference has as main obectives: contact with the main stakeholders in ICT and health from the territories in the Euroregion, identify research projects and the groups, detect ICT research addressed to social welfare and quality of life & discover new examples of innovation in the territories.

The conference was intended to draw attention to the trends and projects of research in ICT applied to health (eHealth) and to social welfare that are being performed in the territories in the Pyrenees-Mediterranean Euroregion and to encourage international knowledge transfer. It becomes a Forum of technological innovation for sharing solutions, best practices and future trends in health and social welfare. This year the core theme of the conference was innovation in health and welfare.

Five HPC4EAS members participated at the Conference for presenting the work-in-progress & relevant research topics of the group in the area of Simulation & Optimization of Emergency Services in Hospitals (Smarter Health Services). The works presented were:
 

1. An Emergency Department simulator for supporting the decision making and improving the QoS.   Z. Liu, E. Luque, D. Rexachs, F. Epelde, E. Cabrera & M. Taboada
2. Modeling the contact propagation of nosocomiall infection in Emergency Departments.   C. Jaramillo, D. Rexachs, F. Epelde, M. Taboada & E. Luque
