Abstract
In this research, we proposed an awareness system for self-diagnosis support. The system contains two circular layers. The inner layer is called disease awareness layer, which could be aware of the user's condition, and gives a diagnosis conclusion. The outer layer is the health awareness layer. It takes diagnosis conclusion as the input, generates possible solutions and exchanges information with the user. The user is not controlled by health awareness layer directly, but performs as an executant. Therefore, the system could understand most user conditions, show proper diagnosis and motivate users to adapt their behavior from sickness to health.
