Abstract

Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is a potential technology for mobile web services. Accordingly, we assume that MCC is likely to be of great avail to healthcare domain. MCC offers new kinds of services and facilities for patients and caregivers. In this regard, we have tried to propose a new mobile medical web service system. The proposed system called Medical Cloud Multi Agent System is a complex system which integrates MCC and Multi Agent System in healthcare with view to improving healthcare system.
