   abstract = {In this paper we present a prototypical pervasive health care infrastructure, whose purpose is the continuous monitoring of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus. In this infrastructure, patients are equipped with a body-area network made of sensors to control blood pressure and glucose levels, where the sensors are connected to a smart phone working as a hub to collect the data. These data is then fed to a pervasive GRID where abductive agents provide a diagnosis for the actual reading of the sensors and contacting health care professionals if necessary. We also show how, by applying the concept of agent environment, we are facilitated in e_ning a pervasive GRID for roaming agents that monitor continuously the health status of the patients.}
