| Resumo: | The increasing incidence of chronic diseases is a major challenge for the healthcare sector. Personal Health Systems (PHSs) address the self-management of chronic diseases, by decentralizing the health monitoring outside hospitalized environments. Rule based agents allow bringing domain experts' knowledge into PHSs. However, agents must meet the requirements of real monitoring scenarios, characterized by high streams of events. Hence, in this work, an agent mind for an agent-oriented PHS is presented. It is based on the integration of a Cached Event Calculus reasoner, jREC, with the aim to monitor the health status of diabetic patients. The paper analyzes the performance of the proposed agent mind, by computing the time needed to trigger different type of alerts, when the number of recorded events (e.g. values of physiological parameters) increases. The results show the usefulness of the agent mind in monitoring scenarios as well as clear room for improvement when many events (> 500) need to be checked. |
