Abstract

This work addresses an interdisciplinary area involving Computer Science, Engineering, Medicine, and Health. It aims to study and analyze different computational methods and technologies for the development of applications and software for use in the monitoring and management of health conditions. Specifically, the analysis will cover various Operating Systems (MS-WINDOWS, Apple iOS, LINUX), system development tools (e.g., PHP, JAVA, .NET, Slack, Azure, NODE-JS, JIRA, etc.), and databases (MYSQL, ORACLE, SQL Server). Following this technology-focused study, the research will shift to the application area in Medicine, with a particular focus on health conditions related to DIABETES MELLITUS (DM). After understanding the key conditions associated with this diagnosis, such as signs, symptoms, control, monitoring, use of blood pressure monitors, etc., a model will be designed, and a software application will be developed to address this health condition.
