Abstract (Spanish)
Dado el grave impacto que las enfermedades cardiovasculares están teniendo en las muertes de Colombia, la Escuela Colombiana de Ingeniería viene desarrollando una plataforma para el procesamiento remoto de señales cardíacas en tiempo real. Uno de los principales retos de este tipo de plataformas, asumiendo una población relativamente grande transmitiendo sus señales de manera continua, es garantizar buenos tiempos de respuesta para todos los actores del sistema (médicos, familiares, etc.), lo que no siempre es posible con los modelos de aplicación que se han utilizado tradicionalmente para construir la mayoría de los servicios que residen en la Web. Este artículo describe una arquitectura de software alternativa propuesta para el backend de dicho sistema de telemedicina, que considera los modelos de programación sin bloqueo y basado en actores, como una alternativa al modelo multihilo, y como un medio para simplificar la escalabilidad de dicho sistema.
Abstract (English)
Given the serious impact that cardiovascular diseases are having in Colombia's deaths, the Colombian School of Engineering has been developing a platform for remote, real time, cardiac signals processing. One of the main challenges of this type of platform, assuming a relatively large population continuously transmitting their signals, is to guarantee good response times for all system's stakeholders (doctors, family, etc.), which is not always possible with the application models that have been traditionally used to build most of services that reside on the Web. This article describes an alternative software architecture proposed for the backend of such telemedicine system, which considers the non-blocking and actor-based programming models, as an alternative to the multi-thread model, and as a mean to simplify such system's scalability.
