Integration of Machine Learning with Fog Computing for Health Care Systems Challenges and Issues: A Review

Abstract

Fog computing, a distributed cloud computing model, extends the traditional cloud paradigm to the network's edge, reducing latency and alleviating congestion. It addresses challenges in classical cloud architectures exacerbated by real-time IoT applications, which produce massive amounts of data that traditional cloud computing struggles to process due to limited bandwidth and high propagation delays. Fog computing is crucial in latency-sensitive applications like health monitoring and surveillance, where it processes vast volumes of data, minimizing delays and boosting performance. This technology brings computation, storage, monitoring, and services closer to the end-user, enhancing real-time decision-making capabilities. This paper presents the challenges of IoT applications. It also demonstrates the role of two emerging technologies fog computing and machine learning in health care scenarios.
