ABSTRACT

The increased use of Mobile Technologies and Smart Devices in the area of health has caused great impact on
the world. Health experts are increasingly taking advantage of the benefits these technologies bring, thus
generating a significant improvement in health care in clinical settings and out of them. Likewise, countless
ordinary users are being served from the advantages of the M-Health (Mobile Health) applications and E-
Health (health care supported by ICT) to improve, help and assist their health. The aim of this paper is to
develop an architecture based on an ontology capable of monitoring the health and workout routine
recommendations to patients with chronic diseases.
