Abstract

In this demonstration, we show how the MAGPIE agent platform works. The aim of this platform is to help on the development of Personal Health Systems (PHSs) for monitoring chronic diseases. The agents of the platform use a symbolic reasoning approach to formalize the events happening to the patient. We developed an Android application based on MAGPIE where we formalized the reasoning for monitoring patients affected by diabetes mellitus.
