What is ETSI?
ETSI: European Telecommunications Standardisation Institute
ICT standards organization, private not for profit
Created 1988, is now an internationally recognized multinational SDO
Global membership (670+ Members, 80% industry, 20% overseas)
Worldwide industrial hits (fixed, mobile, broadcast)…
Favours partnerships (regional/technical)
Founding
partner and home of the 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership
project) (EU/US/China/Japan/Korea)
Broadcast
(EBU/CLC)
Interoperability services (test specs, test
suites, interop testing-”PlugTests”)
All deliverables available free of charge

What is an STF?
STF: Specialist Task Force
An STF is a team of experts working together over a predefined period to draft an ETSI standard or technical report,
under the guidance of an ETSI Technical Body and with the
support of the ETSI Secretariat.
The task of the STF is to accelerate the standardisation
process in areas of strategic importance and in response to
urgent market needs.
STF work is normally done by the
experts in common sessions in the
ETSI premises of Sophia Antipolis.
Experts for STFs can be proposed
by ETSI Members or supported by
ETSI Members.

ETSI focus on standards
Technical interoperability:
Between systems (end-to-end interface, protocols)
Between building blocks (system architecture)
Between components (component design)
Reduce costs
Component-based development
Shorter development cycles
Easy integration
Expand markets
Enable competition
Faster learning
Create trust and confidence in products
Testing:
Conformance tests
Interoperability tests
Market validation
Systems integration

Open process
Open meetings: All stakeholders may participate in the
standards development process
Consensus:
All interests are discussed and
agreement found
Due process:
Balloting and appeal process may be
used to find resolution
Open IPR:
IPR holders must identify themselves
during standards development process
Open access:
Open access to all deliverables
Open World:
Same standard for the same function
world-wide
Open interfaces: Allow additional functions, public or
proprietary
Open markets: Interoperability, users are not locked in
with one supplier or service provider

ETSI and e-health
The EU Commission has encouraged ETSI to continue its
e-Health work and has already promised funding for 2007.
Creation of starter group to prepare a Technical Committee
Need for standardization:
Basic level: by mid 2004, a European Health Identity
Card (EHIC) shall be introduced (already achieved).
National level: by 2005, EU member states are required
to develop national and regional e Health strategies.
Interoperability level: by 2006, national healthcare
networks should be well advanced in their efforts to
exchange information, including client identifiers.
Networked level: by 2008, health information and
services such as e-prescription, e-referral,
telemonitoring and telecare, are to become
commonplace, accessible over both fixed and mobile
broadband networks.

Telecare is…
ICT-enabled delivery of health and social care services to
individuals within the home or a wider area, involving
clients, carers and coordination agents.
A Business-to-Consumer (B2C) service model, including:
information and communication services;
safety and security monitoring;
personal monitoring;
electronic assistive technologies.
NOT telemedicine, a service offered to and used by
healthcare professionals!
a Business- to-Business (B2B) service model

Evolution of Telecare Services
1st Generation
Social alarms - dispersed panic alarm with pendant and
pull cords
Addition of passive sensors for auto alerts
An existing care intervention package
2nd Generation
Telecare systems - adaptive, personalised but event
driven
Exhibits aspects of reasoning
An emerging care intervention package
3rd Generation
Well-being analysis - pre-emptive, long term trend
analysis
Migrates Telecare from a crisis safety net to an
assessment tool
Will enable intervention outcome measures and
optimisation

Rationale for our work
Telecare must move from the research phase to the commercial
phase / real world, considering:
Intuitive and simple user interfaces
Reliability
Security and privacy issues
Interoperability
Business models
A user centred approach is required!
