Developing m-health application framework

e-Questionnaire system is a cross-platform and client-server interactive mobile application. The partner company can apply this single project on different platforms of mobile devices, such as Android, IOS, Blackberry and so on. In this project, the main scenario is that students use their smartphones and tablets to download and store questionnaires from remote server into local storage of mobile device. And locally interact with these data. Finally, collect and upload results from local storage back to remote server. As this application works in the wireless connection environment, low-bandwidth, latency and loss of connection are the main challenges. These issues will cause application lost connection, data inconsistent between client and server, and transmission data work with low rate. To overcome these challenges, e-Questionnaire system will provide offline capability, database synchronization, scalability and reliability.
