9. 3 rd International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 31 st Aug.-1 st Sep. 2012 Hyderabad, India HYPOTHESIS:  The availability of next generation networks like, Ultra Wide Band (UWB) and 3G wireless networks have widened the use of multivariate systems.  Thus, the use of parallel processing complexity in the field of knowledge management e-health grid networks would provide huge public health monitoring in case of bioterrorism.  The aim is to design and simulate such a complex system to manage public health in order to take preventive measures in the critical situations, when biological attacks are both natural and un-natural.

10. 3 rd International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 31 st Aug.-1 st Sep. 2012 Hyderabad, India RESEARCH OBJECTIVES:  To design a system to convert serial into parallel multivariate system, in order to solve the problem among various patients, processing systems and experts in the relevant fields.  To observe the wired and wireless systems used in collecting the vital signs data for patient management and expert opinion from distant.  To take advantages of e-health grid web-portal system for immediate measures to protect public health.  Finally, to develop simulative model to protect bioterrorism using 3G wireless networks.

11. 3 rd International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 31 st Aug.-1 st Sep. 2012 Hyderabad, India 3 rd International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 31 st Aug.-1 st Sep. 2012 Hyderabad, India Use of e-Health Grid Network  e-health grid network is feasible, when multiple resources are shared in the form of distributed data.  In the e-health care system, we are remotely consulting the public health monitoring in the distributed manner.  Moreover, in this system it is mostly required that data could be managed in such a way to satisfy the public health care requirements.  When remote grid system is involved the requirement is that data should be secure to the public satisfaction in terms of reliability and security.

12. 3 rd International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 31 st Aug.-1 st Sep. 2012 Hyderabad, India 3 rd International Conference on Transforming Healthcare with IT 31 st Aug.-1 st Sep. 2012 Hyderabad, India  The concept of e-health grid can be thought of as a public health monitoring and knowledge management system, as illustrated in Fig. 1.
