Knowledge building. During the project, consortium members will build knowledge that can be applied to the development of future services, research grant applications, teaching programmes etc. Key questions that will be answered include: How can ubiquitous ICT systems, that allow long term monitoring, be used in preventive healthcare systems? How can multisource data be combined in decision-making processes? What are the key elements of health and behavioural data that are needed in preventive healthcare systems? How can healthcare services, self-management tools, data trackers etc be combined in an intelligent healthcare system? How can motivational techniques, such as motivational interviewing and gamification, be used to support behavioural change? What are the key elements that encourage users to engage with the system in the mid- to long-term, and reinforce commitment to behaviour change? How can an individual’s behaviour be facilitated towards healthier lifestyles?
