Abstract:
Blood donation mobile applications are efficient tools to increase awareness about the importance of blood donation acts and to attract blood donors. The aim of this paper is to define a reusable requirements repository (catalog) for blood donation applications based on the main related software engineering standards, e-health technology standards and literature. The catalog contains requirements regarding internationalization to bridge the cultural and language barriers among blood donors. It includes also requirements for sustainable blood donation applications which cover the individual, social, environmental, and technical dimensions of sustainability. This catalog can be very useful to develop, evaluate and audit blood donation applications and it can be adapted to other m-health applications.
