Diabetes, depression, congestive heart failure, hepatitis, and asthma are examples of chronic diseases. A key success factor for Chronic Disease Management is self-management support. This is where people play an active role in their own care rather than the traditional view of patients as passive participants. Implementing this self-care approach is a major shift in healthcare delivery. Using diabetes as a case study, Inet supports researchers in using mobile technology on how to simplify and accelerate this transition.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\">Inet achievements are found in many published papers, chapters, posters and a book.
