Predictive wellness management

Abstract

Socially aware guidance and differential access controls within a control zone are determined for users based on individual wellness goals and predicted wellness patterns. Users are socially grouped based on wellness goals and predicted responsiveness to achieving the wellness goals. Biometric data obtained from users from social situations and activities provide insight into individual wellness progress and achievement of individual wellness goals. Predicted wellness patterns further assist users with achieving wellness goals through socially aware guidance and differential access controls.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 - 8 . (canceled) 
     
     
         9 . A computer program product for predicting wellness patterns, the computer program product comprising:

 program instructions to identify a set of users within a specified region, each user having a set of individual wellness targets; 
 program instructions to receive a set of biometric data for a sub-set of the users at a location within the specified region; 
 program instructions to forecast a wellness pattern for the sub-set of users based on the set of biometric data; and 
 responsive to the forecasted wellness pattern for the sub-set of users at the location, program instructions to adjust an access control for an object within the location. 
   
     
     
         10 . The computer program product of  claim 9 , the stored program instructions further comprising:
 program instructions to determine the set of individual wellness targets for the set of users.   
     
     
         11 . The computer program product of  claim 9 , the stored program instructions further comprising:
 program instructions to determine a subset of users based on the set of individual wellness targets.   
     
     
         12 . The computer program product of  claim 9 , wherein the specified region is within a physical structure. 
     
     
         13 . The computer program product of  claim 9 , the stored program instructions further comprising:
 program instructions to store individual biometric data associated with the users;   wherein:   forecasting the wellness pattern is further based on the stored individual biometric data of the sub-set of users.   
     
     
         14 . The computer program product of  claim 9 , the stored program instructions further comprising:
 program instructions to monitor the set of users for physical characteristics;   program instructions to determine a first physical characteristic of a first user and a second physical characteristic of a second user;   program instructions to store a set of physical characteristics associated respectively with the set of users;   program instructions to receive group biometric data for each user in the set of users; and   program instructions to direct the first user to access a secure space in the specified region where the second user is located based on the first physical characteristic, the second physical characteristic, and corresponding biometric data of the first user and the second user;   wherein:   the directing step includes adjusting an access control to the secure space.   
     
     
         15 . The computer program product of  claim 14 , wherein:
 forecasting the wellness pattern includes:
 determining a physical characteristic trend based on the stored physical characteristics of the set of users. 
   
     
     
         16 . The computer program product of  claim 9 , the stored program instructions further comprising:
 program instructions to compare the forecasted wellness pattern with the set of individual wellness targets.   
     
     
         17 . A computer system for predicting wellness patterns, the computer system comprising:
 one or more computer processors;   one or more computer readable storage device;   program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage devices for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the stored program instructions comprising:
 program instructions to identify a set of users within a specified region, each user having a set of individual wellness targets; 
 program instructions to receive a set of biometric data for a sub-set of the users at a location within the specified region; 
 program instructions to forecast a wellness pattern for the sub-set of users based on the set of biometric data; and 
 responsive to the forecasted wellness pattern for the sub-set of users at the location, program instructions to adjust an access control for an object within the location. 
   
     
     
         18 . The computer system of  claim 17 , the stored program instructions further comprising:
 program instructions to determine the set of individual wellness targets for the set of users.   
     
     
         19 . The computer system of  claim 17 , the stored program instructions further comprising:
 program instructions to determine a subset of users based on the set of individual wellness targets.   
     
     
         20 . The computer system of  claim 17 , wherein the specified region is within a physical structure. 
     
     
         21 . The computer system of  claim 17 , the stored program instructions further comprising:
 program instructions to store individual biometric data associated with the users;   wherein:   forecasting the wellness pattern is further based on the stored individual biometric data of the sub-set of users.   
     
     
         22 . The computer system of  claim 17 , the stored program instructions further comprising:
 program instructions to monitor the set of users for physical characteristics;   program instructions to determine a first physical characteristic of a first user and a second physical characteristic of a second user;   program instructions to store a set of physical characteristics associated respectively with the set of users;   program instructions to receive group biometric data for each user in the set of users; and   program instructions to direct the first user to access a secure space in the specified region where the second user is located based on the first physical characteristic, the second physical characteristic, and corresponding biometric data of the first user and the second user;   wherein:   the directing step includes adjusting an access control to the secure space.   
     
     
         23 . The computer system of  claim 22 , wherein:
