Method for increasing protection level of desktop PC type computer software application and user data using smartphone is proposed and presented in this paper. Smartphones are widely used, almost every person has one and manufacturers of smartphones offer wide range of the devices. All desktop computer applications for some particular and special purposes have applied some kind of protection. This...
In less than a decade, mobile and wireless technology has quickly evolved providing us means for pervasive computation and communication. Therefore, users quickly shifted from desktop/laptop computers to mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. This technology is part of everyday life, influencing almost all activities, including the way they learn. In this paper, we consider the use of mobile...
Communication has been a major problem for children with cognitive disabilities and spastic children. They are unable to effectively communicate their needs to their parents and caretakers. Modern advancements in communication technology, with increased capabilities of mobile phones, provide scope to design assistive technologies for these children. In this paper, we describe the design of a smartphone...
An approach is discussed to connect stand-alone devices to wireless services by adding Near Field Communication (NFC) capability to such devices. Research has shown that simple NFC interfaces can be built for the specific purpose of connecting to existing equipment that require regular monitoring or digital control. This fact can be exploited to enable wireless monitoring and control of both mobile...
The following document describes the way Mobile ELM works and what is its real life applicability in mobile equipment industry. The solution presented by us has the main advantage that it can use Bluetooth communication in order to create a communication channel between software that monitors hardware components, and our application that signals every undesirable behavior. In this way in the future...
Traditional public display systems have yet to reach their full potential when providing content to a variety of users from a diverse backgrounds, most notably, those able to understand a language other than that of the public display system in front of them. In this paper we propose a framework for content translation on public display systems. This system allows users to request for an application...
The Real Time Interactive Lecture Delivery System (RTILDS) project is motivated by the need to increase students' interaction with the lecturer in real time during a lecture. The completed system comprises of a website that maintains profiles of lecturers and lecture material (presentations, quizzes, student feedback, etc.). When the system is used at a lecture hall, the lecturers are allowed to choose...
Pocket Data Mining (PDM) is our new term describing collaborative mining of streaming data in mobile and distributed computing environments. With sheer amounts of data streams are now available for subscription on our smart mobile phones, the potential of using this data for decision making using data stream mining techniques has now been achievable owing to the increasing power of these handheld...
Traditionally, mobile devices have come with a set number of functionalities. Even when these have been augmented, this has rarely involved taking advantage of their complementary wireless capabilities (such as Bluetooth and GPS). The main focus of the research described in this paper was to create an application that takes advantage of the capabilities of Bluetooth to remote control any computer...
The Bluetooth specification describes a robust and powerful technology for short-range wireless communication. Unfortunately, the specification is immense and complicated, presenting a formidable challenge for novice developers. This paper is concerned with recording video from mobile phone to desktop computers and laptops. Users could be able to record huge data and stored in the computers within...
In this paper we present a concept for a test system, that can establish an IP connection over NFC. Any further IP data traffic is then tunneled through a wireless NFC link. Besides a short introduction about the NFC technology, this concept is described in the first part of the paper. This system has been realized with two NFC boards, each equipped with an NFC radio chip, and was tested on its performance...
Remote control becomes the mobile phone's important application field. This article introduces a scheme which uses mobile phone to control power point play in computer. So, lecturer doesn't need to turn back to the dais to leaf over the power point, thus he can communication with the audience without interrupt. This article design and implement mobile remote control system , which uses Bluetooth technology...
Applications of 3 dimensional (3-D) virtual reality are now possible on current mobile phones due to the advances in mobile 3-D graphics technologies. However, the user-interface to these applications is generally still limited to the basic phone keypad which detracts from the sophisticated experience 3-D worlds can provide. In this paper we present a solution to this problem which utilizes the accelerometers...
Bluetooth (BT) has become a standard for personal area networks connecting mobile devices including mobile phones, PDAs, laptop computers, headsets, keyboards and other devices. The most usual usage of BT networks is to connect one device to another device. However, the BT technology can also be used in other ways. This paper describes experiences from developing and exploring a BT broadcasting system...
Currently, robots are being used as teaching tools and can be found in K-12 and college classrooms. The primary appeal associated with employing robots is that they tend to capture the attention of the target audience and thereby facilitate the learning process. While there are numerous robotic kits on the market today, few can be used to teach both high-level concepts in computer science and engineering...
