With the giddy growth of the amount of the information data through constant interaction and sharing in daily life, the mobile Internet has shifted from the lack of information to information overload. How to satisfy readers' individual needs from the disorder and mixture data has become an urgent problem to be solved. This paper combines the context information into the recommended process, and constructs...
System response time can greatly affect the user experience. Society has entered the mobile Internet era, and in mobile applications, as carriers of the mobile Internet, response time is an important performance index related to users' attention. Previous studies of user experience of response time have focused more on computers and websites and less on mobile applications. The current study develops...
The Domain Name System (DNS) is used almost everywhere in mobile networks to determine the IP addresses of the network elements and thanks to the DNS architecture of the inter-operator IP backbone network, a network element of a public mobile network (PMN) can easily determine IP addresses of any other PMN. The analysis of some customers' complaints showed that it could be the cause of billing mistakes...
End-to-end communications with Internet-integrated sensing devices will contribute to the enabling of many of the envisioned IoT applications. Communication technologies with this purpose are currently being designed based on the 6LoWPAN adaptation layer, and of particular interest is CoAP (Constrained Application Protocol). The support of security in end-to-end CoAP communications with mobile Internet-integrated...
User interest acquisition facilitates customized service by figuring out user preferences in various areas, such as recommendation system and intelligence city. Mobile Internet enriches traditional user behaviors (such as who (user), when (time) and what (content)) by introducing where (mobility) into the analysis of user interest acquisition. However, user mobility is highly predictable, and user...
In the present mobile climate, both companies as well as their consumers are able to execute various processes at any time in any location using a myriad of wireless technologies. Organizational trends demonstrate that mobile devices are being utilized exponentially more to solve problems from the strategic planning level to the operational level through various departments. This propensity was recently...
Despite the advancements made towards learning such as technological innovations in the classroom and access to learning in general, there are significant challenges that remain especially the modes of delivery of quality education apart from the traditional classroom teaching and learning. In the endeavour to discover feasible solutions for these challenges, much trust has been put in new data and...
The current emergency services are mostly using old-fashioned generic voice-based technologies. Hence, proliferating smart and powerful end-user devices, which are quasi-permanently connected to the Internet is still weakly considered. Given that fact, we design and develop YouSOS, a framework extending the usability of conventional SOS services. YouSOS is built in a way that centralizes rescue operations'...
Users' acceptance of a new information technology (IT) is a determining factor of its market success. A solid understanding of the users' adoption process and use behavior enables a more robust definition of user requirements and better market alignment. This is especially important in markets characterized by rapid technological change such as smartphones. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is...
Online social networks have long been studied by researchers to unearth the common patters of socializing among human beings. Recently, there is considerable interest in Internet-of-Things which is an interaction of smart physical objects augmented with sensing devices. However, there is hardly any research on intra-smart object interactions and interactions among smart physical objects and humans...
Within the Internet of Things (IoT), Smart Things (STs) promise to permeate all contexts of daily life, offering digital access to their physical functionality. Mobile users then would be able to ubiquitously and spontaneously interact with things they encounter, enabling a wealth of diverse usage scenarios and applications. Currently, however, ST interaction requires a pre-controlled Internet or...
Augmented reality has the potential to provide powerful, contextual, and situated learning experiences for medical students. There are need learning theories to guide the design of AR in health education to bring out the potentials. The objectives of this paper is to present the learning theories which could be supported AR in health education. We propose use situation learning, experiential learning;...
The paper presents category classification of mobile travel applications accessible at the moment for tourists in application stores for most popular mobile operation systems (Android and iOS). The most interesting category is "Travel Guides" that combines "Information Resources" and "Location-Based Services" category. Authors propose application "Tourist assistant...
At the time when we are debating the Internet as a human right, an access to basic online information is a challenge for blind and visually impaired community. Steps taken for their digital inclusion, such as, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are often insufficient. In this paper we present initial requirements gathered during three workshops organized with various stakeholders coming...
Internet has evolved and grown tremendously during the last years. We're living the rise of the “self-made” Web Services. On the one hand, this conception reduces the limitations for the creation of new Web Services capable of operating on top of the large Internet technological foundation, while on the other it has some drawbacks such as: slow creation process, long time-to-market, deep knowledge...
This study defines and explores work experience-based constructs influencing IT manager support of remote service innovation. Data from surveys of 808 IT managers in China support the hypothesized model and demonstrate that partnering experience factors impact support attitudes, particularly with regard to the more emergent technology: mobile. Insight from this study can help form better policies...
For social interaction, information of smartphone should be delivered efficiently. In this study, we will use text reading method, user registration method, and time analyzing method to read context of smartphone. Furthermore, we will use teddy bear robot to express proper emotional behavior for given information so that user can intuitively understand the context of information.
The number of mobile devices with Internet connectivity exponentially increases every year. Furthermore, these devices are more and more important not only in business contexts, but also in particular ones. The efficiency of a user performing a task with a mobile device can drastically vary because of its context dependency. Therefore, it is vital to measure the efficiency of the user regarding the...
While the sheer number of mHealth implementations around the world have been increasing dramatically, authoritative voices on global health have tried to put the focus on quantifiable evaluations and comparisons of these projects (e.g. health outcomes, cost savings, efficiency) in order to channel donor funds and investments into proven and scalable solutions. Drawing on empirical data from an mHealth...
Current consumer-level mobile Internet applications involve many potential sources of dissatisfaction. Studying these sources is necessary, especially for newer application areas such as mobile interaction with the real world. This study combined previous studies to form a categorization framework of dissatisfaction sources and gathered qualitative data using critical incident technique and overall...
