Long running applications on resource-constrained mobile devices can lead to software aging, which is a critical impediment to the mobile users due to its pervasive nature. Mobile offloading that migrates computation-intensive parts of applications from mobile devices onto resource-rich cloud servers, is an effective way for enhancing the availability of mobile services as it can postpone or prevent...
Children with learning disabilities require the supervision of special expert teachers during their learning process. The recent years, educational pieces of software for students with dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) were developed. The problem of using such applications is twofold. First, there is no solution for distance supervising those students...
This paper proposed a Wearable ECG (Electrocardiogram, ECG) Healthy Interaction Platform proposal, the platform is based on Social Network. Own designed wearable ECG collecting device was used to collect ECG data, non-sticky fabric electrodes helped to improved the comfort of user experience, and the platform like QQ built the architecture of ECG monitoring, transferring, and diagnosing. The paper...
This article describes the development of the measurement and controlling module that can be controlled through some mobile device (smartphone or tablet) application. The design was influenced by the experiences from the former development and user reactions of similar device that was commercially successful and with good reception. The goal was to create a low-end device that would be also very powerful...
The article describes an online laboratory for a wide range of automated control systems researches with video stream in real time. The online laboratory, based on a DC motor, is an open source, suitable for modern mobile devices and it also does not require additional client software.
Low timeliness of routine HMIS reports has been a major concern in many developing countries. The deployment and use of mobile technology in these countries offers an opportunity to use it to improve timeliness of report sent to the next level. The aim of this study is to assess the use of mobile technology for improving timeliness of reports in one district in Malawi. Data was collected using semi-structured...
Mobile authentication systems for mobile payment often use either the web or mobile channel individually to confirm the identity request of a remote user. Most common activity in mobile commerce is done through mobile phones. The mobile phones are vulnerable to numerous security threats due to involvement of valuable financial and personal information.
The rise of eLabs (remote labs and virtual labs) in which access to hardware is abstracted; the students and the teachers are left with a simulator or software like experimentation. You give this system a set of inputs and then the user gets to see a live feed of the experimentation happening and when it is done the results are delivered to the user. This project aims to design and eventually build...
A recent Pew research center study of mobile device usage revealed that, African American and Latinos are the most active users of the Internet from mobile devices. The study also revealed that minority cell phone owners take advantage of a much greater range of their phone's features compared with people of other ethnicities. At Winston Salem State University (WSSU), it is common for students to...
In this paper, we consider the problem of securing mobile-cloud storage services. We design and develop a novel and secure searchable encryption scheme for mobile devices. In the proposed algorithm, a content based index is constructed and a locality sensitive hashing is used to allow the user to store his files on the cloud in a secure way and then perform a secure query and a fuzzy search. Moreover,...
The paper describes about Implementing a mobile application which can be used for instant payment process for various services like Transportation (e.g. Railway system, Airline system, etc) Utility Payment (e.g. Electricity bill payment system and etc), Hospitality (Restaurants etc). The ultimate thing is, as of now there is no live application for sub-urban train's in any market. We have done a frame...
The mobile payment service is an important and popular service that attracts attentions. Number of mobile users is growing up every day. The users like to have more and more services ready on the wireless networks. Companies try to produce more smart phones while customers buy and use them. More smart phones mean a more proper infrastructure to use 2-dimensional barcodes (2D-barcodes) in mobile payment...
Mobile phone users are being increasingly directed to WEB sites through the identification of the WEB address from a two-dimensional code on the phone. However, incidents where mobile phones direct users to malicious WEB sites are also increasing. The direct lead mechanism, in which mobile phones directly send users to an uninspected WEB address, is the most common mechanism by which users are misdirected...
EHEA guidelines are promoting the modernization of the universities all over Europe, focusing on the implementation of new technologies to get services offered by universities closer to society. With this idea in mind, the Technical University of Cartagena is deeply involved in the development and implementation of the so-called Smart University model: a ubiquitous computing platform based on NFC,...
The Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a reliability engineering tool that is mostly used in the automotive and aeronautical industry, but during the recent years has also been integrated to various fields, such as electronic equipment and software. This paper will present the application of the FMEA methodology for the evaluation of an innovative design for a remote monitoring system. The...
A common assumption for the state-of-the-art methods of protocol testing is that the protocol description is precise, unambiguous and fully determined. Unfortunately, in many practical situations this assumption turns out to be unrealistic. We propose an architecture of a testing framework where different aspects and facets of protocols are separated in a clear manner so that the adaptation of the...
This paper examines geographical bias on social media and develops a geo-local contents system with mobile devices. Because of the maturations of GPS devices and application software, vast amount of people generate various types of contents with geographical information. However, information outside of metropolitan areas seems to be scarce because of population, even though, it is necessary to attract...
A low cost, Cell Phone based system design has been proposed in this paper, which would automatically inform the nearest Police Radio Flying Squad or Traffic Dept. vehicles from a vehicle affected in an accident without the need of any human intervention. The collision detector inside the vehicle would send an update to the Police Control Room Server which in turn would immediately send a ‘SMSOrder’...
this paper briefly describes the development platform and development tools of mobile phone software J2ME, analyzes the inconveniences existing in current road administration and highlights the design philosophy of the mobile phone client-side software, its application in road administration law enforcement and the development prospects.
This paper investigates the quality of geographical information provided by Geo-media, such as Foursquare, and its geographical distribution. According to the result, geographical information described by autonomous individuals contains numerous errors and lacks data, even though it tends to have detailed street addresses. In addition, the information is heavily clustered in metropolitan areas. In...
