High-end graphics processing units (GPUs), such as NVIDIA Fermi/Tesla series cards, are widely applied to the high performance computing fields in a decade. NVIDIA releases Tegra K1, called Jetson TK1, which contains 4 ARM Cortex-A15 CPUs and 192 CUDA cores (Kepler GPU) is an embedded board with low cost, low power consumption, and high applicability advantages for several specific applications. In...
Classified advertisements are moving to push their services to the mobile application due to a wide base of users. The potential challenge for this type of service in the data exchange model due to the enormous amount of information transferred to the mobile client in an asynchronous fashion. In this paper two data exchange methods are compared; XML and JSON. JSON outperforms in term of data size...
In the course of the last few years crowd sourcing has received growing research focus due to its conception of solving complex tasks with the help of a flexible group of contributors of whom each needs to only contribute a simpler task part. Hence, the crowd can contribute by collecting data from distributed locations, completing map information, or voting on product ideas, et cetera. However, even...
Initially, MetaXA (Metadata-processing XMPP-based Architecture) was targeted towards notification distribution and device theft detection. However, since MetaXA is extensible, it can be adapted to many other usage scenarios in the mobile computing domain. For example, in this paper, we demonstrate how to use MetaXA for mobile application management (MAM), without exhausting the battery power of mobile...
Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) and Crowdsourcing are kinds of acquisition modes of geographic information, as well as information production and dissemination way with the development of information technology applications. In this paper, on the basis of analyzing application of VGI and crowdsourcing modes on disaster information management system, the disaster information management system...
A cross-terminal web system refers to a web system which can be accessed through various terminal platforms, including the web browsers on personal computers, the mobile applications on smart phones and so on. Traditional design of such a system usually uses XML data format and RPCful web services. There are some issues lying in this design such as the low efficiency of data exchange, the complex...
With network developing and virtualization rising, more and more indoor environment (POIs) such as cafe, library, office, even bus and subway can provide plenty of bandwidth and computing resources. Meanwhile many people daily spending much time in them are still suffering from the mobile device with limited resources. This situation implies a novel local cloud computing paradigm in which mobile device...
With the internet's influence, an obvious trend can be seen that digital TV industry will embrace multi-screen and IP-based technology. Due to Chinese specific political environment, how to make sure the TV's contents controllable has become a key problem when the contents are accepted by more and more non-TV terminals like Android phones. In this paper, we focus on digital home network environment...
In this paper, we propose a novel integrated API service system as well as a Web API script to enable mobile mashup application developers to invoke Web APIs in a consistent way, and provide a consistent format for the responses of Web APIs, thereby relieving developers of striving to study the usage of various Web APIs.
This paper presents an HTML5 mobile test (mTest) application for use in an agent-based mobile eLearning (mLearning) system. The application was developed based on the Sencha Touch framework. The mTest application receives XML data from a personal assistant agent on the client side and can work in different mobile operating system environments, such as iOS, Android, BlackBerry, Windows Phone, etc....
With the development of Mobile Internet, more and more people read news through Native App on their mobile equipment. The shortage of Native App news client is that it can't assemble news from different sources. This paper presented mobile application named "Financial News", which is built based on Yahoo Query Language. It combines top financial news from several popular news websites. Built...
This paper presents the architecture of Maritaca, a cloud infrastructure for mobile data collection. The system allows the user create mobile Apps for data gathering using simple interfaces, no programming skill is needed. The platform collects conventional data and, in addition, allows to collect multimedia, location information, sketches, barcodes, etc. The collected data can be shared, allowing...
This study designed an Android mobile platform to serve as a connection center for peripheral and personal health record servers, combining the frameworks of mobile health management and wireless body area networks (WBAN). The client and the healthcare server employ CCR (Continuity of Care Record) as the standard data exchange format, allowing it to work interoperability among various health information...
Public health surveillance is the ongoing systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of health-related data. It serves as an early warning system for impending public health emergencies. This paper presents an efficient framework for automated acquisition and storage of medical data using the infrastructure provided by Short Message Service (SMS). The data to be collected are dynamically organized...
We propose the concept of cooperative sidewalk supporting system that manages sensory information from mobile terminals and personal mobility. This system provides the service which extracts and offers useful information, including the condition of the sidewalks to a user, or to a governmental agency. The technology of gathering the information about sidewalks efficiently from the sensor through the...
Presence is one promising value-added service that enriches traditional telecom services and is well accepted in the Web environment. It is also an essential part of Next Generation Networks. The presence service runs on top of SIP and therefore causes a lot of traffic and processing overhead. Furthermore, presence service suffers under scaling issues and the traffic caused by presence is supposed...
this project is a proposal, based on innovative Bluetooth Marketing Services, whose main objective is to facilitate the dissemination of information via Bluetooth in tourist-commercial sectors. This proposal is supported by the analysis, design and construction of a software application resulting from the abstraction of previous analysis and design of a directory-based service.
The current growth of mobile devices enabled with GPS receptors, cameras, accelerometers, and Internet access offers new opportunities for new mobile ubiquitous multimedia applications. Such applications help local communities to share resources using geo-location, interactive mapping, augmented reality, and several data representations. This paper presents CityEvents, a mobile solution that provides...
Developing collaborative mobile applications is a tedious and error-prone task, as collaboration functionality often has do be developed from scratch. To ease this process, we propose WatchMyPhone, a developer toolkit being focused on the creation of collaborative applications on mobile devices, especially sharing user interface components like text views in a multi-user setting. We provide an implementation...
