The convergence of Wi-Fi technologies and mobile devices present prospects to design and implement applications that will support learning on the move. Mobile learning (m-learning) is the study and practice of using mobile devices, such as smart phones, mobile phones, tablets, PDAs, MP3s and pocket PCs to support learning for anyone, anytime and anywhere. Through well-situated and flexible mobile...
We explore the research resonance concept in the context of the Information Systems (IS) design science research (DSR) literature. Resonance is a concept that complements research rigor and relevance and addresses how researchers can effectively communicate research outcomes to suitable audiences and, thus, achieve practical impact. We operationalize the resonance concept for the IS DSR context and...
Traditional meters present both the users and utilities providers with various challenges in developing countries. For instance utility providers must get access to their users' premises to be able to read these meters or check fraudulent connections. Users on the other hand have to wait for months or more before knowing their utility consumptions or join long queues to purchase credit for the post-payment...
This paper proposes a conceptual framework, motivated by personas and composed of certain interrelated artifacts, to provide a better support for the goals included in the contents of structured user story statements.
Existing approaches to tool integration based upon metamodels encounter the problem that common (integration) metamodels become too large and complicated, due to the large number of different tools that have to be integrated, each with their specific metamodel defining models handled by each tool. The approach taken here is radically different in that it distinguishes between the model for integration...

Mechanisms for the definition and communication of this metadata, and for its automatic incorporation in software interfaces and artifacts, already exist. However, there is as yet no well-understood mechanism the establishment and maintenance of an agreed...
