Ethics in Pervasive Computing Research
TL;DR: The question of ethics in mobile and pervasive computing research extends beyond the research domain, affecting practitioners as well, and Nigel Davies explores this topic in this editorial.
Moving the 'desktop' into the field
TL;DR: This paper reports on the initial findings of the DTI/SERC supported MOST project which aims to produce a pilot system to demonstrate how mixed-media information can be exploited in the field using mobile computers and wide-area radio communications as enabling technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
System support for multimedia applications: an assessment of the state of the art
TL;DR: It is argued that, while significant advances have been made on specific topics such as high performance transport protocols and real-time process scheduling in operating systems, considerable research is still required to produce a complete, integrated solution to the support of distributed multimedia applications.
Mobile-awareness:designing for mobile interactive systems
TL;DR: The argument is that designers should consider the potential benefits of providing users with increased levels of awareness in order to enable the user to deal with the constraints imposed by unreliable and unpredictable network communications.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Supporting walking school buses
TL;DR: This work demonstrates a mobile system that allows parents to visualise real-time predictions of walking bus arrival times and thus supports more flexible travel coordination behaviours, providing greater opportunities for parents to utilise walking bus services and reduce car usage.
