Abstract:
Purpose This paper relayed an important line of Mark Hepworth’s work, which engages with information technologies and development. The purpose of this paper is to suggest a subfield of library and information science (LIS) for development to reclaim the role of information services and systems for social change in rural areas. The paper looked at the extent of development gained with the advent of mobile phones. Design/methodology/approach Rather than undertaking traditional large-scale, quantitative, context-independent and survey-type research, the paper employed capability approach and semi-structured interviews to ascertain the experiences that mobile phone kiosk vendors in the rural Congo had of mobile phones. Findings It was found that mobile phones should be geared towards the liberation, and not utilization or commodification of humans and their needs and that mobile phones were not a catalyst of human basic capabilities. Research limitations/implications Since the method employed is an in-depth qualitative analysis of mobile phone kiosk vendors, obtained results can be used to enrich or inform mobile phone experiences in other settings and groups. Practical implications This paper provided empirical evidence as to how an important group of mobile phone users could harness development with their mobiles. Originality/value Most LIS literature has presented mobile phones along the lines of information freedom or access, mass subscription, adoption rates, technological and entrepreneurial innovation, micro-credits, etc. However, the paper placed the topic development at the heart of LIS debates.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to share a lecturer’s viewpoint on using mobile phone messaging tools to increase levels of cooperation and collaboration with students and the wider university community. Design/methodology/approach In all, 145 undergraduate students from a Caribbean university were asked how often do they check their mobile phone for text/voice messages per day and when do they turn off their mobile phones. These two questions were asked to understand how engaged students are with their mobile phones. Findings The findings are that students are very engaged with their mobile phones. Students check their mobile phones for text/voice messages multiple times every day. Of the 145 participants in this research, 66.84 % never turned off their mobile phones during the week and carry their phones everywhere, including classrooms. Originality/value This is the first study to examine how often this university’s students’ check their mobile phone for text/voice messages per day and when do they turn off their mobile phones. These findings will help lecturers and university management in understanding students’ engagement with their mobile phone in this university. This study confirms heavy engagement of students with their phones. Lecturers and university administrators can now consider ways in which mobile phone messaging tools can be used to increase levels of communication and collaboration with students and wider university community.

Abstract:
Mobile phones are electronic telecommunication devices that have become a necessary part of life. The advances in technology will directly influence the attitude of the users in the selection of mobile phones. There are multiple criteria that need to be considered in selecting a mobile phone. Therefore, the evaluation and selection of mobile phones is a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) problem. This paper aims to propose a MCDM model to identify the decision criteria’ priority in the mobile phones’ selection using integrated AHP-TOPSIS model. Furthermore, the goal of the study is to find out the most desired mobile phone among Samsung, Apple, Oppo, Huawei, and Vivo. A case study is conducted to determine the priority of decision criteria and mobile phones among the undergraduate students with AHP-TOPSIS model. The results indicate that Apple is the most desired mobile phone, followed by Huawei, Samsung, Oppo, and Vivo. Besides, technical specification and user related features are the most significant decision factors in the mobile phones’ selection. The contribution of the study is to find out the most desired mobile phone and the most significant decision factor in the mobile phones’ selection among undergraduate students with AHP-TOPSIS model.

Abstract:
Utilizing both Assisted GPS (A-GPS) techniques and new high-sensitivity embedded GPS hardware, mobile phones are now able to achieve positioning in harsh environments such as urban canyons and indoor locations where older embedded GPS chips could not. This paper presents an empirical analysis of the positional accuracy of location data gathered using a high-sensitivity GPS-enabled mobile phone. The performance of the mobile phone is compared to that of regular recreational grade GPS receivers. Availability of valid GPS position fixes on the mobile phones tested was consistently close to 100% both outdoors and indoors. During static outdoor testing, positions provided by the mobile phones revealed a median horizontal error of between 5·0 and 8·5 m, substantially larger than those for regular autonomous GPS units by a factor of 2 to 3. Horizontal errors during static indoor testing were larger compared to outdoors, but the difference in accuracy between mobile phones and regular GPS receivers was reduced. Despite the modest performance of A-GPS on mobile phones, testing under various conditions revealed that very large errors are not very common. The maximum horizontal error during outdoor testing never exceeded 30 metres and during indoor testing never exceeded 100 metres. Combined with the relatively consistent availability of valid GPS position fixes under varying conditions, the current study has confirmed the reliability of A-GPS on mobiles phones as a source of location information for a range of different LBS applications.

Abstract:
This qualitative study examines the role of the mobile phone in negotiating the day-to-dayexperience of social immobility for young users in a low-income area in a small town in SouthAfrica. What does the mobile phone become when one is not part of a mobile globalised elite,but poor, unemployed and living on the margins of society in the global south? While researchon mobile phones in developed countries suggest these devices facilitate the creation of asociety free from the confines of local geography and community, where the user can craft anindividualised networked sociability, this may not be the reality in the global south. In our study,mobile phones were seen to amplify a communal sociability where privacy is largely absent fromthe densely contiguous neighbourhood where life happens on the streets for all to see. Thisstudy demonstrates how, in a particular context, mobile phones and the mobile Internet do notnecessarily facilitate a mobile world where individual networks allow an escape from local normsand structures, but may instead facilitate communal networks that bind users to the local and theco-present and so facilitate “stuckness”, a term we use to reflect social immobility and the inabilityto escape the disciplinary surveillance of the co-present.

Abstract:
AbstractComparing ethnographic and interview data in three contrasting production arrangements in a labour-intensive factory in South China, this article argues that while the mobile phone constitutes a new contested terrain on the shop floor and facilitates control and resistance between capital and labour simultaneously, the dynamics of control and resistance is contingent upon the exact arrangements of production. While the management strictly prohibit line operators in the assembly line department from using their mobile phones, they turn a blind eye towards mobile phone use among workers in the hardware department, and mandate mobile workers who are not fixed at work stations in both departments to use mobile phones. Diverse managerial control tactics have generated different patterns of worker resistance. Workers in the assembly line department employ strategies to evade managerial surveillance and continue to use mobile phones at work covertly. They also contest the double standards of mobile phone use displayed by the management. Workers in the hardware department challenge the boundaries of legitimate mobile phone use, and mobile workers use tactics to escape being tracked down by the management via their mobile phones. Mobile phones also facilitate the strategy of resistance through exit among all workers.

Abstract:

Digital cameras in mobile phones have become very popular in the recent years, and it is common to have large photo collections stored in the phone. Organizing these photos on the phone is still a big problem though. This study explores different ways of utilizing the location of where the photos were taken to make it easier to manage a large photo collection. Several different positioning technologies that can be used to obtain the location of where a photo was taken are presented. Three of the application suggestions for using location information of photos were implemented as prototypes on the Android platform. Android is a new platform for mobile phones developed by Google and the Open Handset Alliance, which has been made available as a preview release for developers. A part of this study was to investigate how suitable this platform is for developing location-based software. It was found that it is very suitable, although there still are some bugs and missing features that are expected to be fixed before the final release. The three application prototypes that were implemented were called “From Photo to Map”, “From Map to Photos” and “Who Lives Here?” The “From Photo to Map” application lets the user see a map where the location of a selected photo is visualized with a marker. The “From Map to Photos” application shows a map with markers at all of the locations where the user has taken photos. When one of the markers is selected, the photos taken at that location is shown. The “Who Lives Here?” application lets the user know which of the persons in his contact list that lives where the photo was taken. A small user survey showed that the participants thought all of the applications could be useful, but they were not so sure if they would use them themselves. The survey also showed that most of the users were able to find photos faster when using map-based browsing in the “From Map to Photos” application than when browsing through a photo collection linearly, but several concerns about the implementation details and the use of an emulator make the exact efficiency gain very uncertain.

Abstract:
This research aims at a music piece for audience participation using mobile phones as musical instruments in a music concert setting. Inspired by the ubiquity of smart phones, I attempted to accomplish audience engagement in a music performance by crafting an accessible musical instrument with which audience can be a part of the performance. The research begins by reviewing the related works in two areas, mobile music and audience participation at music performances, builds a charted map of the areas and its intersection to seek an innovation, and defines requisites for a successful audience participation where audience can participate in music making as musicians with their mobile phones. To make accessible audience participation, the concept of a networked multi-user instrument is applied for the system. With the lessons learnt, I developed echobo, a mobile musical instrument application for iOS devices (iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch). With this system, audience can download the app at the concert, play the instrument instantly, interact with other audience members, and contribute to the music by sound generated from their mobile phones. A music piece for echobo and a clarinet was presented in a series of performances and the application was found to work reliably and accomplish audience engagement. The post-survey results indicate that the system was accessible, and helped the audience to connect to the music and other musicians.

Abstract:
This thesis describes the development and evaluation of a data storage colour 2D barcode known as the MMCC barcode. 1D barcodes are widely used to provide inexpensive and accurate data capture capability. However, due to their low data capacity, they can only function as indexes to back-end databases. The desire for higher data capacity has led to the development of colour 2D barcodes. The recent increasingly ubiquitous availability of camera phones has created a new platform to facilitate this data capture. However, it is challenging to decode colour barcodes as the colour values vary greatly under different lighting conditions. In addition, images captured by mobile phone cameras can be blurry, which can cause the cells to be read at the wrong location. As such, it is even harder to accurately decode these barcodes when a mobile phone is used as the capture device. Hence, in order to work with phone cameras, some recent colour barcodes such as ColorCode and Microsoft Tag use a limited number of colours and cells which trades off data capacity for robustness. This type of barcode can still only function as an index, such as a URL pointing to content on the Internet. Index barcodes do not work all the time as network connectivity is not always available. Hence, the MMCC barcode was developed. To the best of the author’s knowledge, this barcode has a data capacity higher than any of the existing barcodes that can reliably work with camera phones. A number of innovative features including random interleaving, reference colours, appropriate selection of the colours used, alignment cells, adaptive use of multiple colour spaces to classify the cells, and RS coding as the FEC are proposed in this research to improve the robustness of the MMCC barcode. Together with RS coding, random interleaving protects the code against clustered errors by distributing codewords randomly across the barcode. Since the communication channels affect the reference colours and the cells in a similar way, classification of the cells based on the reference colours is significantly more accurate than classification based on the original encoded colour values. It is also observed that the colour pairs of Red-Magenta and Blue-Cyan are close to each other during capturing. Hence, to avoid using the colour pairs at the same time, the MMCC barcode uses a selection of colours that are located on the plane of Red, Black, White, Cyan in the RGB colour space. Border and alignment cells can be used to improve the alignment of the barcode and this thesis investigates their effectiveness in improving the capacity and robustness of the colour 2D barcode. The borders tested were found to be ineffective in the context of high data density barcodes. In the MMCC barcode, alignment cells were shown to improve the decoding of the barcode as each cell is more likely to be read at the correct location. The effects of JPEG artifacts are overcome as the centre of each alignment cell is determined using the number of black pixels that are enclosed within a white border. With the same physical area and a similar level of error correction, the MMCC barcode has been shown to achieve twice the data capacity of the QR code, the most common existing 2D barcode. With this increase, more applications, such as the use of an MMCC barcode as a mobile electronic readable business card, can be developed. With suitable further development, it is thought that the MMCC barcode can enable a range of novel mobile data capture applications.

Abstract:
The world population reached 7.5 billion inhabitants in April 2017. The number of mobile phones will reach 4.77 billion by the end of this year. Mobile phones are made of more than 50 elements. Discoveries of economically viable gold mines in the main producing countries have been slowing down significantly since the 1800s. The global surface temperature of the planet is warming at 0.17⁰C per decade relative to pre-industrial levels. The mobile phone was chosen for this thesis because it is a comprehensive unit of hazardous waste and e-waste. Mobile phones are a municipal solid waste and public health concern. The low energy and low barrier to entry recycling business this thesis envisions recycles precious metals from end of life mobile phones close to where the devices are discarded. This thesis uses system dynamics to model the exponential adoption of mobile phones and its impact in mining and CO₂e emissions. The model is the basis to calculate the return of new precious metal recycling businesses. Climate change is one of the hardest problem men has ever faced because it requires many countries to work together to establish climate centric governance and policies. Businesses are reviewing their supply chain and energy sources. This work focuses on disruptive low energy and low barrier to entry technologies to recycle precious metals from mobile phones. Local recycling businesses will create jobs and stimulate the economy in B.C., Canada, and the world.

Abstract:
This research thesis presents a study of mobile-enhanced accessibility evaluation. In the first phase we have identified the evaluation methods that enable evaluation of mobile-enhanced accessibility. In the second phase we have performed evaluation of a specific mobile-enhanced accessibility prototype named “Augment” based on some selected evaluation methods that enables evaluation of mobile-enhanced accessibility. Finding methodologies for accessibility evaluation is just as important as early assessment. Therefore, in the last step on the basis of the evaluation results and literature review findings, we have presented an efficient and usable evaluation method that would enable valid and reliable evaluation of mobile-enhanced accessibility. The name of the presented evaluation method is “AccessEva” that is a diary method supported by a software application, which will run on a smart phone with the mobile-based accessibility software. This enables the testers to survey user attitudes, and experiences about the mobile-enhanced accessibility. At the end of this diary method period we suggest that a group discussion will be introduced and conducted together with the participants under the supervision of evaluators.

Abstract:
AbstractMobile phones have spread rapidly over the last two decades and are now being used even in rural areas of low-income countries, where the poor are concentrated. The number of mobile phone subscriptions per 100 people in the Sub-Saharan Africa region went from 1.7 in 2000 to 82.4 in 2018, meaning that mobile phones have spread to almost all regions and all social classes. The widespread use of mobile phones has made it possible to deliver voice and text information to remote areas at a low cost and has also triggered a variety of services using mobile phones as a platform. Particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa, electronic payment services on mobile phones or ‘mobile money’ rapidly spread and changed people’s lives. This significant change involves not only the urban wealthy but also the rural farmers who previously had little access to financial services. This essay summarizes the findings from the authors’ recent research on the impact of the mobile revolution on the lives of rural residents in developing economies.

Abstract:
In the past few years, the mobile phone’s performance has increased rapidly. According to IDC’s Worldwide Mobile Phone 2004-2008 Forecast and Analysis, sales of 2.5G mobile phones will drive market growth for the next several years, with sales of 3G mobile phones finally surpassing the 100 million annual unit mark in 2007. Future mobile phones can support more than 20,000 colors. With the advancements in functionality and performance of mobile phones, users will use them for all sorts of activities, and that will increase mobile content service requests. Currently, the pricing of mobile content service is up to each provider; typically they implement a fixed price called a market price because the providers do not have a formula to estimate the price according to the actual cost of their services. This article proposes a dynamic pricing model based on net cost for mobile content services.

Abstract:
This study established the opportunities in implementing mobile learning via mobile phones to support English Language learning in Malaysian secondary schools. The findings were gathered from English subject leaders, ICT subject leaders, head teachers and deputy head teachers from 4 schools in the United Kingdom. In addition, the study also gathered the perspectives from English subject leaders, ICT subject leaders, head teachers, deputy head teachers from 9 schools in Malaysia and the officers in the Ministry of Education Malaysia. The study applies educational research and development (ER&D) evaluation methodology by Borg and Gall (1979) with interview as the research tool. It has been established that there are 7 signs of promises to implement mobile learning via mobile phones in Malaysian secondary schools. These are based on the following key points: (1) mobile phones as a viable teaching and learning tool to support English subject, (2) mobile phones as an affordable tool, (3) mobile phones as a common device among students, (4) mobile phones as a tool to be used in mainstream education in the future, (5) mobile phone as an engaging and motivational tool, (6) mobile phones as a tool to support various learning activities and (7) mobile phone as a tool to prepare students for their future. This study contributes towards the body of knowledge of mobile learning in Malaysia as a developing country where mobile learning is still in its infancy. It adds value in understanding the situation of mobile learning in Malaysia, which could be replicated to other developing countries in embracing the potential of mobile learning in mainstream education.

Abstract:
This article proposes and documents a machine-learning framework and tutorial for classifying images using mobile phones. Compared to computers, the performance of deep learning model performance degrades when deployed on a mobile phone and requires a systematic approach to find a model that performs optimally on both computers and mobile phones. By following the proposed pipeline, which consists of various computational tools, simple procedural recipes, and technical considerations, one can bring the power of deep learning medical image classification to mobile devices, potentially unlocking new domains of applications. The pipeline is demonstrated on four different publicly available datasets: COVID X-rays, COVID CT scans, leaves, and colorectal cancer. We used two application development frameworks: TensorFlow Lite (real-time testing) and Flutter (digital image testing) to test the proposed pipeline. We found that transferring deep learning models to a mobile phone is limited by hardware and classification accuracy drops. To address this issue, we proposed this pipeline to find an optimized model for mobile phones. Finally, we discuss additional applications and computational concerns related to deploying deep-learning models on phones, including real-time analysis and image preprocessing. We believe the associated documentation and code can help physicians and medical experts develop medical image classification applications for distribution.

Abstract:
The work presented here describes the selection process of mobile phones with better usability for use in emergency situations in Portugal. In emergency management, communications are a fundamental asset for limiting the consequences of risky situations. Since mobile phones have revolutionized the way people communicate they can constitute an opportunity to be used in information exchange during emergency situations. In this study the mathematical methodology developed by (Jeelani, 2011) - which holistically represents human factors’ issues associated with the use of mobile phone in emergency - was adapted to the Portuguese context. This methodology allows the rating of mobile phones in terms of suitability for use in emergency situations, having the satisfaction of user needs as a main priority. The methodology used in this study comprehends three phases: identification of the more important features of mobile phones for use in emergency situations; determination of the selection factors relative importance, using Analytic Hierarchy Process; and usability testing of five mobile phones using Cognitive Walkthrough protocol, with 20 individuals.

Abstract:
Since starting to launch the autonomous driving vehicle service to the public, customer experience has also emerged as an important factor for the services. Beyond simply considering the interaction between users and machines, this study seeks to simultaneously study another element that cannot be ruled out., with the aim of providing a satisfactory experience for the customer in terms of service. Self-driving taxis are a new service, but users will expect a continuous experience based on the experience they have learned from similar services. The existing similar experience is based on three services or technologies: shared vehicle service, on-call taxi service, and semi-autonomous driving experience. One touchpoint that cannot be ruled out from these three previous experiences is the link to the mobile phone. Customers who experience cutting-edge technology are all power users of mobile phones and shared vehicle services and on-call taxi services are based on mobile phone applications and location information. Most drivers carry mobile phones while driving, connect mobile phones with vehicles, and obtain information and content from them. This study aims at natural UI linkage between mobile phones and self-driving cars for superior customer experience.2. Research Methods The study includes three main steps; first, interview and observe iOS and Android users. Each user's observations detail the user's journey from vehicle entry to departure and organize the features. At this time, the main goal of the analysis is to separate only the user's journey, which is equivalent to an autonomous driving scenario, and to check which content subjects are mainly used by iOS' CarPlay services and Android Auto. Experiment with two major mobile phone platform users to avoid being biased toward a specific mobile phone platform.The second step is to experiment with fast and dirty prototyping techniques. The previous analysis defines and embodies the user's journey to the future automotive experience. The subjects experience this prototyping as it is and analyze the process. Intensive research has been conducted into the subject's mobile phone interworking process, but this part is not specified directly to the subject. This is to make sure that users naturally expect to connect to their mobile phones. It is analyzed what subjects who are familiar with the existing user experience of cars and mobile phones expect and expect from self-driving vehicles.The final stage is co-creation. Its goal is to create an interface that will satisfy customers regarding situations in which mobile phones and vehicle systems are linked by predicting their experiences. Assuming that the subject is connected to a terminal and a self-driving car, it writes the contents of the vehicle system directly. Based on the results of this process, we will derive a UI that will satisfy the users.3. Results The experiment was conducted on users who were familiar with driving cars and using mobile phones. To increase the likelihood of accepting future technologies, limit subjects to those familiar with existing experiences.The first test was able to analyze the experience of cars linked to mobile phones. Subjects naturally accept and use mobile phones as an integral part of their car-related experiences.In the second experiment, we were able to analyze the initial feelings of users related to autonomous vehicles. The subjects had a vague sense of uneasiness about cutting-edge technology that they had yet to experience in real life. Under these circumstances, they wanted to get additional information from their mobile phones and offset their anxiety.The third experiment resulted in the user experience that current drivers hoped for in future cars. In the context of the vehicle's software system interworking with the mobile phone, what factors users value was identified and the rules of customer experience focused on these factors were derived.4. Conclusions This paper aimed to make sure that users naturally expect mobile phone links in future car situations and to suggest optimized interfaces when linking mobile phones. This is not just a definition of a machine-to-person interface, but a basic study to design the customer experience in terms of the future automotive service industry.Subjects were found to expect future services based on similar existing experiences, and anxiety about the technology of autonomous driving was also found in common. On the service side, subjects reacted sensitively to the processing of personal information in shared vehicle situations. The study has an academic implication that it has drawn a major direction in how mobile communication devices, the most cutting-edge technology for current users, should be linked to self-driving vehicles, the most advanced technology in the future.

Abstract:
In this paper we demonstrate the use of a particular source of ICT data, Mobile phones, generated and provided by a mobile phone service provider, to help validate an integrated land use transportation (LUT) model calibrated for the Lisbon, Portugal, metropolitan area (hereafter LMA). Specifically, we use 1 month of anonymous data provided by a private cell phone network operator. These data allowed us to identify, for each phone, all phone activity, localized to the nearest cellular telephone tower (601 towers in LMA). We use the cellular phone towers to generate analysis zones consistent with existing statistical and administrative boundaries (i.e., census blocks and civil parishes). We also infer, for each cell phone tower analysis zone, the number of phones that “reside” and/or “work” in that zone, based on the phone activity profile generated over the observed month.

Abstract:
Failure to attend healthcare appointments impacts on patient health and health system costs. Sending patients appointment reminders using mobile phone text messages (Short Message Service (SMS) and Multimedia Message Service (MMS)) could improve attendance compared to no reminders, or other types of reminders, such as postal or phone call reminders. The broad penetration of mobile phones in several low-income countries makes this intervention particularly promising.
