“…In his description of the QuickStep platform [12], Jörg Roth described a sample application that facilitated scheduling meetings by showing each user the others' calendars. While a participant would see each user's calendar and when they were unavailable, the labels that showed the reason for the unavailability were removed.…”

“…Litiu and Prakash [17] developed DACIA, a mobile component framework that supports the development of adaptive collaborative applications. Roth and Unger [18] developed QuickStep, a platform for the development of synchronous groupware applications for handheld devices. Myers [19] developed Pebbles, a project that allows the use of PCs and handhelds together.…”

MADEE (Mobile Application Development and Execution Environment) is a platform that supports the development of small and middle size mobile and wireless information systems for handheld devices. MADEE allows a student to develop applications faster and easier than using conventional development tools. This study presents the results and experience obtained using MADEE to support the introduction of mobile and wireless information systems development concepts in the context of computer engineering courses
“…However, these networks have a limited bandwidth. Another option is to provide synchronous communication capabilities to mobile applications using a Wi-Fi communication infrastructure (Roth and Claus Unger 2001;Kortuem et al 2001). Although the bandwidth is better than cellular networks, Wi-Fi signal stability depends on the physical environment where it is deployed (Aldunate et al 2005).…”
Collaboration supported by mobile devices has brought advantages for users and also challenges for software developers and mobile computing devices manufacturers. Every kind of device used to support mobile collaboration has strengths and weaknesses depending on the work context where it is used. The idea is to use a specific device when advantages are most relevant and disadvantages do not affect team work. This paper proposes an evaluation framework that helps developers to identify the type of device that can be used to support mobile collaboration in specific work contexts. In addition, three mobile collaborative applications are analyzed using the evaluation framework. The results of the analysis are then compared with the empirically observed suitability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
