Abstract. As mobile devices are getting powerful, reliable, and inexpensive, more and more personal services have been introduced to individuals via their mobile devices. These services enable users to perform a broad range of activities at any time and anywhere. While a lot of research and development effort has been focusing on extending the scope of activities that can be carried out on mobile devices, little attempt has been made to provide process-oriented services. In this paper, we propose a model for specifying and querying personal processes. This model is equipped with a set of operations that allow mobile users to express queries on their personal processes. Answers of these queries will help mobile users in planning their activities while they are on the move. We have designed and implemented a prototyped personal workflow system on Palm Pilot PDA based on the proposed model. Experiences with this implementation are provided.

“…The two last papers described in this section, discusses mobile workflow from two different perspectives. Yoo and Lee [18] provide mobile workflow by making the process instances mobile agents, while Jing et al [7] addresses issues for how to adopt workflow systems to support mobile environments. The former is opposite to our approach because we enables mobility of process fragments, and uses stationary process servers to execute distributed process fragments.…”

Abstract. This paper describes a prototype for supporting distributed, mobile software processes. The prototype allows instantiated process models to be distributed in different workspaces, and have mechanisms to allow parts of the process to be moved from one workspace to another. The paper outlines the main concepts, a process modelling language and tools to support distributed, mobile processes. Further, we discuss problems and possible solutions for our prototype, and some experiments are also outlined. This work has been carried out as a part of a project called CAGIS, described in the introduction of the paper.

“…This more formal form of using CSCW on mobile phones is more suitable in situations where a collection of users automate parts of their collaborative work process -typically a workflow system (Jing et al, 1999). Our framework focuses mainly on support for impromptu collaborative applications, but can also support formal collaboration like planning the next meeting.…”

This chapter describes the Peer2Me mobile peer-to-peer framework, Peer2Me applications, and experiences from using the Peer2Me framework. Peer2Me supports mobile collaboration utilizing Bluetooth and Java ME. The framework runs on standard Java ME-enabled mobile phones and it enables rapid development of various kinds of collaborative peer-to-peer applications. In the chapter we describe some of these applications as well as experiences from implementing these peer-to-peer applications: a file-sharing application, a chat application, a quiz game, a face-to-face meeting scheduler, a real-time game, an automatic business exchange application, and a find the right person application. All these applications have been analysed to discover limitations of the framework, limitations of the technology and the potential usefulness. Finally, the analysis is summarised to give a more complete picture of the potential and the limitations of using Bluetooth and Java ME to implement mobile peer-to-peer applications.
