Funded Activity Summary
An empirically-derived conceptual framework for designing usable and useful wireless mobile applications. The technological challenges posed by mobile computing devices have taken priority over the issues of appropriate use and usability that will ultimately determine their success in real work environments. This project investigates these issues, particularly the role played by the context of use in the usability and usefulness of mobile applications. The project's aims will be realised through ethnographic studies of mobile work practice, representative use scenarios and the development of an empirically grounded conceptual framework that can guide the design of usable mobile applications. The results will increase the successful utilisation of mobile technology by Australian industries.Funded Activity Details
