Social and Organizational Impacts of Emerging Mobile Devices Evaluating Use [Hardcover]

As mobile devices become increasingly diverse and continue to shrink in size and weight, their portability is enhanced but, unfortunately, their usability tends to suffer.? Ultimately, the usability of mobile technologies determines their future success in terms of end-user acceptance and, thereafter, adoption and social impact.? Widespread acceptance will not, however, be achieved if users' interaction with mobile technology amounts to a negative experience.? Mobile user interfaces need to be designed to meet the functional and sensory needs of users.

Social and Organizational Impacts of Emerging Mobile Devices: Evaluating Use focuses on human-computer interaction related to the innovation and research in the design, evaluation, and use of innovative handheld, mobile, and wearable technologies in order to broaden the overall body of knowledge regarding such issues. It aims to provide an international forum for researchers, educators, and practitioners to advance knowledge and practice in all facets of design and evaluation of human interaction with mobile technologies.
