Mobile Apps for Capturing Geolocation and Customer Data
As progress towards truly ubiquitous or pervasive computing continues to be made, some of the more important emerging technologies that will facilitate this goal are so-called "apps," which are being engineered for a seemingly endless array of utilitarian as well as educational and entertainment purposes. To identify the current state of these technologies, this paper provides an assessment of the effectiveness and efficiency mobile-based applications that provide that ability to capture geolocation data as well as customer data and an evaluation of the potential benefits that can be realized by consumers based on the enhanced ability to gain access to their own data via mobile applications. In addition, an examination of the challenges of developing applications that run on mobile devices because of the small screen size is followed by a description of the methods that can be used to decide which…...

Social interaction and data continue to grow throughout the world. Consumers are now relying more heavily on insights gleamed for mobile apps. These apps, which range from social media to travel, all impact consumers in various ways. Yelp in no different in this regard. As a mobile app predicated on travel, the user interface is critical. Over 1.5 million people have downloaded the application and are actively using for their travel destination needs. Through both quantitative and qualitative research, I have identified aspects within the user interface that can enhance the overall experience of these consumers. My recommendations will rely heavily from the CREAT action funnel to guide the overall user experience

Ethics of Mobile Applications
The modern mobile phone has taken a great leap in a very short span of time from its earliest versions, commonly termed then as cellular phones, which functioned only to make calls, send text messages and save contacts on the mobile device. Today, a mobile phone can be used for numerous purposes such as making calls or video calls, text or picture messaging, surfing the internet, acquiring information about the weather forecasts and the latest news, take pictures or make videos, watch movies and other videos, access emails and chat, play music and games and many more other things.

This huge surge of tasks that can be performed on a simple mobile phone has become possible due to the development of smart phones that can provide access to application softwares. It is these applications that make a user of the mobile phone to be able to perform all…...

IT Project Management Plan for Mobile Application
The business case for adding a mobile application to Fun with Learning's overall strategy is straightforward -- extend the brand, improve competitive standing and reach new customers in innovative ways. Building a website that is optimized for mobile devices has now become an industry standard. However, "m-commerce" or branded mobile applications offer companies improved technological enhancements that extend far beyond marketing and advertising. Fun with Learning can utilize mobile apps to support online purchasing, expand social media connections, create brand loyalty programs, facilitate lead generation, offer portability and create unique value via translation tools and games that broaden the product line for those on the go.

Defining Objectives

Extending commercial reach to existing and new customers via a mobile app will offer Fun with Learning an additional retail channel ("click-and-mortar") poised to expand rapidly over the next few years. It is important that the company define…...

Environmental Analysis
The overall market for software applications for the mobile phone is fragmented. This is mainly due to ease in which applications can be designed and distributed about customers. Many applications do not require large fixed cost investments. In fact, much of the cost of developing a mobile lies within the intellectual capital needed to create it. Much of this intellectual capital, which consists of labor, compensation, and benefits is variable in nature. This variable cost structure makes entry into the market both seamless and unpredictable. If, for example, a software application becomes very successful, the company can easily hire more talent on an "as needed" basis. Likewise if an application losses it usefulness, the company can immediately lay off workers to compensate for the lack of revenue. For example, ovio, the maker of Angry Birds, laid of a third of its workforce this year amid increasing competition from Electronic…...

This report is the first of four parts when it comes to a broader proposal. The proposal is for a mobile application for smartphones and tablets that is going to be called Pocket Chef. That application will allow someone to input various foods that are in the refrigerator or pantry of a homeowner. Those base ingredients are then synthesized and analyzed. The recipes that can be crafted using those ingredients are then supplied to the user. Before getting into more of the specifics of this application such as how it will be crafted, how it will be managed, and how it will otherwise come to exist and function, there will first be a focus on the wider industry in question. The questions that will be answered include when the relevant genre emerged, when the genre started, how useful or “essential” the applications and services are held to be, how large…...

Mobile Information Technology: Insights from Collaborators
I have selected a mobile app that I hope will help in the improvement of patient outcomes in healthcare settings via the further enhancement of care coordination. Thus, I interviewed my Chief Medical Officer (CMO) - Derrick Butler MD; Clinical Medical Director (CMD) - Dr Mann MD; and Assist Medical Director - Nnennaya Omerigbo MD.
The interviewees in this case play diverse roles in my organization. For this reason, there were some unique set of questions tailored for each interviewee, in addition to the common set of questions that sought to provide a general overview of the issues under consideration. The questions I asked are summarized in Appendix 1.

Results

It is important, from the onset, to note that all interviewees underlined the need for collaboration with various stakeholders in the development of the selected mobile app. Stakeholders in this case include, but they are not limited to,…...

Abstract - With regard to security, the major issue is that most mobile devices are targets that are in line to face attacks. Mobile devices face a range of threats that capitalize on several susceptibilities usually obtained in such devices. Lack of encryptions is a major threat to security of mobile device networks. Information such as text messages and electronic messages that are sent using a mobile device are more often than not unencrypted. Furthermore, numerous mobile device applications lack such encryptions over the networks for transmission and reception and therefore simplify the process of data interception. Malware is an additional problem regarding mobile device networks. It is simple for mobile device users to download malware through games and security patches and also through online advertisements. Consequently, this makes it significantly easy for data interception owing to spyware and Trojans. The lack of security software is also a major issue.…...

Technological advancements have increasingly revolutionized H practice, especially in the area of employee orientation and training. Today, mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets can be used to quicken and enliven the process of orientating and training new employees (Lawson, 2015). Mobile devices now come with powerful features that enable easier and more convenient delivery of information to new employees. The information may relate to aspects such as contacts and images of key employees, organizational values and policies, as well as individual roles and responsibilities. Instead of organizing training and orientation sessions or workshops at the organization's board room, this information can be sent to one's email for access during their convenient time and place. Today's mobile devices have applications that support virtually all types of documents, from Microsoft Word and Excel to Portable Document Format (PDF). The appropriateness of incorporating mobile devices in employee orientation and training is…...
