Minitrack Introduction

This minitrack focuses on rapidly changing and evolving issues related to the use of mobile computing technologies for both human-to-human and human-to- machine collaboration. The minitrack intends to provide a forum for reporting the results of research focusing on system and application development and technology usage as well as for the reporting of user adoption, deployment, acceptance, and diffusion. Our goal is to provide a forum for idea exchange between both academicians and practitioners in the computer- based system sciences. As such, the Mobile Technologies and Collaboration minitrack focuses on the conceptual design, implementation, use, and evaluation of mobile computing technologies in controlled, organizational, and broader societal settings.
