商品簡介
Computer and information scientists, electrical engineers, and researchers in other technical fields describe the latest offspring of the cross between the Internet and the mobile phone, and predict the next generation ("She has her uncle Mac's color"). They cover theoretical foundations, design approaches, applications and field reports, and new directions. Specific topics include multimodal and multichannel issues in pervasive and ubiquitous computing, platform support for multimodality on mobile devices, two frameworks for the adaptive multimodal presentation of information, exploiting multimodality for intelligent mobile access to pervasive services in cultural heritage sites, and towards multimodal mobile geographical information systems (GIS) for the elderly. References are provided at the end of each chapter, but also compiled into a common bibliography for the whole volume. Annotation c2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
