Mobile Computing: Technology And Applications
MOBILE COMPUTING REFERS TO THE COMPUTATIONAL TASKS PERFORMED BY MOBILE USERS USING THEIR HANDSETS. SINCE THE HANDSETS HAVE VERY LIMITED PROCESSING POWER AND MEMORY, THESE DEVICES BY THEMSELVES DO NOT HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO CARRY OUT ANY SIGNIFICANT AND MEANINGFUL COMPUTATIONS AND CAN ONLY SERVE AS THE FRONT-END FOR INVOKING REMOTE APPLICATIONS. MOBILE COMPUTATION, THEREFORE, INEVITABLY INVOLVES THE INVOCATION OF APPLICATIONS RUNNING ON REMOTE SERVERS. IN OTHER WORDS, MOBILE COMPUTATION IS USUALLY ACHIEVED BY THE INTERACTION OF A FRONT-END APPLICATION RUNNING ON THE MOBILE HANDSET WITH A SERVER, SEAMLESSLY, THROUGH THE MEDIUM OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION. THE RAPIDLY EXPANDING TECHNOLOGY OF CELL...

Psychotherapy across distance and time, from Freud’s treatments by mail to crisis hotlines, radio call-ins, chatbots, and Zoom sessions. Therapy has long understood itself as taking place in a room, with two (or more) people engaged in person-to-person conversation.

These have included advice columns, radio broadcasts, crisis hotlines, video, personal computers, and mobile phones; the therapists (broadly defined) can be professional or untrained, strangers or chatbots. In The Distance Cure, Hannah Zeavin proposes a reconfiguration of the traditional therape...
Lead Markets
1. 1 Summary This thesis intends to answer three questions: First, what is a lead market; second, what constitutes a lead market, and third, how companies can harness lead markets to generate global innovations. Considering the international, cross-border diffu sion of innovations one can observe that a particular technological design such as the facsimile machine, the personal computer or the mobile cellular telephone is often adopted by one country or region much earlier than by other countries which subsequently follow this country, which I will call the lead market. A lead market is defined as a country that adopts an innovation that is subsequently adopted worldwide. When different desi...
