Abstract
This paper explains that Motorola was the first telecommunications manufacturer to design, manufacture and market a fully mobile wireless phone, which has allowed Motorola to maintain its presence in the wireless market in spite of increased competition and cost. The author points out that Motorola consistently has been expanding the functionality of its handsets because cell phones are being asked to transmit data beyond their original intension. The paper also stresses that, while Motorola has been extremely successful, it increasingly should be wary of the contemporary business environment in which technology cycles are becoming much shorter. The author underscores that this shorter development cycle allows smaller, more agile companies, such as RIM's Blackberry device, to come to market with disruptive technologies.

From the Paper
"The wireless industry has been experiencing phenomenal success and market acceptance for the past several years. Smith states that the top five U.S. carriers had a combined 150.9 million subscribers with over 24 million net new subscribers and Motorola has been adept at entering into handset contracts with all of these wireless carriers (Smith 12). The largest previous record for new subscriber additions was in 2000 with 21 million net new subscribers (Smith 12). Wireless technology is gaining extremely broad exposure in the market for several reasons; not the least of which is reception quality improvements as carrier infrastructure improves and handset technologies continue to become better integrated with carrier networks. With the emergence of data access (web, music, text messaging) and cost-benefit advantages, many more people are opting to utilize their wireless plan as well as their mobile handsets as the sole telephonic access for a household: "...it al

Abstract
Mobile payment is paying for goods or services with a mobile device such as a phone, Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), or other such device. They can be used in a variety of payment scenarios. Typical usage entails the user electing to make a mobile payment, being connected to a server via the mobile device to perform authentication and authorization and subsequently being presented with confirmation of the completed transaction. The paper focuses on Secure Mobile Payment Service (SEMOPS), a project for developing a secure, universal electronic payment service, which allows real time payment transactions independently of the type and value of the purchase.
From the Paper
"The service concept follows a whole new approach in electronic commerce, as it is built on the credit push concept. Having selected the required goods the customer receives certain transaction related data from the merchant. Customers do not provide any sensitive data to the merchant during the payment process; therefore they can practically remain anonymous. Having received the necessary transaction details, the customer prepares and signs a payment request and forwards it to his or her own payment processor. If the necessary funds are available, the merchant receives a payment notification, which is a kind of guarantee from its own payment processor."

"The field of Telecommunications can be described as a science and a technology (Kleiner and Polak, 2001). The science it particular describes is the science of communication over distances of electronic waves (Kleiner and Polak, 2001). Telecommunication can occur through cables and telephones, through radio or televisions (Kleiner and Polak, 2001). The telecommunications industry is ever changing, described best by fierce competition and state of the art technology (Kleiner and Polak, 2001)."

"No technological development is possible without effect upon society. Thanks to the developments in technology taking place since the end of the 20th century, we have moved towards an emerging society defined as ?the information society?. As can be clearly understood from its name, information has become a significant factor for the development of society. Yoneji Masuda, who discussed ?Information villages? as the social system of the future in 1971, is regarded as an early proponent of information society concept."

Abstract
This paper discusses the many industries that have already adopted the mobile worker model and the new technology that has facilitated the development of mobile offices and fully mobile workers, particularly in the finance and IT sectors. It mentions the benefits mobility has for the worker, such as personal freedom, industry/knowledge relevance and schedule flexibility. If the mobile worker's productivity can be effectively managed by the use of communication devices and an organizational culture of accountability, the mobile worker can be just as effective at his or her job as the traditional office employee.

Abstract
This paper describes the problems the Mobile Oil Lubricants Division was experiencing with its previous information system that motivated Mobile into updating the system. The paper then describes the two failed attempts to update the division's information system, the reasons for those failures and what was done to finally install a successful information system on the third try.
From the Paper
"The evolution beginning in 1995 from the "old fashioned," burdensome hands on order processing of Mobil Oil Lubricants Division took three tries and refinements to finally accomplish. There was a generous proportion of "wheel spinning," before they finally got the EDI systems where they needed them to be."

The Diffusion of Mobile Service Platforms, 2003.
Examines why Finnish consumers buy mobile phones.
3,512 words (approx. 14.0 pages), 23 sources, MLA, £ 68.95

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The future of mobile telephony is closely linked to services. Users are required to purchase new phones with new technical features for the large-scale diffusion of service platforms and the adoption of increasingly advanced services. The survey in this paper indicates, however, that services are not such an important reason for consumer purchases of new mobile phones. In this paper, the authors have chosen a different approach, in which they look at the reasons consumers have bought their recent mobile phones in Finland. Instead of relying on the hopes and expectations of the future, they focus on individual consumer interpretations of past behavior. The paper, first, briefly describes the peculiarities of the Finnish mobile market.Then it looks at how the survey was carried out and what kinds of results were obtained. Finally it discusses the relevance of the results for the evolution of mobile services. The paper includes tables.

From the Paper
"The visions of mobile telephony are closely linked to services, gaming, multimedia and mCommerce. For the large scale diffusion of these innovations and applications, users are required to purchase new phones with new features (Kalakota & Robinson 2002, Lindmark 2002). GPRS, Java and Symbian applications are new parts of the contemporary infrastructure in Europe, but even this infrastructure is going to evolve rapidly in the near future. This means that a user with a phone bought today is not likely to be able to take full advantage of the state-of-the-art mobile features and services a few years from now. Correspondingly, the new features and services will not be commercially successful if only few consumers purchase appropriate phones."

Abstract
This informative paper discusses the pros and cons to the recent approach in employment known as the freelancer or mobile worker. Among the advantages of being mobile is the flexibility and freedom offered versus being tied down to a formal office. Freelance and mobile workers are viewed as more projects oriented and flexible enough to fit into almost any situation employers can imagine. This paper explores the cost saving elements in outsourcing which is in fact more profitable, resulting in savings that are passed on to the consumer. This paper also describes the staffing process for mobile workers, which is a simple plan of screening applicants from various sources, as well as the pitfalls to avoid.
Topics covered in this report include:

From the Paper
"Among the advantages of being, mobile or working from an undefined location is the freedom being offered versus the tied down to a formal office, sales or various other locations. By this, it means that the "Mobile Worker," quite often works from either their homes or their vehicles and more often than not some combination of the two. Furthermore, this freedom has great assets to offer the worker where it comes to having time to spend with family at critical junctures in their daily lives. This one advantage alone for many makes this form of working the career path of choice and the workforce in this area is growing exponentially monthly consequently."

Mobile Phone Users, 2005.
A small observational study of mobile phone users.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This study focuses upon observations of mobile phone use and the ways in which users employ their mobile phones while socially involved in a group or pair. The controversial technological determinist Marshall McLuhan claimed that ?all media work us over completely? (McLuhan, 2001:26). The aim of this paper is to investigate to what extent this is true with regard to the mobile phone and to look at how users select calls when in the presence of others using the affordances and constraints of the technology. The degree to which the mobile phone became a part of the social context and in particular the way in which participants in a group or pair responded to the interruption of a mobile phone conversation is the central focus of the study.
From the Paper
"To help analyse the observations it is important that we have an understanding of the different identities involved in a telephone conversation and their role in progression. The terms used by most academics when analysing data are that of the ?caller?, ?answerer? and ?called?. Hutchby considers the answerer of the telephone call at a disadvantage. In Conversation and Technology he notes ?the caller knows who they are trying to call, and why they are doing so? the answerer knows nothing on either count? (Hutchby, 2001: 111). Whilst I support this model, I would like to propose that the extent to which this concept is true has changed with the invention of the mobile phone. The possibility to monitor then selectively answer or reject incoming calls by using the caller identification function featured on most mobile phones has changed the traditional role of answerer."

From the Paper
"For the need of healthcare industry, care providers have been implementing mobile health care projects, which provide inherent mobile workflow of the clinical environment, an absolute must for physician adoption and usage of any technology. Wireless mobile technology is definitely headed towards success in the healthcare industry owing to the technologies and benefits provided above. But we need to realize that organizational and cultural issues except for technology itself at the same time. For example, there are many articles describing the successful implementation of wireless technology in clinics and hospitals nationwide, some of them have been explored in this paper; however, there is also lack of studies measuring the Return on Investment (ROI) of implementing wireless mobile solution in healthcare. The few that exist have been conducted by the vendors of the wireless technology themselves and are likely to be biased on the positive side for obvious reason. Thus more researches and studies need to be conducted and more evidence needs to be gathered about the impact of wireless systems in healthcare."
