Starpplatformu programmatūras izstrādes ietvaru pieeja mobilo lietotņu izveidei
2020
Ņemot vērā viedierīču arvien plašāko izmantošanu planētas iedzīvotāju ikdienā, mobilo lietotņu izstrādes bizness un lietotņu piedāvājums ir milzīgs, tāpēc arvien svarīgs kļūst jautājums par piemērotu tehnoloģiju izvēli lietotņu izveidē. Starp pieejamām tehnoloģijām ir gan tādas, kas ir nostabilizējušās un pastāv gadiem, gan salīdzinoši jaunas un attīstības fāzē esošas. Mobilo lietotņu izstrādātājam atbilstošas tehnoloģijas izvēle var būt nopietns uzdevums, kas potenciāli var novest pie problēmām projektam attīstoties. Darba mērķis ir izpētīt un pārbaudīt pēdējā laikā arvien populārāko starpplatformu ietvaru pieeju mobilo lietotņu izstrādē, īpaši fokusējoties uz jauno tehnoloģiju Flutter, ka…

The previous chapter contained presentations of several relevant collaboration methods. Section 3.1 indicated that the evolution in e-collaboration was associated with a number of technological breakthroughs.
dSDiVN: A Distributed Software-Defined Networking Architecture for Infrastructure-Less Vehicular Networks
2017
In the last few years, the emerging network architecture paradigm of Software-Defined Networking (SDN), has become one of the most important technology to manage large scale networks such as Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs). Recently, several works have shown interest in the use of SDN paradigm in VANETs. SDN brings flexibility, scalability and management facility to current VANETs. However, almost all of proposed Software-Defined VANET (SDVN) architectures are infrastructure-based. This paper will focus on how to enable SDN in infrastructure-less vehicular environments. For this aim, we propose a novel distributed SDN-based architecture for uncovered infrastructure-less vehicular scenari…
Delay-oriented data traffic migration in maritime mobile communication environments
2012
Maritime ship-to-shore communication has to satisfy different user requirements while suffering dynamic communication circumstances. Satellite networks are the primary means to communicate between ship and shore. The idea of compensating the deficiency of satellite communication with other terrestrial networks is not new. However, focus was often on how to keep users always best connected, without considering respective application needs or the potential disconnections. In this paper, we propose a delay-oriented satellite data traffic migration solution, exploiting the route repetitiveness and predictability of ships, leveraging the delay tolerance of many communication applications, with t…
Mobile Encounter Network - the missing data link
2008
In this paper, we discuss about the applicability of a short-range wireless communication scheme called Mobile Encounter Network (MEN). Encounters between devices communicating while moving allows ad-hoc -type data transfer to be performed. A background for the emerging of such networks is given. The essential properties of the MEN data transfer are specified. Based on this, the role of MEN as a data transfer medium is discussed. The conclusion is that such networking technique may provide additional value compared to the traditional wireless communication.
Pricing method as a tool for improved price perception
2006
In the present paper, we have explored pricing methods applied to charging mobile service customers, and the influences of the charging methods on the customers’ price perceptions. The analyses are based on the empirical data collected from Finnish mobile service markets through a quantitative postal survey in 2003. Four hypotheses were tested separately in two customer segments for examining relationship of pricing methods and price perceptions, and the factors affecting to the customers’ pricing method choices. The statistical analyses provided results suggesting that charging methods have a significant effect on customers’ price perceptions. The customers’ price perceptions were found to…
Key Drivers of Mobile Commerce Adoption. An Exploratory Study of Spanish Mobile Users
2007
Despite dramatic differences between non-store shoppers were discovered, very limited research has been conducted to examine them. This paper analyses the background of M-commerce and key drivers of future Mcommerce decision among Spanish mobile users. Our objective is two-fold: (1) to determine the influence of relations with the Mobile (frequency of Mobile use, length of Mobile use and Mobile affinity), demographics, non-store shopping previous experience (mail, catalogue, Television and Internet) and attitude to M-commerce and its influence on the M-commerce decision and (2) to identify key drivers of future M-commerce intention. We examined data from 606 personal interviews given to Spa…
Consumption values and mobile banking services : understanding the urban-rural dichotomy in a developing economy
2021
PurposeThis study develops a theoretical model of consumption values regarding the technology adoption of mobile banking (m-banking) services, with the financial service sector as the empirical context. This study aims to evaluate whether consumption values influence trust and intention. Furthermore, the authors explore how the consumer type (i.e. urban vs rural) differs in consumption values regarding adopting m-banking services.Design/methodology/approachThe data for this study were gathered from 246 responses collected from individuals living in a country with a developing market, using a survey instrument. The six study hypotheses were tested using partial least squares structural equat…
Factors Affecting Mobile Diabetes Monitoring Adoption Among Physicians: Questionnaire Study and Path Model
2012
BackgroundPatients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes often find it difficult to control their blood glucose level on a daily basis because of distance or physical incapacity. With the increase in Internet-enabled smartphone use, this problem can be resolved by adopting a mobile diabetes monitoring system. Most existing studies have focused on patients’ usability perceptions, whereas little attention has been paid to physicians’ intentions to adopt this technology. ObjectiveThe aim of the study was to evaluate the perceptions and user acceptance of mobile diabetes monitoring among Japanese physicians. MethodsA questionnaire survey of physicians was conducted in Japan. The structured questionna…
New TEL Environments for Vocational Education – Teacher’s Instructional Perspective
2015
Modern vocational education is increasingly taking place in new technology-enhanced learning (TEL) settings. On the one hand, vocational education can benefit from the opportunities of technological development. On the other hand, such technologies may create new challenges for teachers. Therefore, there is a particular need to pay more attention to the dialogic pedagogical approaches in which teaching should be seen as a dialogical practice involving teacher-student interactions that create contextual opportunities for teachers to trigger students’ learning in new TEL settings. This article reports on an exploratory study about the different ways in which teachers’ instructional activities…
