Rethinking gender and technology within intersections in the Global South

2019

This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book examines mobile technology use in the Global South through the lens of intersectional understandings of power. It explores the integration of mobile phones in the lives of women from Gishu County in Kenya, and the meanings and symbolism attributed to this technology. The book deals with the material-feminist concept of social reproduction to understand the deepening precarity of the urban poor in Tanzania and their gendered responses to it. It explains the concept of young men’s financial inclusion linked to the proliferation of mobile money in Uganda. The book discusses th…

Design of mobile phones for older adults : An empirical analysis of design guidelines and checklists for feature phones and smartphones

2017

Design guidelines and checklists are suggested as a useful tool in the development and evaluation of interface design of mobile phones for older adults. Given the intense evolution of mobile phone design, understanding how the design guidelines and checklists have taken into account the advances in mobile phone usability for older adults is important for their correct application and future development. Thus, this study explores the usability dimensions of mobile phone design for older adults and the related changes in terms of time and the type of device (feature phones vs. smartphones) based on an expert coding of the eight mobile phone design guidelines and checklists for older adults pu…

The hyperspectral and smartphone technology in CBRNE countermeasures and defence

2016

Caused by industrial and military use as well as other sources of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and high-yield explosive (CBRNE) materials, the global threat of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) remains in spite of such weapons being internationally prohibited. With these materials, industrial and transportation accidents are likely in all countries and can also be triggered by natural disasters, such as in Fukushima in 2011. In addition, governments cannot fully control the manufacturing and usage of WMDs, as extreme terrorists have access to as well as the knowledge and motivation to use such materials. Due to multiple large-scale risks, the countering of CBRNE threats requ…

The axes of the modern age

2020

Adapting to new technologies often is a challenge to the hegemony of the experts mastered in the related older technology. In this editorial, the challenge that the smartphone and social media bring to an older and more prestigious technology—the book—and the literati is discussed. Recent technological changes and the associated social consequences are compared to a classical anthropological study about how the steel ax challenged and succeeded the stone ax but, in the process, changed the power balance and social norms in the Yir Yoront society, a hunter-gatherer aboriginal group in Australia. nonPeerReviewed

Palveluiden saatavuuden parantaminen mobiililaitteille

2012

Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on kehittää kehysmalli, jonka avulla palvelun saatavuutta voidaan parantaa mobiililaitteille. Saatavuuden ongelmana on erilaisten mobii- lilaitteiden määrä, joilla palvelun tulisi toimia. Tutkimuksessa perehdytään palvelun vaati- muksia, selvitetään Suomen mobiililaitejakaumaan sekä tutustutaan mobiililaitteiden rajoi- tuksiin. Lisäksi tutustutaan sisällön adaptoitumisen menetelmiin. Näiden pohjalta valitaan ja rajataan kehysmallissa käytettävät teknologiat. Kehysmalli sisältää arkkitehtuurimallin palvelun toteutukseen sekä menetelmät sisällön adaptoitumiseen. Tutkimuksen kehysmal- lia arvioidaan toteuttamalla palvelu, joka pohjautuu aikaisemmin toteutettuun sovell…

Mobile phones, identity and discursive intimacy

2005

This paper deals with the sociocultural effects of mobile phones in Philippine society. In particular it looks at how mobile phones have affected notions of identity and the rise of the sexual subject. It also deals with the political possibilities and implication of this new communicative technology in a society with previously poorly developed telephonic and other communicative technologies. Mobile phones allow absent subjects to exercise a daily presence in their communities of origin. This absent presence generates virtual subjects interacting primarily via the mobile phone.

Masquerader detection in mobile context based on behaviour and environment monitoring

2007

Mobiilipäätelaitteiden, matkapuhelimien ja kämmentietokoneiden yleistymisen myötä riski näiden laitteiden väärinkäytölle on kasvanut. Matkapuhelimia ja kämmentietokoneita varastetaan ja hukataan koko ajan. Tällöin on mahdollista laitteen päätyminen henkilölle, joka voi käyttää laitetta luvattomasti. Luvattoman käytön estämiseksi on syntynyt tarve turvajärjestelmälle, jonka avulla voidaan varmistaa, että mobiilipäätelaitetta käyttävällä henkilöllä on oikeus laitteen käyttöön.Mazhelis kehitti väitöskirjassaan menetelmää, jonka avulla mobiilipäätelaitteen laillinen käyttäjä erotetaan muista henkilöistä. Tähän pyritään käytön aikaista toimintaa ja toimintaympäristön informaatiota analysoimalla.…
