This study is a process evaluation-based case study of the Universal App Program (UAP), a global disaster preparedness smartphone application program developed and managed by the Global Disaster Preparedness Center (GDPC). The rise of disaster risks worldwide and the rapid parallel adoption of mobile technology have created opportunities to empower communities to prepare and respond more effectively to disasters. The deployment of ICTs in the humanitarian sphere requires focused research to best understand how these opportunities can be harnessed more effectively. This study explores, describes, and analyzes the phases of design, delivery, and initial receipt of apps developed with the International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement. It study also explores and describes the strategies, implementation and outcomes of these processes, focusing on the perspectives of the various actors working with and on the apps throughout these processes and at each site. The goal is to understand how these apps are conceived and planned, what contextual factors are significant, and within what organizational and country context, and under what assumptions, how the apps are adapted for the needs and contexts of each country involved and its citizenry, and what challenges are faced, with emphasis on the design and delivery phases. The study is both descriptive and prescriptive, utilizing methods of qualitative data collection, primarily in the form of questionnaires, interviews, and document reviews, with the support of some basic quantitative data analysis. The primary findings of this study show that there is a great deal of fidelity between the GDPC’s design of the UAP and that the demand-driven, shared responsibility model of the program has been key to its sustainability. Program designers were successful in incorporating key aspects of ICT4D best practice into the components of the program. Contextual factors, in particular the UAP situated within the GDPC and aligning with the International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement has been a key underlying factor for program development and success, as it enabled GDPC to build on the experiences and apps of the British Red Cross and American Red Cross and uniquely connect and support national societies participating in the UAP.

▼ Today, smartphones have become an important part of our day to day life. Every day, practically every one of us wakes up in the morning hearing the sound of an alarm coming from our smartphone. First thing in the morning, we see the LED flashing on the phone and we have the urge to check all the notifications we got during the night. We unplug our phone from the charger. We read some notifications, we ignore some, we reply to some. Finally, we get out of the bed. We use it all day for everything: replying to emails, text messages and social networking. Finally, we go to bed, plug it back into the charger cable. We touch it until our eyelids close for the night's sleep. We have this routine usage of our smartphone almost every day. Every user uses his/her phone in his/her own way. Not all the people are the same. Not all the people have the same routine of life. But our smartphone is not really smart enough to learn our routine and adapt to us. Our smartphone does not understand our needs. Either it just performs on its own or it performs only after we ask. There is a lot of areas that need automatic adaptation. Smartphones are the devices that perform tasks equal to a laptop or a desktop machine but with limited resources like battery, memory, screen size, etc. Unlike laptop users, smartphone users do not carry chargers with them all the time. Considering smartphone's limited battery as a serious concern, the battery would be the main area that needs automatic adaptation. Smartphones should know the user's recharge cycle and use the available energy efficiently by spending when it is in excess and reserving when it is in shortage. Computation complexity has been doubling every couple of years. But, the battery capacity has been doubling every 10 years. So, it is our responsibility to use the energy efficiently without a compromise in user experience. We propose ENDLESS (Energy Distribution Through Lifetime Estimation and Smartphone Usage Patterns) to determine if energy is to be saved for future use or if it can be consumed for present use according to the estimations of the next recharge time, applications and services that might be used in the near future and how much battery would be needed.

▼ Mobile phones have formed a social network within the phone subscriber population by allowing the phone subscribers to exchange information. Nowadays, smartphones have been improved with a variety of functionalities, such as a built-in cameras, motion sensors, and Wi-Fi wireless connectivity to enable the phone subscriber to take photographs of a desired object for distribution to other users through SMS or email. These functionalities make the mobile phones the perfect tool in terms of viral marketing within cellular phone subscribers. This thesis proposes a novel methodology that allows the phone subscriber to perform gestures for image acquisition from public signage displays. The public display is signage which displays a list of images in chronological order. The signage distributes the image list to nearby phones in the form of datagrams by means of multi-casts. Additionally, Wi-Fi connection between the phone and the signage must be established to enable multi-cast. When the phone has the completed image list downloaded, the phone subscriber can point the phone at the signage and perform a dragging gesture once he sees the desired image displayed by the signage. The current state of the project has concluded the development of the application to achieve the aforementioned task. However, the development of data transmission from one phone to another is still ongoing. Further development in the future would enable another gesture for data distribution to other phones in the vicinity. Web-based administration applications have also been developed to manage the image list in the signage. Through this web-based application, the administrator can generate new image list and then upload it to a FTP server. When the updated image list is stored in a remote FTP server, the signage periodically retrieves the image list from the FTP server. After the signage has received the updated image list, it then distributes the image list in the form of datagrams by means of multicasts. In summary, this thesis documents the impact of such technology in viral marketing research.

▼ LTE MIMO frame antennas for the metal-casing smartphone are presented. The first design includes six antennas (Ant1 to Ant6) and is for the LTE/WLAN MIMO operation. All the antennas are disposed at the short edges of the smartphone. Ant1, Ant2, and Ant5 are disposed at the top edge of the smartphone. Ant1 provides LTE operation in 824~960/1710~2690 MHz. Ant2 covers 1710~2690 MHz for the LTE operation and 1575~1610 MHz for the GPS operation. Ant5 provides WLAN operation. Ant3, Ant4 and Ant6 are disposed at the bottom edge of the smartphone. Ant3, Ant4 and Ant6 follow the design rule of Ant1, Ant2 and Ant5, but Ant4 does not cover the GPS operation band. Ant1 and Ant3 can be applied in 2 Ã 2 LTE MIMO operation in 824~960 MHz. Ant1, Ant2, Ant3 and Ant4 can be applied in 4 Ã 4 LTE MIMO operation in 1710~2690 MHz. Ant5 and Ant6 can be applied in 2 Ã 2 WLAN MIMO operation. However, it is found that the isolation and ECCs of the 4 Ã 4 LTE MIMO operation in 1710~2690 MHz need to be improved. To solve this coupling issue in the MIMO antennas design, a second design is devised. Two self-decoupled LTE MIMO Antennas are proposed. The first antenna covers 880~960 MHz in the low band and 1710~2690 MHz in the high band. The second antenna covers 1710~2690 MHz in the high band. The second antenna is an inverted-F antenna (IFA) using a frame section along the short edge of the metal casing as the IFAâs radiation strip. The frame section is gap-coupled to a feed network and also short-circuited to the system ground plane at a position between the two antennas. In this case, the excited surface currents on the ground plane will be directed to the frame section of the second antenna, without entering into the feed ports of the antennas. The coupling between two antennas can thereby be greatly decreased and good independent radiation patterns of the two antennas can be obtained. Therefore, isolation and ECCs for the 2 Ã 2 LTE MIMO operation can be improved. Moreover, two additional antennas of the same can also be disposed at the opposite short edge to achieve a much higher channel capacity for the 4 Ã 4 LTE MIMO operation.

▼ Connected Vehicle (CV) technology aims to improve transportation management and system performance by incorporating advanced detection and communication system such as Global Positioning System (GPS), and smart devices to make roads and vehicles better equipped to exchange important information regarding road and travel conditions. GPS have emerged as the leading technology to provide location information to various location based services. With an increasing smartphone penetration rate, as well as expanding spatial and network coverage, the idea of combining GPS positioning functions with smartphone platforms to perform GPS-enabled smartphone-based traffic management and data monitoring is promising. This study presents a field experiment conducted along Whitemud Drive (a section of Connected Vehicle Test Bed in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada), Queen Elizabeth Highway, and various urban arterial roadways using a GPS-enabled smartphone, cellular positioning technique, professional GPS handset and combination of smartphone and Geofence. The relative positioning errors and the data collection performances using the aforementioned technologies were evaluated and compared. The characteristics and the relationships between the positioning errors and traffic related factors are investigated using regression analysis. The results indicate that GPS-enabled smartphones are capable of correctly positioning 92% of the roadway segments to Google Earth, while achieving accuracy of less than 10 meters for 95% of the data. Using a cellular positioning technique, cell-IDs were correctly identified in repeatable trials with accuracy levels much lower than the smartphone-GPS positioning. Using combination of smartphone positioning and Geofence are promising in finding accurate positions and timestamps. In all scenarios, the use of four data source for obtaining location and traffic condition is feasible; and particularly, using GPS-enabled smartphones and/or its combination with Geofences can provide good accuracy level for location and traffic state parameter estimates.

▼ Background Delirium is an acute neuropsychiatric syndrome characterised by the rapid onset of severe and fluctuating disturbances in attention, arousal and cognition. Delirium is associated with a range of adverse outcomes; however, it goes undetected in up to 75% of cases. A light-counting task implemented on a custom-built computerised device entitled the Edinburgh Delirium Test Box (EDTB) has recently been validated as an objective screening tool for detecting inattention in delirium. Although the EDTB task is effective, tests contained on readily available devices have the potential for far greater impact. The current study evaluated the feasibility and validity of a smartphone adaptation of the EDTB known as the DelApp. Methods Hospital in-patients aged 60–96 were recruited for three groups: (1) patients with no delirium or known cognitive impairment (n=54); (2) patients with dementia but no current delirium (n=52); and (3) patients with delirium (n=50). Total DelApp score comprises an arousal scale and a light-counting task capturing sustained attention deficits in delirium. Additional tests included: conventional tests of inattention, the Short Orientation-Memory-Concentration test, the Delirium Rating Scale–Revised-98, the Confusion Assessment Method and the Observational Scale of Level of Arousal. Results Delirium patients (mdn=6, IQR=4-7) performed significantly worse than those with dementia (mdn=10, IQR=9-10; p<.001, r=.76) and controls (mdn=10, IQR=10-10; p<.001, r=.88). DelApp scores also correlated with symptom severity (τ =-.57, p<.001). General cognitive impairment did not differ between the delirium and dementia groups and therefore could not account for sustained attention deficits. Receiver operating characteristic analysis indicated that the DelApp was 98% sensitive and 93% specific to delirium. Discussion These results, like those of the EDTB, highlight the utility of the objective assessment of attention to identify delirium and differentiate it from dementia. The DelApp could be cheaply and easily distributed among healthcare professionals and has promising utility in clinical and research settings.

▼ With advances in microelectronic and wireless communication technologies, smartphones have computer-like capabilities in terms of computing power and communication bandwidth. They allow users to use advanced applications that used to be run on computers only. Web browsing, email fetching, gaming, social networking, and multimedia streaming are examples of wide-spread smartphone applications. Unsurprisingly, network-related applications are dominant in the realm of smartphones. Users love to be connected while they are mobile. Streaming applications, as a part of network-related applications, are getting increasingly popular. Mobile TV, video on demand, and video sharing are some popular streaming services in the mobile world. Thus, the expected operational time of smartphones is rising rapidly. On the other hand, the enormous growth of smartphone applications and services adds up to a significant increase in complexity in the context of computation and communication needs, and thus there is a growing demand for energy in smartphones. Unlike the exponential growth in computing and communication technologies, the growth in battery technologies is not keeping up with the rapidly growing energy demand of these devices. Therefore, the smartphone's utility has been severely constrained by its limited battery lifetime. It is very important to conserve the smartphone's battery power. Even though hardware components are the actual energy consumers, software applications utilize the hardware components through the operating system. Thus, by making smartphone applications energy-efficient, the battery lifetime can be extended. With this view, this work focuses on two main problems: i) developing an energy testing methodology for smartphone applications, and ii) evaluating the energy cost and designing an energy-friendly downloader for smartphone streaming applications. The detailed contributions of this thesis are as follows: (i) it gives a generalized framework for energy performance testing and shows a detailed flowchart that application developers can easily follow to test their applications; (ii) it evaluates the energy cost of some popular streaming applications showing how the download strategy that an application developer adopts may adversely affect the energy savings; (iii) it develops a model of an energy-friendly downloader for streaming applications and studies the effects of the downloader's parameters regarding energy consumption; and finally, (iv) it gives a mathematical model for the proposed downloader and validates it by means of experiments.

▼ Devices such as smartphones running mobile operating systems have become an integral part of society. Current smartphones are a response to the Internet's influence on computing technology: devices provide nearly pervasive access to information and commoditize a seemingly endless number of services. However, smartphones are more than ultra-portable Web browsers. They combine the expanse knowledge and information available on the Internet with local context made accessible through hardware features such as GPS receivers, microphones, cameras, and accelerometers. In the past several years, smartphone innovation and popularity has surged in response to more open programming interfaces and network capabilities. Underlying this valuable innovation lies increased security risk for users and providers of content and cellular service. In this dissertation, we explore the limitations of existing mobile operating systems to protect end users from undesirable behavior by downloaded applications. Existing security frameworks define security policy in terms of permissions. We use requested permissions to focuses security analysis of available applications. First, we consider which permissions applications request and show that this limited information can prevent applications with dangerous functionality from being installed. Second, we consider what applications do with permissions. We design and build a framework for realtime dynamic taint analysis to identify misuse of information such as location and phone identifiers. Finally, we consider what applications can do with permissions based on implemented functionality. In doing so, we use several types of source code analysis to identify both dangerous behavior and vulnerabilities in decompiled applications. While we find the coarseness of permissions to be insufficient in several cases, the permission-based model fundamentally aided our analysis, demonstrating new potential for protecting future mobile platforms.

▼ ABSTRACT Suicide remains an important issue for mental health professionals, with 44,193 deaths by suicide in 2015. The current response to a client experiencing a suicidal crisis is to collaboratively construct a crisis response plan. A crisis response plan is a document that outlines coping strategies intended to help a client resolve a suicidal crisis. Crisis response plans are made up of several content areas all designed to assist a client with effectively managing urges and thoughts related to suicide. With the increased prevalence of smartphones in the United States, researchers have begun to explore the potential for smartphones to augment and improve psychological treatment. Currently, the existing literature contains no examples of a digital application replacing a traditional treatment instrument, only in augmenting traditional treatments. However, the technology of smartphones presents an opportunity to improve access to therapeutic tools in an unprecedented way. Participants in this study were 14 clients undergoing treatment at the Texas Tech University Psychology Clinic or Texas Tech Student Counseling Center who used either a pencil-and-paper crisis response plan or the My3 application, a digital recreation of a crisis response plan, for three weeks before switching to the alternate crisis response plan format for three additional weeks of data collection. Client self-report data was collected during each participant’s weekly therapy session for six consecutive weeks. It was hypothesized (1) that the My3 application will be more effective at reducing suicide ideation than the pencil-and-paper crisis response plan, (2) that participants using the My3 application will report a greater degree of satisfaction with their crisis response plan than participants using the pencil-and-paper crisis response plan, and (3) that the ease of use afforded by the My3 application will explain the greater effectiveness of the smartphone application crisis response plan. A small-n repeated measures design was used to test these hypotheses. Data analyses using the reliable change index (RCI) were conducted for each of the hypotheses. Overall, there was mixed support for the hypotheses. Data for five participants supported hypothesis 1. Hypothesis 2 was not supported for any of participants. Hypothesis 3 was similarly not supported using the current sample. Ultimately, the current study provided preliminary data for future research into the effectiveness of smartphone applications as tools to augment clinical practice. The current study does not indicate superiority of the My3 application over the pencil-and-paper measures commonly used. However, it also does not suggest that there is any harm in using the two formats of crisis response plan in concert. Future investigations into the effectiveness of smartphone applications such as the My3 should attempt a randomized clinical trial design that would provide more definitive support for the use of a smartphone application alongside or in place… Advisors/Committee Members: Richards, C.

▼ BACKGROUND: Demand for mental health services, especially for clinical high-risk and early psychosis, has increased, creating a need for new solutions to increase access to and quality of care. Smartphones and mobile technology are potential tools to support coordinated specialty care (CSC) for early psychosis, given their potential to augment the six core roles of care: case management and team leadership, recovery-oriented psychotherapy, medication management, support for employment and education, coordination with primary care services, and family education and support. Such digital tools could enhance patient care and mitigate challenges for CSC. However, the services smartphones are offering specifically for coordinated specialty care and the level of evidence are unknown. OBJECTIVE: This thesis consists of three phases: 1) to review the published literature on smartphone technology to enhance care for patients with prodromal and early course psychosis and schizophrenia, 2) to create technology implementation guidelines for coordinated specialty care programs, and 3) to assess the framework created in phase two by implementing it at diverse sites across the country. METHODS: Phase I involved a systematic literature search conducted on August 16 and 17, 2019 which used PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Sciences, and PsycINFO electronic databases. All eligible studies were reviewed and screened based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Phase II was guided by the results discovered in phase I and consisted of modifying the Replicating Effective Programs framework to create a CSC focused model. Phase III entailed the implementation of the framework at eight coordinated specialty care programs in the United States. Findings from each visit guide improvements for the framework. RESULTS: The search conducted in phase I uncovered 388 unique results, of which 21 eligible studies on 16 unique app platforms were identified. Feasibility studies showed high user engagement and interest among patients, monitoring studies demonstrated correlations between app assessments and clinical outcomes, and intervention studies indicated that these apps have the potential to advance care. The AACCS framework was developed in phase II which is composed of five stages: 1) Assess (e.g. identifying access to and comfort with technology), 2) Align (e.g. understanding aspects of coordinated specialty care that technology can augment), 3) Connect (e.g. customizing technology to the needs of patients and clinicians), 4) Care (e.g. implementing the digital tools into treatment), and 5) Sustain (e.g. creating sustainable technology-enabled mental health services). As phase III is ongoing, only results from the first few site visits are shared. Site 1, an amalgamation of three distinct programs, showcased that access to technology was not a barrier, however other aspects necessary for successful technology implementation were missing, such as access to high-speed internet and adequate technology training.

▼ This study examines key ways the new generation of mobile devices can enhance a user’s experience in New Zealand’s National Parks. With the growing adoption of smartphone and tablet devices, opportunities exist for this relatively new mobile computing platform to enhance visitor experience in New Zealand’s National Parks. Currently there exists a large number of mobile applications that could be considered relevant to National Park visitors, however, many are poorly conceived, poorly executed, or fail to take advantage of modern smartphone capabilities. Many existing solutions merely repackage existing print or web material and do not leverage the unique display and interaction capabilities offered by modern mobile devices. In this study, a wide range of existing iPhone applications are examined and analysed in terms of their essential or innovative characteristics. Critical elements for successful applications are identified. These are: location awareness (context sensitive information), immersive and compelling user experiences, integration with social networking, and engagement with the environment. A staged process is followed where three individual but related experiments systematically apply design methods of ideation, prototyping, and production to create an array of outcomes. These outcomes include extensive collections of application concepts (possibilities), rapid prototypes, semi-developed applications, and fully functional applications capable of being used in situ. All of these outputs have been informed by wide ranging IDEO ideation and production techniques, including: activity analysis, character profiles, extreme user interviews, fly on the wall, paper prototyping, quick and dirty prototyping, scenarios, try it yourself, and multiple site visits. When developing smartphone software, developers often assume the roles of Designer and Programmer. Design is considered a broad and complex discipline and consists of many subdomains (for example, interaction design, experience design, service design, strategic design). In this study, the application designer’s role involves aspects of interaction design, information design, experience design, and graphic design. In this research it is identified that during design and implementation phases there can be a tendency for ‘hybrid’ designer/ programmers to restrict ideas early in the design process. From this finding a simple guideline is developed to help mitigate this effect. While in some cases the hybrid designer/programmer role may need to be managed carefully, the input from this combined skill set is found to speed up development and encourage rapid iteration. This research identifies many opportunities for enhancing visitor experience through the use of smartphone technology. By using the tools and techniques identified in this study, a large number of innovative concepts were created and three iPhone and iPad applications were deployed to Department of Conservation sites around the South Island of New Zealand. Furthermore, it is found that the… Advisors/Committee Members: Abbott, Mick (advisor).

▼ Como os índices do SAEB, da PROVA BRASIL e do PISA constatam a dificuldade de compreensão de textos pelos estudantes das séries finais do Ensino Fundamental, esta pesquisa propôs o trabalho com a leitura de microconto pela tela do smartphone por supor que a leitura desse gênero mediada pelo dispositivo tecnológico pudesse motivar os alunos e, assim, tornar a aprendizagem de leitura mais profícua. Dado que esse gênero pertence à ordem do narrar - ato inerente ao homem - e o uso das tecnologias não só é recomendado por especialistas, mas também faz parte da vida dos alunos, a pesquisa adotou o objetivo de: analisar o interesse de alunos do 9º ano do Ensino Fundamental da Rede Pública pela leitura do gênero microconto, mediada por um aplicativo para smartphone. O estudo baseou-se na proposta de leitura de Antunes (2003, 2009), Goulemot (2009), Marcuschi (1996, 2008), Possenti (2001) e outros. O ensino-aprendizagem do gênero textual pautou-se no Interacionismo de Bakhtin (1997) e na abordagem funcional de Marcuschi (2008, 2010). O reconhecimento do microconto como gênero textual baseou-se em Gonzaga (2007), Silva (2013), Spalding (2008) além de outros. As bases teóricas para o uso dos objetos digitais de aprendizagem seguiram a linha teórica de Lévy (1993, 1996, 1998), Silva (2007), Schwarzelmüller e Ornellas (2007), Xavier (2008) e Moura (2009), dentre outros. Utilizando uma abordagem qualitativa de natureza aplicada, a pesquisa constituiu-se um estudo de caso e, para a sua execução, foi proposto um aplicativo educacional de leitura chamado Continho por meio do qual quatro alunos foram desafiados a ler microcontos em diferentes níveis de compreensão, usando recursos multimodais. Durante o jogo, os alunos responderam a um gabarito para investigar o seu desempenho e, após jogarem, responderam a um questionário de seis questões para verificar sua reação ao jogar pelo display de um celular. Com o método de análise de discurso, o resultado da pesquisa confirmou a atratividade da leitura de microconto pela tela do smartphone e, assim, revelou a vantagem de a escola trelar a leitura às novas tecnologias para possibilitar um encontro prazeroso entre o estudante e o texto.

En smartphone är en teknisk apparat som successivt tar mer och mer plats i vårt vardagsliv. Att äga denna tekniska pryl betyder att man är ständigt anträffbar och att vara utan den har kommit att bli allt svårare. I takt med detta läggs mycket av vår uppmärksamhet och tid på våra smartphones vilket kan bidra med bland annat konsekvenser för våra sociala interaktioner med de närmsta vi har, vår familj. Vårt syfte med denna uppsats är att skapa en förståelse kring användandet av smartphones samt vilket inflytande den har på sociala interaktioner samt tillgängligheten mellan föräldrar och barn. Vi har valt att göra en kvalitativ studie för att besvara vår frågeställning och uppnå vårt syfte. Vidare har vi valt att använda oss av semistrukturerade intervjuer för att skapa en djupare förståelse kring våra espondenters känslor, uppfattningar, åsikter och erfarenheter kring smartphones. Dessa intervjuer har vi sedan tolkat i vårt resultat utifrån en hermeneutisk infallsvinkel. Vidare har vi kopplat resultatet till tidigare forskning för att hitta samband och olikheter samt använt oss av teorier för att stödja våra tolkningar i vår sociologiska analys. Det teoretiska ramverket vi har utgått ifrån har innefattat tid och rum (Giddens), Social responsivitet kontra asocial responslöshet (Asplund) och sociala roller (Goffman). Resultatet visar i sin tur att smartphones skapar en distansering mellan föräldrar och barn vilket bidrar till en försämrad interaktion mellan dem. Samtidigt uppskattades tillgängligheten som smartphones bidrog med då våra respondenter ansåg det vara viktigt att kunna nå sina barn respektive föräldrar oberoende av tid och rum.

A Smartphone is a technical device which is gradually taking more and more place in our everyday lives. To possess this technological gadget means that you are constantly available and to be without it has become increasingly difficult. In line with this, a great deal of our attention and time is put on our smartphones which can contribute with consequences for our social interactions with the nearest we have, our family. Our purpose with this paper is to create an understanding of the use of smartphones and what influence it has on the social interactions and availability between parents and children. We have chosen to do a ualitative study to answer our questions and to achieve our aim with this study. Furthermore, we have chosen to use semi-structured interviews to create a deeper understanding of people's feelings, perceptions, opinions and experiences about smartphones. These interviews have been interpreted in our results by using a hermeneutic perspective. Furthermore, we have linked the results to previous research to find correlations and differences and theories to support our interpretations of our sociological analysis. The theoretical framework we have used has included time and space (Giddens), social responsiveness versus asocial unresponsiveness (Asplund) and social roles (Goffman). The result shows in turn that the smartphone creates a distance…
