Subjective Neurological Symptoms Among Mobile Phone Users

Background: A lot of investigations exist on the biological effects of radiofrequency and microwave radiation however only a few studies have considered non-carcinogenic exposure to radiations specifically from mobile phones. Objectives: To introduce some subjective neurological symptoms in mobile phone users. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional descriptive study conducted from March...

An empirical study on mobile phone usage

One of the major scientific undertakings over the past few years has been exploring the interaction between humans and machines in mobile environments. We have smart devices with high computational power. Some devices are also aware of context. For example, some mobile devices have built in GPS, light sensor and other detection devices like [1]. In this work, we will examine how mobile device c...

An Integrative Model of Mobile Phone Appropriation

The evolution of mobile communication devices and services has taken up a dynamic that makes any prognosis in the field almost impossible. Whereas part of this dynamic may remain inscrutable, we believe that a much higher degree of explanation can be achieved by systematically paying closer attention to the process of appropriation. To seize upon this potential, we present an integrative model ...

An Architecture for Mobile Phone Sensing

This paper presents a sensing system that logs sensor data on an Android-based mobile device and stores it to a remote server for further processing and analysis. This system consists of an application for Android operating system, FTP file server, a PostgreSQL database, an application that reads data from FTP and populates the database, an application that processes data stored on the server, ...
