Title: Mobile 2.0 - Disruptive Research Opportunities Speaker: Dr. Mike Chen, Ludic Labs, Inc. Time: 02:20pm, March 20 (Friday), 2009 Place: Room 102, CSIE building 全世界有超過三十億的手機用戶, 遠超於網路用戶的兩倍. iPhone 3G, Android 和 Palm Pre 的上市, 不僅是一個新的商機, 更是學術研究能有突破性的進展的機會. 我將分享多年來在UC Berkeley, Intel Research, 和在Web 2.0 及 Mobile創業公司做手機研發的成果 , 並提出我對手機2.0趨勢的看法. Mobile phone is the most pervasive technology in the world. With more than 3 billion subscribers spread across both developed and developing regions, it is in use by 2x the number of Internet users and 3x the number of personal computer users world wide. Nevertheless, mobile phone has received relatively little attention from the research community, mainly because of the difficulty in developing and deploying software on these devices. In this talk, I will present several mobile phone research projects and user studies that were conducted on closed mobile phone platforms. The first is low-cost and low-power GSM-based location sensing. The second is MyExperience, a framework that simplifies the collection of both sensor data and sensor-triggered user feedback. The third, UbiFit, explores the combination of wearable sensors that detect fitness-related activities and the use of mobile phone as an ambient display to increase user awareness. In addition, I will share and contrast my experience working in academic research, a corporate research lab, and an early-stage Web 2.0 startup. The recent introduction of iPhone 3G, Android, and other smartphones will dramatically change how mobile and ubiquitous computing research is conducted. For the first time in history, researchers have access to widely deployed open computing platforms that are always-on, always-connected, and in-situ. These platforms enable deployment opportunities that are orders of magnitude greater than before. Also, the sensing capabilities and the availability of social context on these platforms bring exciting interdisciplinary research challenges. --
