Learning Outcomes

1

Explain the individual characteristics of mobile and ubiquitous computing, how they interrelate, and why (and how) these characteristics should be considered in the design, development, and evaluation of computing technologies.

2

Apply theoretical and practical knowledge to develop applications that are mobile-device specific and that demonstrate current practice in mobile and ubiquitous computing contexts.

3

Apply standard design approaches to create and evaluate user interfaces and to adapt these interfaces to the particular emerging demands of mobile and ubiquitous computing systems.

4

Apply theoretical and practical knowledge to develop mobile-specific applications using appropriately selected cross-platform approaches that demonstrate current practice in mobile application development.
