Teleophthalmology Through Handheld Mobile Devices: A Pilot Study in Rural Nepal

Barriers to pilot mobile teleophthalmology in a rural hospital in Southern Malawi

INTRODUCTION Malawi has one of the highest HIV prevalences in Sub-Saharan Africa. The rate of eligible HIV-infected people being initiated on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and retained in HIV-care is currently far from adequate. Consequently, many people continue present with advanced immunosuppression at public health facilities, often with undiagnosed opportunistic infections (OIs). METHODS ...

Ubiquitous Access to Information Through Portable, Mobile, and Handheld Devices

Practical Strong Security for Mobile Handheld Devices

We present a method for constructing signature schemes for use with mobile handheld devices that mitigates the risk of an attacker forging signatures using key material garnered from a lost handheld. This scheme is forward-secure, meaning that signatures created before a breach are still valid, and server-assisted, meaning that a separate untrusted server must assist the device in signing, ther...

Interface Design for Handheld Mobile Devices

Mobile computing has attracted a lot of attention from both the industry and academia in recent years. While a number of mobile applications have been developed, there are no established guidelines on the design of mobile device interfaces. This paper presents our initial efforts to provide a set of practical design guidelines for mobile device interfaces.
