Most modern tablet devices and phones include tilt-based sensing but to-date tilt is primarily used either for input with games or for detecting screen orientation. This paper presents the results of an experiment with teenage users to explore a new tilt-based input technique on mobile devices intended for text entry. The experiment considered the independent variables grip (one-handed, two-han...

Media Independent Handover (MIH) is an emerging standard which supports the communication of network-critical events to upper layer mobility protocols. One of the key features of MIH is the event service, which supports predictive network degradation events that are triggered based on link layer metrics. For set route vehicles, the constrained nature of movement enables a degree of network perf...

The advancements in peer-to-peer wireless power transfer (P2P-WPT) have empowered the portable and mobile devices to wirelessly replenish their battery by directly interacting with other nearby devices. existing works unrealistically assume users exchange energy any of at every such opportunity. However, due users’ mobility, inter-node meetings opportunistic networks vary, P2P scenarios remains...

Mobile crowd sensing (MCS) is a popular paradigm that leverages the power of massive mobile workers to perform various location-based tasks. To assign with suitable tasks, recent research works investigated mobility prediction methods based on probabilistic and statistical models estimate worker’s moving behavior, which allocation algorithm designed match tasks such do not need deviate from the...
