We present a mobile phone based virtual market system to facilitate socioeconomic activities in developing regions. The system is built upon SMS (Short Message Service) platform. Our system, enhanced with novel integration of NLP (Natural Language Processing) technologies, provides an intuitive and reasonable means of exchanging market information across long distance and has a potential of ben...

Nowadays, mobile phones are very popular in the world. The use of text email with short message service (SMS) is spreading. In this study, we evaluated the legibility of characters on the liquid crystal displays of mobile phones. When characters are small, younger people assure readability by shortening the viewing distance. However, elderly people find it far more difficult to see small charac...

Text normalization is a task of generating plain text from an un normalized text. Mobile technology has contributed to the evolution of several media of communication such as chats, emails and short message service (SMS) text. This has significantly influenced the traditional standard way of expressing views from letter writing to a high-tech form of expression known as texting language. In thi...

Dissemination of medical information using mobile phones is still in a nascent stage because of their limited features – lack of penetration of mobile internet, small screen size etc. We present the design of a drug QA system that could be used for providing information about medicines over short message service (SMS). We begin with a survey of the drug information domain and classify the drug ...

We report development and implementation of a short message service (SMS)-based system to facilitate active monitoring of persons potentially exposed to Ebola virus disease (EVD), whether returning from EVD-affected countries, or contacts of local cases, should they occur. The system solicits information on symptoms and temperature twice daily. We demonstrated proof-of-concept; however this sys...

I addition to the wireless telephony boom, a similar exponentially increasing trend in wireless data service— for example, short message service (SMS)—is visible as technology advances. We develop a structural model to examine user demand for voice service and SMS. Specifically, we measure the ownand cross-price elasticities of these services. The cross-price elasticity is of significant import...

This paper presents the methodology, results and effectiveness in the development of Mobile telephonebased (Short Message Service-based) distance learning. The proposed novel real time interactive distance learning approach is about the application of information technology to education, was setup, delivered and evaluated using a real-life environment. Statistical analysis of the achieved resul...

Short Message Service (SMS) is a hugely popular and easily adopted communications technology for mobile devices. Yet due to a lack of understanding in its insecure implementation, it is generally trusted by people. Users conduct business, disclose passwords and receive sensitive notification reports from systems using this communication technology. SMS was an “after-thought” in the Global Syste...

BACKGROUND Mobile text messages are a widely recognized communication method in societies, as the global penetration of the technology approaches 100% worldwide. Systematic knowledge is still lacking on how the mobile telephone text messaging (short message service, SMS) has been used in health care services. OBJECTIVE This study aims to review the literature on the use of mobile phone text m...
