Mobile Information Retrieval
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-60776-4 (ISBN)
The book starts by addressing the differences between IR and Mobile IR, while also reviewing the foundations of Mobile IR research. It then examines the different kinds of documents, users, and information needs that can be found in Mobile IR, and which set it apart from standard IR. Next, it discusses the two important issues of user interfaces and context-awareness. In closing, it covers issues related to the evaluation of Mobile IR applications.
Overall, the book offers a valuable tool, helping new and veteran researchers alike to navigate this exciting and highly dynamic area of research.
Fabio Crestani has been Professor at the Università della Svizzera Italiana (USI) in Lugano, Switzerland since 2007. Before that he was Professor at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow (UK) and the University of Padua (Italy), spending sabbatical time at Yahoo! (Spain), UC Berkeley (USA), PARC (USA), and the University of Grenoble (France). His main areas of research are Information Retrieval, Text Mining, and Digital Libraries. He has co-edited 9 books and published over 200 refereed papers in these areas of research. Stefano Mizzaro is Associate Professor at the University of Udine, Italy, since 2006. His current research interests include Information Retrieval and mobile contextual information access. He published more than 100 refereed papers, several as a single author, received some international awards for best papers, and authored two books on Java programming. He had an active role in several research projects at regional, national, and European level. Ivan Scagnetto holds a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Udine and is Researcher (Assistant Professor) at the same university since 2005. His current research activity is focused on Computer Aided Formal Reasoning and Mobile/Distributed Systems. He is co-author of several peer-reviewed papers and of a textbook on server-side web technologies. He worked in several research and technology transfer projects at regional, national and international level.

"Overall, this is an interesting book to read. It is also an important summary of the mobile IR literature. Despite its relatively short length (less than 100 pages without reference), it manages to pack in a huge amount of useful information." (Daqing He, Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, 2018)
