Infos

"The new era of powerful, mobile computing and sensing devices
having ever larger memories and personal databases brings to light
a number of difficult problems in software, interface design,
search, organization of information, and methods for inferring
context and for sharing personal content... The authors have
done an admirable job at describing the problems and opportunities
and, as such, this book should be on the shelves of researchers
struggling to make these mobile devices truly valuable to the ever
expanding number of their users."

--David G. Stork, Chief Scientist, Ricoh Innovations

Personal Content Experience is a comprehensive
introduction to mobile personal content. The book introduces and
explores issues such as context capture, user interfaces for
continuous mobile use, UI design for mobile media applications,
metadata magic, virtual communities, and ontologies. User
interactions and behavioural patterns with personal content are
also covered, resulting in a 'GEMS' lifecycle model for
analysing media devices, services, applications, and user
interfaces. In addition, the book describes an extensible software
architecture targeted at content management in mobile devices,
pointing out the essential topics that will benefit anyone
developing mobile content-intensive applications and services.

Personal Content Experience:

* Establishes a foundation for analyzing applications, services
and user interfaces targeted at personal content.

* Provides a strong industrial insight, combining hands-on
examples, application concepts and software architecture
descriptions with theoretical frameworks and models.

* Offers a multi-disciplinary approach, considering both user
perspective and technology aspects.

This book is a clear and practical guide to the field of
personal content and will be invaluable to practitioners in mobile
industry and digital content management, media-intensive
application developers, content creators and distributors, academic
researchers, and lecturers in computer science and multimedia.
