Program Overview

Praktikum Mobile Productivity (Praktikum Entwicklung Mediensysteme)

Overview

The Praktikum Mobile Productivity is a practical course that investigates potential tools to increase productivity of staff, particularly blue collar workers, using mobile terminals. The central question is: What is the set of generic applications on the mobile terminal that supports the mobile worker?
