Designing a Business Model for Mobile TV on Mobile Devices


Book Description

Master's Thesis from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: B, Aalborg University (CMI, Copenhagen Institute of Technology,), course: Masters degree in Information Communication Technology, language: English, abstract: The author studied the business model that will be suitable for deploying Mobile TV as a service to the user/customer, the market players and the providers involved in rolling out such as service. The research which was carried out in this project included finding a suitable business model to drive this service and also looking at the various technologies that is backing the mobile TV service. In order to know what pertains in Ghana and that of the outside world, the author conducted a small survey to seek the views of future and present customers of this service. Their responses were not too different from what have been reported by other surveys and analysts. During the project there was evidence that the operators and providers will need clearly defined roles in order for each member to be committed to the project and also to sustain the service. Despite the challenges outlined by experts in the industry, there is light at the end of the tunnel for Mobile TV service which is yet to be seen. The Europeans, the Americans and the Asians have already taken lead in this service and are constantly researching to make the service affordable, available, and interactive as possible and innovated than the traditional TV.

Mobile Interactions in Context


Book Description

This book presents a contextual approach to designing contemporary interactive mobile computer systems as integral parts of ubiquitous computing environments. Interactive mobile systems, services, and devices have become functional design objects that we care deeply about. Although their look, feel, and features impact our everyday lives as we orchestrate them in concert with a plethora of other computing technologies, these artifacts are not well understood or created through traditional methods of user-centered design and usability engineering. Contrary to more traditional IT artifacts, they constitute holistic user experiences of value and pleasure that require careful attention to the variety, complexity, and dynamics of their usage. Hence, the design of mobile interactions proposed in this book transcends existing approaches by using the ensemble of form and context as its central unit of analysis. As such, it promotes a designerly way of achieving convergence between form and context through a contextually grounded, wholeness sensitive, and continually unfolding process of design. Table of Contents: Acknowledgments / Introduction / Mobile Computing / Interaction Design / Design Approaches / A Decade of Mobile HCI Research / Toward a Designerly Way / Revisiting User-Centered Design / Continual Convergence of Form and Context / Where to from Here? / References / Author Biography

How to Start a Phone Case Business From Home


Book Description

Mobile devices have taken over the human population. There are 8.5 billion mobile device connections around the world, compared to our population of 7.6 billion people. While this sounds like the start of a sci-fi horror film, it’s actually a good sign if you want to create your own phone case and accessories to sell online. Custom phone cases, in particular, are easy to source and appeal to people who are looking to inject some individuality or extra functionality into the one device they can’t live without. Building a business around making and selling your own phone cases comes with a variety of benefits: It’s easy to hold inventory and ship, due to their small size. • They’re relatively low-cost to produce. • You can sell them both online and in an offline kiosk. • You can print on demand to start with a lower risk or buy in bulk for better margins. Every new phone model offers a new opportunity to cater to the 44% of smartphone owners who upgrade every two years. If making and selling phone cases sounds like a compelling online business idea but you don’t know where to start, you’re in the right place.
