Mobiiliteknologia liikkuvan työntekijän apuna

Nomadic workers travel often between different work sites and work mainly outside their regular work place, but often require access to information stored electronically in corporate information systems. While working in field conditions, communication with an information system can be achieved by using mobile technology, i.e. mobile devices and wireless communication. This master’s thesis researches the use of mobile technology to assist nomadic field workers in their tasks. First different mobile technologies are compared and constraints that characterize mobile computing are explained. In the practical part of the thesis client software is developed for a mobile device. The software allows a nomadic construction worker to identify concrete elements and to acquire and update information concerning them. The characteristics of mobile computing and their effect on usability are taken into account when implementing the client software and the software is designed to be as easy to use as possible.
