MobileHCI is a forum for academics and
practitioners to discuss the challenges and potential solutions for
effective interaction with mobile systems and services. It covers the
design, evaluation and application of techniques and approaches for all
mobile computing devices and services.
The following is our outline programme - unforeseen
circumstances may force changes to this timetable but we hope to keep it
reasonably constant:
K =
Keynote T = Paper (talk) session
P = Panel
Most workshops and tutorials are likely to start at 0915 on Monday - see
individual sites for details
The main conference will start at 0900 Tuesday morning with registration
on Monday and from 0800 Tuesday
The conference will close at 1800 on Thursday

Unfortunately all deadlines for
submission of work to MobileHCI 04 have now passed.

David Wood
Executive Vice President, Research
Symbian |
David was a founding director of Symbian in
1998, having joined Psion (Symbian's original parent company) in June
1988. He is currently responsible for leading a series of
inter-departmental collaborative projects, focused on improving the
competitiveness and value of Symbian's overall offering. These
projects draw on resources both inside and outside of Symbian, and
take advantage of David's very considerable experience in multiple
previous roles in the company. As a software architect, he pioneered
the use of object-oriented technology within Psion in the late 1980s
for the creation of handheld computers, and went on to oversee the
architectural development of Symbian OS. From 1998 to 2002 he headed
Symbian's Technical Consulting department, building and directing
teams that worked with Symbian's customers to create the world's first
smartphones. During 2002 and 2003 he supervised the rapid growth of
Symbian's partnering programs, working with companies throughout the
emerging Symbian ecosystem to help them achieve technical and
commercial success. David has an MA in Mathematics from Cambridge
University, and has served as Symbian's representative on the OMA

Interactive Game
Seamful games are mobile multiplayer games, designed to let people take advantage of the limits and gaps of ubicomp infrastructure e.g.
wireless networks and positioning systems. In this game, two teams of players use PDAs with GPS and 802.11 to gain information from a server about the position of periodically appearing ‘coins’, the locations of other players, and wi-fi signal strength as sampled by players during the game. To gain points, a player has to get close to a coin (according to GPS), and use a GUI 'Pickup' command to pick it up. The game has an inbuilt tension between being in net coverage and being out. Initially, players are uncertain as to where there is coverage, but they can watch and talk to other players as they move, and use the dynamically updated 802.11 map overlay as they discover new access points and reveal more of the coverage.
Coins often appear in areas where there is no coverage, but one needs net coverage in order to upload coins and get game points. When in coverage, one can also get updates on players’ positions, new coins and net coverage, and use the 'Pickpocket' command. This steals coins out of the PDAs of any nearby players, so... watch out!
