August 9-12, 2012, Seattle, Washington

The proliferation of smartphones, tablets, and wireless networks has had a profound impact on consumption of information system based services. Companies have stepped up their efforts to support the nomadic behavior of their customers by offering applications and services through the mobile platform. Our understanding of HCI related issues in the context of smart devices and applications delivered through it is limited. Thus, the main goal of the mini-track is to initiate a knowledge base on comprehending the opportunities and challenges in the area of mobility from the perspective of HCI. 

The mini-track is open to theoretical, experimental, survey-based, or field studies that offer interesting and novel theoretical and practical insights on HCI issues in mobility. Both regular papers and work-in-progress papers are welcome. The specific topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. User acceptance of mobile applications
2. Usability of mobile devices and mobile applications 
3. Understanding user cognitions, beliefs, and attitudes in the mobile environment
4. Design issues related to mobile devices and applications
5. Understanding mobile services consumption behavior
6. Mobility and workplace productivity
7. Impacts of mobility on social interaction
8. Privacy and security in mobility
