Abstract

To create the most effective mobile applications, Oracle must understand how and in what contexts the mobile workforce is using their mobile devices. Oracle mobile researchers went into the workforce population and conducted an international, ethnographic field study to fully understand the mobile worker's needs, behaviors, and contextually based activities.
