Abstract

In this paper, we describe the Smart Profile Management application that was designed to help minimize mobile phone disruptions. The system achieves the goal using a machine learning based algorithm that switches the phone profile automatically. A prototype was developed in Python for S60 and an informal usability test was run for a period of 7 days. Results show that a large proportion of profile suggestion changes were accepted by subjects, suggesting that such an application can in fact lower disruptions.
