Reviews and Testimonials
Mobile devices are one of the most accessible, transformative technologies that we have created, and they have had a rapid worldwide impact. Thus, a journal dedicated to the study of how they are used, how we perceive them, what systems we envisage creating, supporting or supplementing with them, and how they are altering our perceptions of communication, computation, interaction, and technology is both timely and interesting.
– Russell Beale, University of Birmingham, UK
The International Journal of Mobile Human Computer Interaction is a very valuable asset for researchers working in the mobile area. Before this journal came into existence, relevant references were scattered across so many journals and conferences that it was difficult to ensure that one had the best and most recent. That problem has thankfully been solved!
