Experts expect that apps and the web will converge in the cloud, driven by trends in mobile devices, cloud computing, and app usage. While apps provide simplicity, some worry this could come at the cost of losing aspects of an open web. A survey of technology experts found that most believed the web would remain strong, but others felt apps would dominate users' online experiences by 2020. The outcomes may involve elements of both scenarios.

Mobile computing application risks in ZimbabweIOSR Journals
Abstract: Mobile technology has now become the order of the day. Everyone seems to own one or more mobile
devices. Everyone is so excited because this has made life easier for a lot of people. Though mobile technology
has brought many benefits to people’s lives, its application has some risks that come with it. This paper
therefore looked at mobile computing application areas in Zimbabwe, the risks brought about by mobile
computing application in Zimbabwe and how mobile computing application risks are mitigated in a developing
country like Zimbabwe where the technology level seems to be behind. The study findings showed that mobile
application areas in Zimbabwe include paying bills, social networking and playing games. Most Zimbabweans
revealed that they do not know how to mitigate mobile computing application risks. The study finally
recommended that mobile computing application risks should be taught in schools as well as in televisions and
radios so that everyone is aware of them.

Evolution of Social Media and its effects on Knowledge OrganisationCollabor8now Ltd
There has been a lot of hype around social media, social networks and social business, much of it unhelpful in understanding what this is all about. For some people, “social” will always mean frivolity and time wasting. For others, social media just means marketing and communications.
The evolution of social media over the past several years has made it easier than ever before to find, connect and engage with “experts” and people with similar interests. Enlightened organisations have recognised that investment in social technologies and (most importantly) the organisational change required in order to nurture and embed a collaborative culture, can overcome the limitations of silo’d structures that have traditionally inhibited information flows and opportunities for innovation.
In a broader context, the pervasive and ubiquitous availability of social media in almost all aspects of daily life, from the way we communicate, get information, buy and sell, travel, live and learn is adding to the pressure on organisations to provide a more porous interface between internal (behind the firewall) and external services. Knowledge workers are increasingly making their own decisions on what tools, products and services that they need to work more effectively and will become increasingly disaffected if these are not available within the work environment.
This presentation looks at industry trends on how social media and social technologies are changing the way that we generate, organise and consume knowledge, and how this is driving emergent digital literacies for knowledge workers.
Smartphones have become the main mobile device of many and are as important as wallet and keys. Trends on smartphones and tablets in the enterprise (Androids, iPads and iPhones), technology distractions, how many workers use their personal devices at work, future of BlackBerry and Microsoft phones and more.

The past, present, and future outlook of Mobility. This presentation tracks everything from the first transistor created in 1947, through the exabytes of data created every month.
Mobile apps have become increasingly popular as they are accessible on portable devices, can be used anywhere, and many are free to download. They cover a wide range of topics from business and travel to education, entertainment, and social networking. In 2009, Apple dominated the mobile app market with 99.4% of sales, and by 2010 over 4.5 billion apps had been sold, generating $6.8 billion in total revenue.
Research from mobile survey company, On Device Research, which was conducted directly on the mobile internet, has revealed a new internet audience.
More than 50% of Asian and African mobile internet users as well as more than 20% of users in developed markets, such as the UK and US do not use the internet on a PC.
The deck shows the profile of this new generation of internet users and is the first in a series of free quarterly reports.
Mobile technology is transforming education by giving students ubiquitous access to information. Children are increasingly using mobile devices at younger ages, with 7 in 10 children under 12 having used a mobile device or tablet. Mobile devices allow non-traditional learning that is not confined to the classroom. Educational apps can significantly increase vocabulary for young children. While mobile technology opens opportunities for learning, its increasing use by children also raises questions about impacts on development.
25 digital or tech stories you may have missed, from - or potentially impacting on the Middle East - curated by Damian Radcliffe (@damianradcliffe).
Middle East Stories this quarter include: New data on MENA Internet usage, highlights from the 5th Arab Social Media Report, Arab Media Use: Social networks (and the web) are key sources of news, stats on massive mobile growth in the last 10 years, how mobile is increasingly important to get online, Facebook in 2017, highlights from the 5th Arab Youth Survey.
Wider research includes: Our constant need to be connected, “showrooming”, in Q4 2012, more tablets shipped than PCs, “Project Loon”, McKinsey's 12 Disruptive Technologies, How “Connected” Cars could save lives and whether Facial Recognition for device security will be the next big thing?
The document discusses mobile input and forms. It makes three main points:
1. Put effort into input where there is the most payoff, such as on capable smartphones where input is easier. However, don't forget about SMS input which is widely used.
2. Take the pain out of forms by shortening them, using better layouts like top-aligned labels, defining clear input types, and using smart defaults to reduce input needed.
3. Look beyond traditional forms for input, such as using SMS, touch-friendly layouts, and leveraging new HTML5 input types. Focus on making input as easy as possible across different mobile devices.
The document discusses how Americans' internet and mobile device usage has rapidly increased, with people now accessing the internet wirelessly and through smartphones at high rates. It notes that government transportation departments need to recognize that the public is increasingly mobile and expects information to be available to them on the go. Departments should ensure their websites are mobile-friendly, use social media and apps to engage the public, and focus on accountability, responsiveness, and creativity in their communications strategies to reach travelers wherever they are.
This document provides an overview of mobile trends among students and how higher education institutions are responding. It discusses how students today are digital natives who rely heavily on mobile devices and social media. While most colleges have been slow to adopt mobile strategies, mobile access is becoming fundamental to how students experience college. The document argues that by providing mobile optimized websites and applications, colleges can better engage and connect with students.
The document discusses how technology has revolutionized businesses and workplaces. It notes that over half of adults own tablets and mobile phones, which have become primary modes of communication. To adapt, businesses must leverage technology for collaboration, productivity and efficiency gains while also limiting distractions. Younger employees expect mobile and digital work environments, which allow remote working and virtual teams. However, overreliance on electronic communication can harm workplace relationships if face-to-face interaction decreases. Overall, technology removes barriers, encourages innovation, and increases efficiency, but can also be costly, distracting, and affect relationships if not implemented and managed properly.
This document summarizes research on tablet usage and the iPad market in early 2011. It finds that tablets were being adopted faster than any other mobile device, with over 28 million iPads sold in 2010. While tablet usage was still small compared to other devices, many companies were preparing to launch their own tablets to compete with the iPad. The document also examines the demographics of iPad users and how the iPad was being used, finding that most users spent 1-5 hours per day on activities like web browsing, email and apps.
This document discusses tablets as a platform for news. It provides statistics showing that tablet ownership among U.S. adults has nearly doubled in the past year, with those earning $75k or more and those aged 35-44 most likely to own tablets. Experts argue that tablets are well-suited for reading magazines due to their interactive capabilities, though some worry dedicated magazine apps may get lost among other apps. The Daily, a digital news magazine launched by News Corp in 2011, ceased operations in 2012 due to an inability to attract a large enough audience to make the business model sustainable. A study found that few students would be willing to pay for tablet news or magazine apps. Tablet sales and Apple's market share have declined
The document discusses the evolution of digital marketing and consumer trends related to internet usage. It notes that while the internet was originally created to interconnect government research laboratories, it is now used by over half the world's population for various purposes through different devices. The three most visited websites globally are Google, YouTube, and Facebook. Online video consumption and time spent watching videos has also increased rapidly in recent years. Email and searching for information remain the most common internet activities.
This document discusses the rise of smartphone usage and our increasing reliance on mobile technology. It notes that more children now own mobile phones than books, but that educational apps can provide learning benefits. While mobiles offer opportunities, they also present risks like cyberbullying, and most mobile data usage is for texting rather than calls as phones have changed how we communicate. It ultimately questions how mobile phone usage may continue to change our lives in the future.

Technology has transformed how we access the internet, use digital devices, search for information, shop online, and consume videos and media. It has allowed people to work, learn, communicate, and access services remotely. During the COVID-19 pandemic, technology played a crucial role as people relied on virtual tools for work, school, healthcare, and social connections. The widespread adoption of smartphones and internet access has significantly impacted consumer behaviors and trends in recent years.
Mary Meeker presented on Internet trends at the 2012 Stanford Internet Trends conference. Some key points from her presentation include:
- Global internet and smartphone usage continues to grow rapidly, driven by emerging markets. By 2012 there were over 2 billion global internet users and over 1 billion smartphone subscribers.
- Mobile internet traffic is growing and surpassing desktop internet usage in some countries. Mobile also accounted for 24% of online Black Friday shopping in the US in 2012, up from 6% in 2010.
- Devices like smartphones, tablets, and new operating systems are re-imagining computing and driving significant changes in how people access and consume information. By some estimates, smartphone and tablet shipments will exceed PC shipments in

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
