...such as my relatives, have the belief that giving a cellphone to a child is a synonym of security. Nevertheless, there are others who strongly believe that this action is a matter of irresponsibility. Although there are several opinions with regard to giving a child a smartphone, it is necessary to bear in mind that there exist a high number of advantages as well as disadvantages of accepting giving one to a minor. Nowadays, mobiles are part of our lives; in fact, no matter if it is for grown-ups or children, giving a smartphone to a child has a relative number of perks. For instance, these days, technology is an essential aspect in life. Buying and selling goods and items, searching information, studying and others are the advantages of technology. That is why it is important the new generations need to be hand-in-hand with technology. In this sense, smartphones are a kind of link between having services in an easy way on the Internet and the constant development of the technologic world. Besides, this development means that people need to be prepared for the new advances; therefore, giving a child the opportunity of having a cell phone can be translated as opening the gates to the new possible access to the reality we are living right now.

The continuous behavior of adopters over time is difficult to analyze and most previous studies were cross-sectional rather than longitudinal. In order to overcome these limitations, a mathematical diffusion model with verified official time-series data is used to analytically investigate the impact of both innovation and imitation effects on the mobile phone adoption in South Korea. The results showed that the imitation effect of the first mover was larger than those of the followers in the mature mobile telecommunication services market in South Korea. The innovation effect of the follower was larger than that of the first mover, and the innovation effect was larger than the imitation effect in the market.

...Assignment 3: Mobile Computing and Social Networking CIS 500 November 24, 2013 Introduction The U.S. market for advanced patient monitoring systems has grown from $3.9 billion in 2007 to $8.9 billion in 2011 and is forecast to reach $20.9 billion by 2016, according to a study by Kalorama Information. Efforts to reduce costs in healthcare, avoid emergency room overcrowding, and prepare for a growing number of elderly patients in the years to come are a few of the drivers for the adoption of these systems. (Remote Patient Monitoring, 2012) Compare and contrast monitoring of patient vital signs using mobile computing technology to in-patient visits to the doctor’s office or hospital. Advances in remote patient monitoring include new peripherals, real-time audio and video for "face-to-face" interaction between clinicians and patients, and devices that are expected to transmit data to a physician's EMR system. The use of smart phones and broadband-enabled devises has allowed patients to do their own monitoring of vital signs and body functions and upload them to their medical provider’s clinical servers. For example, a glucose monitor that can also track a patient's blood pressure, another trend is the increasing use of patient monitoring systems that come with data processing applications and equipment that use algorithms to evaluate monitoring measurements for a patient's specific condition. (Remote Patient Monitoring, 2012) Hospitals and physician’s offices are...

...advent of mobile phones has squeezed this large world and brought it into the palm of human being. However mobile phones have always been instigating debates among the people about their merits and demerits. Apart from the instant access they give us, mobile phones have multipurpose uses ranging from business work, means for entertainment and ensuring security. On the other hand, they have some disadvantages like initiating violation of privacy, unnecessary wastage of money, talking on mobile phones while driving and emission of radiation from the handsets which is allegedly harmful for health. I would like to argue for the advantages of mobile phones which outweigh their disadvantages. The main feature of mobile phones is instant access' which makes them the most exclusive devices for communication. Now people can make voice or VDO call or send text messages to anyone anytime from almost anywhere at a cheap rate using mobile phones. Besides this, with the aid of the latest WAP technology users can surf the internet, send emails and chat with other people at a low cost (http://www.webuser.co.uk, 24th October, 2007).
