This paper presents the TRIANGLE testbed approach to score the Quality of Experience (QoE) of mobile applications, based on measurements extracted from tests performed on an end-to-end network testbed. The TRIANGLE project approach is a methodology flexible enough to generalize the computation of the QoE for any mobile application. The process produces a final TRIANGLE mark, a quality score, which could eventually be used to certify applications.

This article is devoted to the study of the conditions for the formation of paremiological competence in a foreign language lesson using mobile applications. Their usage allows to improve the quality of the process of learning foreign language thanks to the elements of interactivity. Mobile applications provide the ability of flexible adaptation of educational content to the individual needs of the teacher. Using the mobile application called ‘Quizlet’ is one of the most effective ways to form the paremiological component of communicative competence in schoolchildren at the initial stage of education. The success of using this mobile application in teaching English vocabulary is confirmed by the results of the pedagogical experiment.

157 Background: The use of digital health technology, including mobile applications, in the clinical setting is becoming increasingly more prevalent. Such technology is currently being explored as clinical research tools. While the side effects of prostate radiotherapy are well documented after treatment, there remains a paucity of data on patient-reported outcomes and changes in quality of life (QOL) during the treatment period. Therefore, mobile applications represent a practical platform to enable patient reporting in real-time during prostate radiotherapy. Methods: Using an existing open source code framework (Apple ResearchKit), we developed a novel mobile application that enables prostate cancer patients to report, either during or immediately following daily radiation treatment, changes in urinary, bowel, sexual, and hormonal QOL domains. The mobile application utilizes validated questions from the Expanded Prostate Index Composite for Clinical Practice (EPIC-CP) Survey, and allows for survey responses to be tracked over time throughout the treatment period and at routine follow up. Results: For the initial phase of our study, we are currently piloting the mobile application at a single institution with a goal of accruing 50 patients. Study results will be compared to data from traditional surveys, which are available at follow-up but impracticable for real-time symptom reporting. By ASCO 2016 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium, we plan to begin the second phase of our study where any patient can enroll online through a mobile software distribution platform (Apple App Store). Conclusions: We demonstrate the feasibility of using a mobile application to enable patients to report quality of life changes in real-time during prostate radiotherapy. Moreover, our application facilitates clinical trials where patient data collection can be automated and completed at scale. Future prospective studies are planned to evaluate validity of clinical trial data gathered through such methodology.

Intention To Continue

The main objective of this research work was to analyze the factors that influence satisfaction and the intention to continue with the use of mobile transport applications in young university students from Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. The approach was quantitative. 144 valid responses were used, and partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to test the model. The software employing was the SmartPLS 3. The results indicate that the quality of the design, the quality of the information and the quality of the system are predictors of influence on satisfaction. Companies that offer individual passenger transport through a mobile application have increased in recent years, generating strong competition both between existing brands and with established traditional taxis. This study provides new and recent information for marketing managers and academics on application user behavior in the transportation industry.

Tools And Techniques

Statistics hold that 80% of the mobile applications are deleted after just one-time use. A significant reason for this can be attributed to the quality of the mobile application, thus impressing on the need for testing a mobile application before it is made available on the app stores. At the same time, the mobile application lifecycle time is shrinking. So while operating systems used to get release about once in a couple of years, mobile operating systems get updated within months. And talking of apps, new apps are expected to be built and released in a matter of weeks. This impresses the need for automated mechanisms to do mobile testing. The space of mobile application testing is challenging owing to the variety of phone devices, the operating systems and the conditions under which an app can be used by the user in the wild. This chapter is focused on tools and techniques that are used for automated testing of mobile applications.
