A talk at the Eduserv Symposium 2010, about The Molly Project (http://mollyproject.org) and Mobile Oxford (http://m.ox.ac.uk) and why we don't need to pay licence fees to provide mobile services to our Universities.
The final report from the JISC Institutional Innovation Project Erewhon which ran from October 2008 to March 2010 and investigated uses of mobile and geo-spatial technologies in higher education.
Amongst other outputs, the most significant is now Mobile Oxford (http://m.ox.ac.uk) and the Molly Project (http://mollyproject.org)

The passage discusses the importance of summarization in an age of information overload. It notes that with the massive amounts of data available online, being able to quickly understand the key points of lengthy documents, articles, or reports is crucial. The ability to produce clear, concise summaries helps people save time by getting the gist without having to read the full original text.

#5: So what are our deliverables?
Well first of all we have a Geo Location database, what is a geo-location database? In this case its a database which can hold the locations of geographical entities and relationships between them. For example storing the location of a department, or a pub etc
You'll hear the the term LBS more and more in the coming years as its fast becoming a buzz word in mobile computing.
So what this means is that we can create services which are relevant to the user's current location, for example "finding the route to my next lecture" or "which library is nearest, which also has this book I want?"
Next we have demonstration mobile applications, i.e. services we can provide which would be useful to people on the move. e.g. give me a list of Oxford (or x university) Podcasts and let me download one
And lastly we are to provide national guidelines on integration of mobile devices into higher/further educational institutes.

#16: What I mean is in the past, if you were to support some mobile devices, you generally spoke of making sure an institution’s email system worked on a certain type of phone.
This is becoming less and less of a problem, as manufacturers have finally realised that everyone would like access to this sort of tech without being tied to a large organisation. To this extent, most major
#17: When I say “ish”. I mean not out-of-the-box.
But the point is that if we looked at this list last year, we would have had Windows Mobile and Blackberry.
