Mobile worker support environments

As a response to the recent advances in ICT and especially mobile technologies the European Union project Mobile Worker Support Environments aimed at identifying human-centric scenarios and technologies that enable seamless mobile work in the future. The project focused on 1) mobile work roadmap development, R&D strategy and agenda, 2) domain specific innovation in mobile workspace (e.g. healthcare, manufacturing, construction, rural work, 3) network, communication and dissemination, and 4) societal change.
