Mobile computing
Mobile computing enables people to work from non-fixed locations using a variety
of portable computing devices such as PDAs, laptops, notebooks and mobile
phones. The ability to send and receive data while on the move allows users to
access information and communicate with systems and other users in real-time,
for example:
- Mobile workers are increasingly using handheld technology in the field to download and capture information, and synchronise with their back-office applications such as SAP or Oracle
- Managers can monitor their assets and make
key decisions from anywhere in the world.
Mobile computing affords a number of
benefits that improve business efficiency:
- reduced administration costs
- zero
errors as a result of re-keying data
- up-to-date information in back-office
applications
- no paperwork
- automated tracking and proof of attendance
