Report of the 2013 ICSE 1st International Workshop on Engineering Mobile-enabled Systems (MOBS 2013)

摘要

An initial assembly of mobile software researchers and practitioners was held in May of 2013. There were 21 attendees, a keynote speaker, and eight papers. This paper is a summary report of that meeting. A second meeting (MOBS 2014) is in the works as part of ICSE 2014 in Hyderabad, India.At the meeting, presentations were divided into three topics: testing and quality assurance, security and privacy, and process. After the presentations, attendees were invited to nominate their favorite challenges in mobile-enabled systems. Consensus was reached on three major categories: quality assurance, interoperability, and architecture and design. Breakout groups then met to discuss each of these topics independently, and these discussions are summarized in the paper.
