1 Condor user interfaces for mobile terminals Javier Vales Alonso (jvales@delta.ait.uvigo.es) Javier González Castaño (javier@ait.uvigo.es) Universidad de Vigo (Spain)

2 Outline Goals Mobile internet & wireless technologies Portable devices and their hierarchy Web system architecture WAP system architecture Examples Conclusions & future work

3 Goals Integrate Condor in the mobile internet world. Allow different levels of user accessibility. Or: ¿what is missing in Condor to face the mobile Internet?

4 Mobile Internet Internet technologies and services for mobile devices. Mobile-Internet is driven by the convergence of: –Wireless technologies –Portable devices

5 Wireless technologies They will enable easy interconnection of a wide range of portable computing devices. Present: 2G systems (GSM, IS-95). Incoming: Wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11), Bluetooth, HomeRF, LMDS, 3G systems (UMTS).

6 Mobile devices (Wireless) laptops (first mobile solution) PDAs (Palm pilot, pocketPC,...): user interface with limited capabilities. Handwriting recognition. WAP-enabled mobile phones: user interface even more limited. Next: Wearable computers (less comfortable, need goggles). Speech recognition.

7 Condor + Usability Check queue status Remove, hold & release jobs Submit new jobs Program tuning Check queue status Remove, hold & release jobs Submit new jobs Alarm on job finish Program tuning: Final-stage programming utility Small modifications in source code Program generation

8 Layer implementation PDA layer is implemented as a web service. This has many advantages: Familiar interface. WAP system implementation is a subset of PDA system implementation (compatibility & reutilization) Almost all PDAs have web browsers (platform independence) WAP layer uses WML browsers.

15 Web system overview Program tuning

16 Conclusions & future work Definition of usability-hierarchy for mobile internet devices Assumption: Cell phone/PDA units everywhere Remote execution of most functions Other paradigms: Interface servers (X-Windows, Citrix)?
