Thus, all contributors to society, whether young or old members, can use these mobileapps. The use of these apps eases our daily lives, and all customers who need any type of service can accessit easily, comfortably, and efficiently through mobile apps. Particularly, Saudi Arabia greatly depends on digitalservices to assist people and visitors. Such mobile devices are used in organizing daily work schedules and services,particularly during two large occasions, Umrah and Hajj. However, pilgrims encounter mobile app issues such asslowness, conflict, unreliability, or user-unfriendliness. Pilgrims comment on these issues on mobile app platformsthrough reviews of their experiences with these digital services. Scholars have made several attempts to solve suchmobile issues by reporting bugs or non-functional requirements by utilizing user comments.However, solving suchissues is a great challenge, and the issues still exist. Therefore, this study aims to propose a hybrid deep learningmodel to classify and predict mobile app software issues encountered by millions of pilgrims during the Hajj andUmrah periods from the user perspective. Firstly, a dataset was constructed using user-generated comments fromrelevant mobile apps using natural language processing methods, including information extraction, the annotationprocess, and pre-processing steps, considering a multi-class classification problem. Then, several experimentswere conducted using common machine learning classifiers, Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Long Short-TermMemory (LSTM), and Convolutional Neural Network Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) architectures, toexamine the performance of the proposed model. Results show 96% in F1-score and accuracy, and the proposedmodel outperformed the mentioned models.展开更多

Data analysis of this study can be divided into two stages. In the first stage, a descriptive statistical analysis was conducted based on a sample of 612 respondents. In the second stage, the correlation among content originality, user experience and satisfaction was analyzed based on a sample of 377 mobile news apps users. Findings: Results of the first stage showed that social media and mobile news apps were the most important tools for users to access news, and different types of media were playing complementary roles in information transmission. Users held a positive attitude toward their mobile news reading experience and they described news they read on mobile apps with such words as "interesting", "instant", "positive", "profound", and "ironic". Results of the second stage confirmed our hypothesis that content originality and user experience both had positive impacts on user satisfaction.Research limitations: The questionnaires were distributed entirely online, so the sample may not be representative of the general population being studied and thus undermine the reliability and generalization of the findings to some extent. Moreover, this study adopted only one method(survey) and more methods such as interviews can be used to improve the accuracy of the results.Practical implications: The findings of this study can not only provide insights into a better understanding of users’ mobile reading behavior, but also help mobile information service providers attract more users.Originality/value: This is one of the first studies to explore the effects of content originality and user experience on online news readers’ satisfaction with the mobile apps service.展开更多

Apps have altered health services from patient’s health monitoring to specialist’s appointments and consultations from specialized health facilities. It can be argued that a healthy society can bring forth sustainable economic development to its full potential while an unhealthy society cannot. However, a free movement of people, labour and right to residence which was built across East Africa (EA) borders enabled Tanzania and Kenya borders to have enormous interactions. Subsequently, increase the risk of highly communicable diseases such as Tuberculosis and Sexually transmitted infections in such a way that medical attention is unavoidable along the borders. Statistically, Android Operating System (OS) owns 83% of Africa’s mobile OS market. In addition, 25,794,560 internet users reported by Tanzania Communications Regulatory Authority (TCRA) together with the 22.86 million internet users provided by Kenya Digital which is equivalent to 46% and 43% of internet penetration in year 2020, disclose the need for Android mobile application for mapping health facilities both online and offline using Google map API, which will solve residents’ need to healthcare services on the presence or shortage of internet connections;using either Swahili or English language via Smartphone devices. The App incorporates Monitoring and Evaluation (M & E) tool for tracking application usage which will ease Admin’s task to generate daily and monthly reports in Excel and Comma-Separated Values (CSV) formats. The developed system received positive feedback from EA citizens and residents in the Arusha region and Namanga border crossing where 90.2% of the system evaluation conducted between Dec 2020 and Apr 2021 agreed upon App usage.展开更多

The purpose of this research is to have a better understanding of some characteristics of the good Apps on Apple Store so Apps makers can potentially focus on these traits to maximize their profit. The data for this research is collected from kaggle.com, and originally collected from iTunes Search API, according to the abstract of the data. Four different attributes contribute directly toward an App’s user rating: rating_count_tot, rating_count_ver, user_rating and user_rating_ver. The relationship between Apps receiving higher ratings and Apps receiving lower ratings is analyzed using Exploratory Data Analysis and Data Science technique “clustering” on their numerical attributes. Apps, which are represented as a data point, with similar characteristics in rating are classified as belonging to the same cluster, while common characteristics of all Apps in the same clusters are the determining traits of Apps for that cluster. Both techniques are achieved using Google Colab and libraries including pandas, numpy, seaborn, and matplotlib. The data reveals direct correlation from number of devices supported and languages supported to user rating and inverse correlation from size and price of the App to user rating. In conclusion, free small Apps that many different types of users are able to use are generally well rated by most users, according to the data.展开更多

文摘Different types of pandemics that have appeared from time to time have changed many aspects of daily life.Some governments encourage their citizens to use certain applications to help control the spread of disease and to deliver other services during lockdown.The Saudi government has launched several mobile apps to control the pandemic and have made these apps available through Google Play and the app store.A huge number of reviews are written daily by users to express their opinions,which include significant information to improve these applications.The manual processing and extracting of information from users’reviews is an extremely difficult and time-consuming task.Therefore,the use of intelligent methods is necessary to analyse users’reviews and extract issues that can help in improving these apps.This research aims to support the efforts made by the Saudi government for its citizens and residents by analysing the opinions of people in Saudi Arabia that can be found as reviews on Google Play and the app store using sentiment analysis and machine learning methods.To the best of our knowledge,this is the first study to explore users’opinions about governmental apps in Saudi Arabia.The findings of this analysis will help government officers make the right decisions to improve the quality of the provided services and help application developers improve these applications by fixing potential issues that cannot be identified during application testing phases.A new dataset used for this research includes 8000 user reviews gathered from social media,Google Play and the app store.Different methods are applied to the dataset,and the results show that the k nearest neighbourhood(KNN)method generates the highest accuracy compared to other implemented methods.
文摘To meet the needs of today’s library users,institutions are developing library mobile apps(LMAs),as their libraries are increasingly intelligent and rely on deep learning.This paper explores the influencing factors and differences in the perception of LMAs at different time points after a user has downloaded an LMA.A research model was constructed based on the technology acceptance model.A questionnaire was designed and distributed twice to LMA users with an interval of three months to collect dynamic data.The analysis was based on structural equation modeling.The empirical results show that the perceived ease of use,the perceived usefulness,the social influence,and the facilitating conditions affected the users’behavioral intention,but their impacts were different at different times.As the usage time increases,the technology acceptance model is still universal for understanding the user perception of LMA.In addition,two extended variables(social impact and convenience)also affect the user’s behavior intention.User behavior is dynamic and changed over time.This study is important both theoretically and practically,as the results could be used to improve the service quality of LMAs and reduce the loss rate of users.Its findings may help the designers and developers of LMAs to optimize them from the perspective of a user and improve the service experience by providing a deeper understanding of the adoption behavior of information systems by LMA users.
文摘Mobile robot has been one of the researches focuses in this era due to the demands in automation.Many industry players have been using mobile robot in their industrial plant for the purpose of reducing manual labour as well as ensuring more efficient and systematic process.The mobile robot for industrial usage is typically called as Automated Guided Vehicle(AGV).The advances in the navigation technology allows the AGV to be used for many tasks such as for carrying load to pre-determined locations sent from mobile app,stock management and pallet handling.More recently,the concept of Industry 4.0 has been widely practiced in the industries,where important process data are exchange over the internet for an improved management.This paper will therefore discuss the development of Internet of Things(IoT)bases mobile robot for AGV application.In this project a mobile robot platform is designed and fabricated.The robot is controlled to navigate from one location to another using line following mechanism.Mobile App is designed to communicate with the robot through the Internet of Things(IoT).RFID tags are used to identify the locations predetermined by user.The results show that the prototype is able to follow line and go to any location that was preregistered from the App through the IoT.The mobile robot is also able to avoid collision and any obstacles that exist on its way to perform any task inside the workplace.

文摘Comprehensive English is a professional basic course for English majors,with the most class hours and the highest credits.It can be said to be the most important course in English majors.However,the procedural assessment in the previous comprehensive English assessment system,that is,the usual assessment,was largely determined based on the subjective impression of teachers.However,with the emergence of various English learning apps,students’learning methods and content have changed a lot.With major changes,the previous assessment system has not been able to play its due role.Designing a reasonable comprehensive English assessment system based on mobile APP is the unshirkable responsibility of comprehensive English teachers.Carefully and reasonably designed comprehensive English assessment system can promote students to improve learning efficiency,reduce classroom lecture time,improve teaching effect,and play a vital role in cultivating qualified English professionals.
文摘Objective:Explore the application of mobile phone APP in the follow-up management of hospital in the information age,to build a harmonious doctor-patient relationship,improve the effective follow-up rate and promote the rehabilitation of patients.Methods:Compare and analyze the traditional telephone follow-up mode and the mode of mobile phone APP with telephone follow-ups.Results:In 2016,with telephone follow-ups only,the effective rate was 91.3%,the patient satisfaction rate was 92.6%.In 2017,besides telephone follow-ups,we used mobile phone APP,the effective follow-up rate got up to 96.2%,the satisfaction rate of patients got up to 98.1%.Conclusion:Compared with the traditional follow-up model,mobile phone APP follow-up model can improve the clinical follow-up service and the compliance of patients,help to reduce failures of follow-up.With mobile phone APP,it’s much more convenient and effective for doctors to communicate with patients,and it is better for the rehabilitation of patients with disease.
文摘Mobile phone has become the most important daily device in modern society since 21 stcentury. What's more, it will continue to play a significant role in people's daily life in the foreseeable near future. An outstanding interface design can not only bring convenience to users, but also strengthen users' experience feelings and give customers more fun and joy. This paper is mainly about how to use semiotic theory in the application of phone interface design. By analyzing basic elements of signal transmission as well as"Triplet Theory"in semiotics, and practicing every single element in the design, the value of semiotics application can be clearly shown. That is, to help interface designer understand customers better and fulfill their needs more accurately and to accomplish fantastic designs in mobile interface.
