Topic Topic advisor Initial readings Description Student
Store and Share in Your Friend Cloud (Hawaii) Lei Jiao [3] Imagining that you can store your photos and videos remotely on phones of your trusted friends when your own phone is short of storage, and also imagining that you can make files on your phone accessible to your friends by only marking these files as "share", in this project, you are expected to develop such an application to enable Windows Phones of your own and your friends to form a network of shared storage by leveraging various cloud services (e.g., Relay and Rendezvous Services) from Microsoft. This application can be further enhanced by adding some location-based functionalities.
A Cloud-Enabled Mobile Content-Based Image Retrieval Application (Hawaii) Jiachen Chen [4] The team will develop a cloud-enabled Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) application for Windows Mobile platforms using the cloud as corpus rather than a local database. The application will have mobile interfaces which allow Windows Mobile users to access such service. Users can use their Windows Live ID to set up some preferences (such as preferred image size, search domain, etc) associated with the ID.
A Mobile Socially-Aware Tour Guide Application (Hawaii) Jiachen Chen [5] The team will develop an application which allows users to photograph/speak/input the name of a tour attraction and then invoke the cloud OCR/speak-to-text services and search engines to discover and share the information about this attraction. Users can write on the electronic-wall created for the attraction to share information. Users can also invite people who also visited the same attraction to be friends, get other people's comments or leave their own ones on this attraction, and recommend this attraction to other people.
Mobile effects in online social networks Konglin Zhu [6] Evaluating the influence of mobile phone in online social networks, including social graph analysis. Analysize the offline social network data and compare the difference of mobile effects in such two scenarios.
A Location Based Community Organizer (Hawaii) David Koll [7][8] The team will develop a location based community organizer, similar to Facebook places. The idea is to share your location and activity with communities within your social contacts. If two members of a community are close to each other with regards to their location, the application will trigger events, which allow setting up meeting points, sharing contents (e.g., ratings for nearby places), etc.
