Abstract

With the introduction of mobile communication technology, users of telecommunication services are able to move freely around while engaged in communication over distance. This is introducing the users of mobile telecommunication services to varying contexts. Based on findings from field studies of highly mobile, and highly communication intensive activities, a contextual communication model is described. This model is enabling selection of communication media, and the selection of interaction modality based on the contextual information of the users.
