Short Paper : Challenges and Novelties while using Mobile Phones as ICT Devices for Indian Masses

Mobile phones have emerged as truly pervasive and affordable Information and Communication Technology (ICT) platform in the last decade. Large penetration of cellular networks and availability of advanced hardware platforms have inspired multiple innovative research opportunities in mobile computing domain. However, most of the research challenges have focused on typical scenarios existing in the developed economies. In this paper, we present research challenges and novelties in mobile computing domain that take account for differences between developing in particular India and developed economies. Our research is based on commonly available mobile platforms, communication cost, differences in user behavior and acceptable societal norms, among others.
