The advances of new technologies and the convergence of different communication media are changing not only our means and modes of communication with other people, but the notion of connectivity itself. ‘Presence’ awareness is becoming a key issue, facilitated by Instant Messaging applications, mobile phones, wireless handheld devices and location tracking. This report aims to identify the most important issues related to Instant Messaging and Presence enabled applications for wireless devices. Key developments, implementation problems, likely applications and benefits are analysed in this study.

New Media Systems is...
Our New Media Systems research theme aims to show how new media devices, standards, architectures and concepts can change the nature of learning.
Our work involves the development of short life-cycle working prototypes of innovative technologies or concepts that we believe will influence the future of open learning within a 3-5 year timescale. Each new media concept is built into a working prototype of how the innovation may change a target community. The working prototypes are all available (in some form) from this website.
Our prototypes themselves are not designed solely for traditional Open Learning, but include a remit to show how that innovation can and will change learning at all levels and in all forms; in education, at work and play.
