Abstract :
Large, global enterprises are increasingly faced with the problem of supporting employees that are on the move. Employees need to share business documents, locate expertise and knowledge through distributed searches, access effective subscription/notification mechanisms, and they need any time, anywhere access to the company´s information resources. We address these problems and requirements in the MObile Teamwork Infrastructure for Organizations Networking (MOTION) project and aim to create an advanced information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure for mobile teamwork. We give a brief description of the MOTION peer-to-peer platform for mobile teamwork.
