Abstract

The rising penetration of smartphones enables new mobile services and business models. A huge number of different operating systems, available functionalities, open questions regarding revenue sources and streams, legal issues, as well as a lack of knowledge in designing mobile user experiences call for a holistic product development process in this domain. This paper describes a five-step product development process for mobile software and services encompassing organizational, business and technical issues and reports on the practical experiences made in a real-life project.
