Abstract
Most office workers today use multiple channels of
communication, including email, cell and desk phones, instant
messaging and SMS/MMS. They send and receive large volumes
of information through these channels. Only some of this
information requires urgent action. While there are many channels
to send and receive information, the availability of these channels
changes depending on the user’s context. User context includes
the activity they are involved in (meetings, classes, conferences
etc), the date, time, and location, the devices they have access to
(smart phones, cell phone, laptops etc), and the mode in which the
devices are available (muted or not). For mobile workers, their
context plays a key role in keeping them in touch with urgent
information.
