The National Science Foundation has pledged $400,000 over five years to fund research into mobile application management at Williams College in Williamstown, Mass. The Mobile Application Management project is led by Jeannie Albrecht, an assistant professor of computer science who has background working on the GENI research network, and will involve creation of a software toolkit that could help mobile apps developers better deal with everything from device configuration to tracking errors. Albrecht will look to exploit the predictable ways humans interact to help boost mobile application stability, according to Williams.
