Emotionally loaded mobile multimedia messaging

Abstract

Mobile messaging is an increasingly important way of social interaction as people use their mobile phones for communicating with each other with textual and multimedia messages. Often with these messaging systems people have the need to communicate their own emotions or facilitate a given emotion in the receiver of their message. This paper will describe an information personalization system that may facilitate emotional communication especially in mobile multimedia messaging systems, thereby making the communication "emotionally loaded". © IFIP International Federation for Information Processing 2004.
