MobileSens: A framework of behavior logger on Andriod mobile device

Abstract

To provide a better service, it is important to understand user's behavior on mobile device. In this paper, we propose a framework for logging, MobileSens, to record users' operations on Andriod mobile device, including smart phone and pad. The operations include turning on screen, sending messages, and browsing the web, etc. This system uploads the data to server via GPRS(General Packet Radio Service) for further analysis. MobileSens monitors system events, and identifies any event that related to the user behavior. Recording the usage information could help us understand the user's intention and mental status, thus refine the user interface, then make these mobile devices serve people better.
