Description Although the importance of mobile computing is gradually being recognized, mobile computing technology development and adoption have not been clearly realized. This paper focuses on the technology planning strategy for organizations that have an interest in developing or adopting mobile computing technology. By using scenario analysis, a technology planning strategy is constructed. In this study, thirty mobile computing technologies are classified into six groups, and the importance and risk factors of these technologies are then evaluated under two possible scenarios. The main research findings include the discovery that most mobile computing software technologies are rated high to medium in importance and low risk in both scenarios, and that scenario changes will have less impact on mobile computing devices and on mobile computing software technologies. These results provide a reference for organizations interested in developing or adopting mobile computing technology.To cite this document: Wei-Hsiu Weng and Woo-Tsong Lin, "A mobile computing technology foresight study with scenario planning approach", International Journal of Electronic Commerce Studies, Vol.6, No.2, pp.223-232, 2015.Permanent link to this document: http://dx.doi.org/10.7903/ijecs.1242
