Conference paper on Smart Transport

The following conference paper was presented at the ACIST 2017 conference in Cape Town recently.

This paper was based on data that student Lizalise Myataza collected during her BCom honours degree. The paper looks at the transport-related mobile apps that have been developed in SADC countries and the extent to which they exhibit "smart" features. We propose a framework for evaluating the "smartness" of apps that goes beyond only evaluating technological features and incorporates the human user.
