INV311 Save Time, Save Money, Make Decisions Socially

Abstract: Have you ever handled an important decision through email, only to waste time later trying to track it down? Or how about searching for that decision made during an Instant Messaging chat?

INV312 Mobile Collaboration Usage Patterns - Don't Leave Social Software At The Office

Abstract: Being connected, whether at work or home, is becoming a way of life.

information that drive professional and business value. IBM Collaboration Solutions (ICS) provides mobile models that fit many needs and many devices.
