This talk proposed a computational approach to the concept of mobility and discussed its existing and possible ICT implementations.
Based on different psycho-cognitive human spaces introduced by B. Tversky (Stanford 2004) the mobility is considered as an interaction task, between these spaces and human beings, which has emerged during human evolution and adaptation to the environment. Therefore, different elementary functions, subtending the mobility and proper to different spaces, are identified; these functions, which should be evolvable and suitable for constant human-environment co-evolution, could be integrated in new ICT holistic technological mobility assistance. A state-of-art of some of existing and on-going academic ICT projects, which target the appropriate support of the mobility concept will be provided.
