A special focus is given to the idea that innovative uses of mobile and wireless technologies enhance the learners' scientific experience. Specific contributions include the creation of new applications to support interoperability between different mobile devices, thus to provide \"glue\" between different learning situations. We describe a number of educational scenarios as well as the technologies and the architectural principles behind them.}, language = {en} }
