Abstract
Mobile professionals have longed for a true office on wheels because they are productive everywhere except in the place that they spend the most significant amount of time - the vehicle. With traffic congestion ever increasing, the more time the mobile professional is spending in the vehicle. This lack of productivity in the vehicle results in a significant loss of revenue and income for the mobile professional. This paper examines who the mobile professional is, identifies the requirements of the mobile professional, shows the hardware and software architecture for the in-vehicle portion of the mobile office, and identifies the challenges to overcome to create a true mobile office.
