Want to see how Surface can be combined with location-based services and social software? Attend this session to see how a research project team at the University of Linz, Austria succeeded in developing a cool application for university students. The location-based service enables the students to improve communication and learning. It also supports planning of academic life at the university. As an extension to the application, which was developed in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), there is also one developed for Surface. To see the challenges we faced and how we developed this great project, join this session!
