Abstract
Recent proliferation of mobile devices has made it important to provide automatic support for usability evaluation when people interact with mobile applications. In this paper, we discuss some specific aspects that need to be considered in remote usability of mobile Web applications, and introduce a novel environment that aims to address such issues.
