Inhaltsangabe

The book supports the developers of services and applications for mobile phones, PDAs and smart phones. This new emerging domain is characterized by a very fast pace of change in the underlying technology, exposing products and applications to a constant risk of obsolescence. The relative youth of this field means that knowledge is comparatively limited.

The book identifies an approach to mitigate the above risks by focusing on:

• The development process
• The underlying technology and its effects on connectivity
• Software architectures

Developing Services for the Wireless Internet offers state-of-the-art technological knowledge and practical know-how to both practitioners – project managers, software architects and designers, process engineers and quality assurance workers, as well as academics and researchers looking to broaden their theoretical outlook. This book is an essential tool for all working in this field.

Über diesen Titel

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Accessing Internet services and applications through mobile wireless devices is already a reality for some people, and is just around the corner for most others. However, the success of the wireless Internet has to be fuelled by the availability of wireless-specific data services and applications in order to fully exploit its business potential and to provide actual return on investment.

This book is for developers of wireless Internet services. It addresses the technical issues that can get in the way of the production of a successful service: variability of terminals, unstable technology, incomplete testing environment, variable bandwidth and quality of service. Useful techniques and methods when handing these issues are proposed using two case studies: a mobile game and a mobile trading service.

Dr. Maurizio Morisio is associate professor of Software Engineering at Politecnico di Torino, Italy.
