Mobile Web Services: Architecture and Implementation


Description: Mobile Web Services create new possibilities for the mobile telecommunications market.  Through mobile Web services, operators can offer new value-added services for their users, spanning PC and mobile devices, explore new business opportunities and increase revenue and customer retention.  This expands the commercial opportunities for developers to further promote their applications and enable solutions that work seamlessly across PC and mobile environments. Customerscan benefit from new integrated services across wired and wireless networks and PC and mobile devices. This allows users the flexibility to use preferred device or mode of communication as best suited to needs and availability and enable a more holistic experience across various devices. This book assists and supports companies in adapting Mobile Web Services-based applications, explaining the key network elements, software components and protocols needed to develop such services.  It explains mobile-specific issues such as intermittent reachability of mobile phones, lack of fixed IP addresses, and how these affect the mobile SOA.  It includes material on the mobile Web Services framework as well as the basic requirements for accessing web services, such as security issues, discussing authentication and Liberty specifications.
