Paper Title:
Mobile Shopping Assistant: Integration of Mobile Applications and Web Services
Authors:
Abstract:
The goal of this poster is to describe our implementation of a new
architecture enabling efficient integration between mobile phone
applications and Web Services. Using this architecture, we have
implemented a mobile shopping assistant described further. In order
to build this architecture, we designed an innovative XML
compression mechanism to facilitate data exchange between mobile
phones and Web Services. We also designed a smart connection manager
to control asynchronous communication for all possible channels of a
mobile phone. In addition, we used diverse input modes in order to
extend users' access to Web Services.
