The astounding growth in cell phone and personal digital assistants (PDAs) has resulted in a new platform for computing engineering. Accordingly, a number of situations concerning business and dealer operations can be well managed with the use of such mobile devices or a combination of them. On the other hand, some software architectures like the Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) represent an excelle...

Due to the large variation in capabilities of mobile devices and the lack of true standards, it is hard to develop applications for the mobile environment that will behave similar on all devices and in different environments. This article introduces the concept of a Dynamic Evaluation Framework that uses several different implementations for one specific application. The performance of each imp...

Advancements in wireless technologies have made it possible to build wireless enterprise applications. These applications will give great impact in the workflow, work efficiency, and user convenience, which will result in increasing a company’s revenue. Enterprise applications calls for challenging requirements such as two-way data transfer, complex business logic, multiple users, and the abili...

Java paradigm to object oriented programming, memory management and secure management of complex system design make is popular for desktop applications. It is true for embedded system, todays embedded system extend the complexity of system design with timing and deployment constraints. J2ME is considerably used in small embedded device, its Connected Limited Device Configuration is used for dev...

Due to the radical changing of the global economy, a more precise stock valuation helps providing important judgment principles to decision-makers and investors. With the advent of the third-generation (3G) or future forth-generation (4G) Internet, the mobile commerce (MCommerce) will become increasingly important. In addition, the mobile stock investment decision support system attracts great ...

One of the main objectives in this paper is to investigate how to manipulate the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) message and place security functions in the header of SOAP message. Here, we will present the design and implementation of web service security application on Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) based mobile devices. Basically this prototyping includes two-stage approach. In the first s...

This paper describes how location-based push-services can be realized on mobile devices. Such services allow to automatically deliver locationrelevant information to mobile users, thus enabling new application scenarios. The paper presents examples of these new application scenarios and introduces a generic software architecture, which allows to integrate arbitrary ways of tracking the user’s l...

This paper describes software tools used to create java applications for performing music using mobile phones. The tools provide a means for composers working in the Pure Data composition environment to design and audition performances using ensembles of mobile phones. These tools were developed as part of a larger project motivated by the desire to allow large groups of non-expert players to p...

Most Internet technologies are designed for desktop and large computers running on reliable networks with relatively high bandwidth. Hand-held wireless devices, on the other hand, have a more constrained computing environment. They tend to have less memory, less powerful CPUs, different input devices, and smaller displays. The Wireless Application Protocol (or WAP), which is a specification dev...

This paper introduces the field of pervasive media, the use of pervasive computing to deliver applications and services into peoples’ lives, and the problems of creating and distributing pervasive media applications to mobile phones. It determines the requirements of a development platform for pervasive media applications through analysis of a range of pervasive media applications, including ga...
