Making mobile phones capable of consuming Web services over wireless networks is a challenging task because of the different issues to be addressed and the limited resources of mobile devices. In this paper, we focus on the issue of how to perform dynamic discovery and invocation of Web services from mobile phones when a J2ME wireless middleware is used. In order to solve the limitations of the...

Existing Spatial OLAP (SOLAP) applications are targeted towards desktop computer environments. In order to enable geospatial decision support in mobility contexts, SOLAP requires some modifications. This paper describes a solution, based on service-oriented architectures and Web services technologies, designed to adapt SOLAP data cubes to the requirements and constraints encountered in mobile c...

The vision of a mobile Web in which the computing environment will be composed of various devices that are carried by different users as they go through their daily routine might soon become a reality. In this context, Web services and the Semantic Web are already recognized as important building blocks. On the other hand, so far only little work has been done to support the discovery and selec...

The combination of mobile and Grid computing enables high performance Grid access through resource-limited mobile devices. Many challenges require to be addressed before vision of building the bridge between Grid and mobile computing field is realized. One of the essential challenges is that mobile devices need to locate and select appropriate Grid services in an automatic and flexible way. How...

QoS prediction plays an important role in Web service recommendation. Many existing Web service QoS prediction approaches are highly accurate and useful in Internet environments. However, the QoS data of Web service in mobile Internet is notably more volatile, which makes these approaches fail in making accurate QoS predictions of Web services. In this paper, by weakening the volatility of QoS ...

Various projects have looked into the development of courseware for mobile devices. Examples are the four major projects in mobile learning funded by the European Commission in Brussels. In these projects, mobile learninig courseware was created using Microsoft Reader Work; installing a web-authoring tool like Micromedia dreamweaver MX version 1.0 and installing a desktop browser that has page ...

Rapid growth in Internet (Web) applications and usage of mobile in telecommunication is present trends in communication. In Web 2.0 web services architecture is become versatile tool for enterprise solutions in distributed environment systems. To provide an enterprise solution it is not possible to get professional solution at one place. Hence we need to integrate different web services to prov...

The paper presents an application using a purpose-created web service that is consumed in a multi-channel environment. The service clients span over the common web interface, a JAVA-enabled GSM 2.5G mobile phone, and a Microsoft® Windows® application. The web service provides basic message passing functionality.
