The expected future evolution of mobile and wireless communication
technologies will enable a whole new generation of
mass-market-scale ubiquitous services and applications. The
challenge now is to research and develop applications and services
addressing the true needs of the end-users, and to provide engaging
and sustaining added value to them.
Enabling Technologies for Mobile Services takes a
comprehensive approach on these challenges and provides practical
guidelines on building new, innovative applications and services.
It shares knowledge gained from a collaborative research project
where the methods and technologies were applied and utilised.
This book is ideal for professionals working with enabling
technologies and service architecture in companies. It will also be
of interest to academics and students studying
applications/services, enabling technologies and service
architectures at the universities and to anyone interested in the
general issues surrounding mobile technology.
