MOBILECOMPUTINGPRINCIPLES

Written to address technical concerns that mobile developers face regardless of the platform (J2ME, WAP, Windows CE, etc.), this book explores the differences between mobile and stationary applications and the architectural and software development concepts needed to build a mobile application. Using UML as a tool, Reza B'Far guides the developer through the development process, showing how to document the design and implementation of the application. He focuses on general concepts while using platforms as examples or as possible tools. After introducing UML, XML, and the derivative tools necessary for developing mobile software applications, B'Far shows how to build user interfaces for mobile applications. He covers location sensitivity, wireless connectivity, mobile agents, data synchronization, security, and push-based technologies and finally discusses the practical issues of mobile application development including the development cycle for mobile applications, testing mobile applications, and architectural con- cerns. These are illustrated with a case study. Voice Genesis and Acting CTO of Semantic Messaging Systems Inc. His company, well as Fortune 500 companies. Early in his career, he worked for Weyerhaueser Company, Parr & Associates Inc., and the National Oceanic Research Department of NASA. He has spent the past ten years working for Noor Electrical Engineering, Virtual Mortgage Network, AdForce Inc., eBuilt Inc., and Data Trace Corporation. He is currently an independent contractor working with a variety of companies as an architect and/or CTO, including some in the mobile arena. i
