Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) phones are a growing relevant part of the mobile market, and the number of WAP services
offered is rapidly increasing. Usability is crucial for these services, which must be easily operated on small screens and
keyboards. Unfortunately, there are very few published studies on the evaluation of WAP devices and services on users. This
paper presents a user study that evaluates two important interface design choices for WAP services (implementation of single-choice
selection, and navigation among the different cards of a WAP site), neither of which has been investigated thoroughly in the
literature or in design practice. 相似文献

Electronic commerce continues to see phenomenal growth, but so far most e-commerce development involves wired infrastructures. The authors believe emerging wireless and mobile networks will provide new avenues for growth, creating new opportunities in mobile commerce. According to the GartnerGroup, a market research firm, by 2004 at least 40 percent of consumer-to-business e-commerce will come from smart phones using the wireless application protocol (WAP). Based on a study by the Wireless Data and Computing Service, a division of Strategy Analytics, the annual mobile commerce market may rise to $200 billion by 2004. The authors provide a mobile commerce framework to illustrate potential applications such as mobile inventory management, product location and search, proactive service management, and mobile entertainment. They also describe the wireless user and networking infrastructure, emerging W3C standards, and the open and global WAP specification 相似文献

As smart phones offer more options, driving new applications development, we need to establish appropriate new standards. Here, we review existing related standards, focusing on two missing features that fully autonomous phones will require. The common Java standard for building enterprise class applications is the Java 2 platform, Enterprise Edition. J2EE supports a rich set of APIs, and many vendors provide implementations of those APIs for programming Web services. 相似文献

Much attention is being paid to the services that are accessed via the Internet from mobile phones and PDAs. For such mobile Internet services, the WAP Forum issued the WAP 2.0 standard based on IETF/W3C standards. WAP 2.0 adopted the subset of eXtensible HyperText Markup Language (XHTML) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) standardized by World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), as its markup language. The i‐mode service in Japan was launched in February 1999, and has acquired over 40 million users, as of January 2004. The markup language adopted in the i‐mode service is called i‐mode HTML, and was designed around Compact HTML. To ease the migration from i‐mode HTML to the WAP 2.0 markup language, the functional compatibility of the languages should be assured. To this end, we proposed functions unique to i‐mode HTML to the WAP Forum. The WAP Forum accepted all of our proposals. For making the migration more cost‐effective, software tools that support the transformation of i‐mode HTML content to the WAP 2.0 equivalents must be established. There are two approaches to content transformation: software‐based and rule‐based. Since the software‐based approach has some drawbacks such as a lack of extensibility and a lack of accountability, we have taken the rule‐based approach. We focused on eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformation (XSLT) as the content transformation technique, because XSLT has been standardized by W3C for rule‐based transformation between XML contents. To technically verify the applicability of XSLT for content transformation from i‐mode HTML to the WAP 2.0 markup language, we performed an extensive XSLT transformation experiment using existing i‐mode service contents. In this paper, we describe content transformation using XSLT, overview the content transformation system, and analyze the results of the content transformation experiment.

Web-based solutions and interfaces should be easy, more intuitive, and should also adapt to the natural and cognitive information processing and presentation capabilities of humans. Today, human-controlled multimodal systems with multimodal interfaces are possible. They allow for a more natural and more advanced exchange of information between man and machine. The fusion of web-based solutions with natural modalities is therefore an effective solution for users who would like to access services and web content in a more natural way. This article presents a novel multimodal web platform (MWP) that enables flexible migration from traditionally closed and purpose-oriented multimodal systems to the wider scope offered by web applications. The MWP helps to overcome problems of interoperability, compatibility, and integration that usually accompany migrations from standard (task-oriented) applications to web-based solutions and multiservice networks, thus enabling the enrichment of general web-based user interfaces with several advanced natural modalities in order to communicate and exchange information. The MWP is a system in which all modules are embedded within generic network-based architecture. When using it, the fusion of user front ends with new modalities requires as little intervention to the code of the web application as possible. The fusion is implemented within user front ends and retains the web-application code and its functionalities intact. 相似文献

Mobile commerce is becoming increasingly important in business. Wireless application protocol (WAP) is one of the most widespread technical standards for mobile commerce. Following continuous technical evolution, WAP has now included various new features. However, WAP services continue to struggle for market share. Hence, understanding the adoption of WAP services is increasingly important for enterprises interested in developing mobile commerce. This study aims to: (i) identify the critical factors of WAP services adoption; (ii) explore the relative importance of each factor between WAP adopters and non-adopters; and (iii) examine the causal relationships among variables on WAP services adoption behavior. This study reports empirical test of the adoption of WAP services in Taiwan, based on the theory of planned behavior and innovation diffusion theory. The results indicate that the critical factors influencing the adoption of WAP services include connection speed, service costs, user satisfaction, personal innovativeness, ease of use, peer influence, and facilitating conditions. Some suggestions for subsequent researchers and practitioners seeking to understand WAP services adoption behavior are also provided. 相似文献

A common factor among all the existing distributed, peer-to-peer systems is their lack of genericity. Typically, information-centric services (such as range queries) are deployed ad-hoc onto a specific peer-to-peer overlay. These kinds of solutions make them probably efficient but non-portable to other peer-to-peer infrastructures, and so the services and applications constructed over them. We do believe, instead, that a peer-to-peer-generic solution is feasible. In this paper, we tackle the genericity and portability issue specifically on structured peer-to-peer networks (SPNs).To do so, we introduce a distributed 3-layer architecture, which abstracts applications (on top of the architecture) and the peer-to-peer network currently in use (in the bottom layer). Our middleware appears in the middle layer, which is responsible to address two major challenges: (i) supporting complex, multi-dimensional application data domains and (ii) performing efficiently for a wide variety of information-centric services in the large scale.Broadly speaking, information-centric services are classified as data management (such as range or spatial queries) and content distribution services (like publish/subscribe), and our middleware is an umbrella for all them. Notice that data management services are based on the pull mode (i.e., a user lookups information previously stored in the system), whilst content distribution services obey to a push mode (i.e., the system delivers the information timely to users).The benefits of our approach are clear: (i) Our middleware can be easily deployed over existing SPNs, guaranteeing the portability of a critical mass of services and end-user applications; (ii) Several services can be added to the middleware, which will facilitate the appearance of new synergies; and (iii) our middleware deals with the application data domain transparently to services and applications, including the necessary algorithms for services to be efficiently deployed into our middleware. 相似文献

Mobile Internet browsing using wireless application protocol (WAP) phones has created unique problems of its kind. One of the challenges that consumers faced is that they are only equipped with a small screen for browsing WAP contents. This makes navigating to WAP sites of interest on WAP portals a hassle. WAP portals served as consumers’ gateway to the WAP sites offered by third party content providers. These portals usually organize the list of WAP sites into a multi-level tree hierarchy structure. Often, consumers are required to navigate deep down the tree to access their favorite sites. This paper presents a prototype for making WAP portals adaptive. Such portals reduce time spend by consumers in navigation henceforth more time for content browsing. The system does not require explicit consumers’ input for adaptation but rather, they implicitly track consumers’ navigation activities among WAP sites and use these input to form the basis of consumers’ preferences for adaptation. The methods implemented are adaptive link sorting and navigation shortcuts. The system also takes into account possible drift of consumers’ interests over time and weighted computation is used to achieve adaptation that will be of relevance to consumers at any point of time. Experiments with mobile users have yield promising results. 相似文献

New information processing service structures based on client-server concepts gain growing importance in both scientific and commercial computing because theyprovide a high flexibility with respect to the positioning of building blocks of a distributed application. The price for this flexibility, however, is a more complex system management. The paper discusses the new management requirements in a cooperative computing environment. The management platforms needed in this context must provide appropriate models for cooperation, services for supporting distributed management applications and an information model as a basis for the modeling of resources relevant to system management. The paper presents and evaluates approaches to solutions existing so far in research and development. 相似文献

Growing interest in mobile commerce among users, service providers, content developers, businesses, and researchers has spawned many new applications ncluding location-based services, mobile financial services, multiparty interactive games, and mobile auctions. Most of these applications are designed to be accessible via personal digital assistants or cell phones, but handhelds have limited capabilities and are impractical or dangerous to use while driving. Increased computing and communications power, coupled with advances in wireless networking technology and the explosive growth in wireless local area network (WLAN) deployments, have the potential to enable new m-commerce applications for drivers or passengers in motor vehicles. These applications range from entertainment and business services to diagnostic and safety tools. However, for vehicular m-commerce to become a reality, researchers must address a number of technical challenges. 相似文献

Conventional thinking about mobile methods for accessing the Internet is rapidly changing. The processing power of cell phones is steadily improving, and the wireless network's communication speed is increasing. Once these changes are in place, most mobile applications will give way to a third-generation (3G) cell-phone-based infrastructure. In particular, using 3G cell phones instead of conventional PCs or personal digital assistants (PDAs) will make possible ubiquitous spatial information services. These services let you use a cell phone to easily find nearby hospitals, restaurants, banks, stores, and so on. Moreover, pedestrians will be able to use cell phones to receive navigational guidance services similar to those delivered by vehicle navigation systems. In this article, we introduce real system implementations and field trials to demonstrate the potential of this integrated spatial-information services approach. 相似文献
