Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As content delivery over wireless devices becomes faster and more secure, it is thought that mobile commerce (m-commerce) will overtake tethered e-commerce as the medium of choice for digital commerce transactions. As well as the obvious effect on financial services (mobile banking), telecommunications, and retail and information services (such as video delivery of sports results) it is also likely to have a profound effect on the way a wide variety of businesses arrange for people to meet and interact. This book explores the theory and practice of both the technical and business domains of m-commerce, particularly wireless networking and mobile commerce applications, as well as discussing the 'what, why and how' of m-commerce. The book starts by covering the theoretical underpinning of the subject, before going on to put the theory into practice, covering the technologies, approaches, applications and design issues. Features Explains the fundamentals of mobile commerce and wireless systems design and implementation. Applications oriented, showing how good systems design leads to efficient and effective m-commerce systems. Balances enthusiasm for the technological capabilities with wider social and political implications through discussion of security and ethical issues. Tutorial approach, with exercises, student activities, short case studies and technical reports to enhance learning. This book is intended for anyone wishing to find out more about the theory and practice of commercially exploiting these exciting and ground-breaking new technologies. About the authors Geoffrey Elliott is Head of Division for Information Systems at London South Bank University. Nigel Phillips worked in the computer industry for 10 years before joining London South Bank University, consulting on the application of complexity theory

Download or read book Mobile Computing written by Tomasz Imielinski and published by Springer. This book was released on 2007-08-26 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid development of wireless digital communication technology has cre ated capabilities that software systems are only beginning to exploit. The falling cost of both communication and of mobile computing devices (laptop computers, hand-held computers, etc. ) is making wireless computing affordable not only to business users but also to consumers. Mobile computing is not a "scaled-down" version of the established and we- studied field of distributed computing. The nature of wireless communication media and the mobility of computers combine to create fundamentally new problems in networking, operating systems, and information systems. Further more, many of the applications envisioned for mobile computing place novel demands on software systems. Although mobile computing is still in its infancy, some basic concepts have been identified and several seminal experimental systems developed. This book includes a set of contributed papers that describe these concepts and sys tems. Other papers describe applications that are currently being deployed and tested. The first chapter offers an introduction to the field of mobile computing, a survey of technical issues, and a summary of the papers that comprise sub sequent chapters. We have chosen to reprint several key papers that appeared previously in conference proceedings. Many of the papers in this book are be ing published here for the first time. Of these new papers, some are expanded versions of papers first presented at the NSF-sponsored Mobidata Workshop on Mobile and Wireless Information Systems, held at Rutgers University on Oct 31 and Nov 1, 1994.
