There
has been rapid growth in the number of cell phone users worldwide.
Each year, cell phones get smaller and smarter. Mobile phones
are now so sophisticated that they are used for more than
just voice communications. Already, we’ve observed the
convergence of mobile phones and PDAs. Web browsing on a mobile
phone was supposed to be another killer app, but it’s
yet to take off here. The Wireless Application Protocol is
the technology that makes this possible.

The
Wireless Application Protocol
Authors: Steve Mann, Scott Sbihli Publisher: Wiley Computer
Publishing Price: Rs 275 |
If
you are curious about what WAP is all about, or want to know
how your business could benefit from it, this Wiley Tech Brief
book could be the right information source. It also makes
for a handy reference and includes explanations for concepts
that are usually taken for granted in technical books-like
transports & protocols, the OSI Model, etc.
This book presents a steep learning curve. Once you’ve
completed the first chapter, you’ll be familiar with
all the concepts, terminology, acronyms, standards, protocols
and the like.
In the rest of the book, you’ll progress from the history
of WAP to application development. Finally, the authors consider
the future of WAP.
