Bridging the gaps towards structured mobile SOA

As the principle of service-orientation is gaining ground in a significant number of emerging solutions, the definition of standards coupled with the appearance of new architectures bring a new era in software development. New technologies enable the usage and composition of services in mobile environments, such as PDAs or common cell phones, thus paving the way for "mobile SOA". However, the lack of middleware and technical solutions and the limitation of SOA appliance only within enterprise systems have forced mobile SOA to remain primitive. Mobile services are being rather used with mashup techniques.
