Mobile Enterprise A Case Study of Enterprise Service Integration
Satish Narayana Srirama, Matthias Jarke · 2009
A mobile enterprise can be established in a cellular network by participating mobile hosts, which provide Web services from smart phones, and their clients. Mobile hosts enable seamless integration of user-specific services to the enterprise, by following the Web service interfaces and standards, also on the radio link. Moreover, services provided by the mobile host can be integrated with larger enterprise services, bringing added value to the mobile services. However, establishing such a mobile enterprise poses several technical challenges, like the quality of service (QoS) and discovery aspects, for the network and as well as for mobile phone users. The paper summarizes the challenges and research in this domain, along with a case study where the results have been applied. The study and the results are of significant value in the enterprise service integration domain.
