Scheme for Client-Side Scripting in Mobile Web Browsing or AJAX-Like Behavior Without Javascript

Ray Rischpater · 2006

I present an implementation of Scheme embedded within a Web browser for wireless terminals. Based on a port of TinyScheme integrated with RocketBrowser, an XHTML-MP browser running on Qualcomm BREW-enabled handsets. In addition to a comparison of the resulting script capabilities, I present the changes required to bring TinyScheme to Qualcomm BREW, including adding support for BREW components as TinyScheme data types. The resulting application supports the same kinds of dynamic client-side scripted behavior as a traditional Javascript-enabled Web browser in environments too memory constrained for a Javascript implementation.
