Performance of Web Services on Smart Phone Platforms
IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering · 2013
This paper is proposed to investigate Web Services (WSs) performance on nomadic device like the Apple iPod touch.Because of the reduced capabilities of the mobile devices, clients residing in these terminals should be as simple as possible.So, we propose to move part of the business logic to an intermediate service provider.A WS can share a conceptual functionality between various WS, although they could be implemented in different locations and with different characteristics.A WS provider makes the mobile client independent of the implementation details as well as of their availability.A WS basically developed using two methods SOAP and REST.In this paper we measured the performance of these two Web Service's on the mobile device and analyzed which is efficient.
