The focus is on understanding the key design and architectural patterns, middleware layering, data presentation, specific technological solutions, and standardization. The author addresses current state of the art systems including Symbian, Java 2 Micro Edition, W3C technologies and many others, and features a chapter on widely deployed middleware systems. Additionally, the book includes a summary of relevant mobile middleware technologies, giving the reader an insight into middleware architecture design and well-known, useful design patterns. Several case studies are included in order to demonstrate how the presented patterns, solutions, and architectures are applied in practice. The case studies pertain to mobile service platforms, mobile XML processing, thin clients, rich clients, and mobile servers. Chapters on Architectures and Platforms, Mobile Messaging, Publish\/Subscribe, Data Synchronization and Security are also included.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides a comprehensive overview of mobile middleware technology\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUnified treatment of three core topical areas: messaging, publish\/subscribe, and data synchronization\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses the role of middleware in the protocol stack\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFocus on both standards and research systems including current state- of-the-art systems such as Symbian, Java 2 Micro Edition, W3C technologies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eContains concrete examples showing the presented architectures and solutions in practice\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes an accompanying website with links to open source software, and other resources\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book serves as an invaluable guide to systems architects, researchers, and developers.
