Future Mobile Learning

Abstract

Mobile computing requires new challenges and an approach for solving them by developing information systems. A number of alternative approaches to mobile computing access have emerged during the last two decades. Given the diverse nature of the mobile domain in its entirety, it is obvious that no single technique will be suitable in all circumstances. In the field of architecture solutions, the prominent approach is service oriented. Indeed mobile environments are intrinsically asynchronous, distributed and based on services where one component can supply to whichever other entity on the web can be interested into. We propose a system based on mobile devices and distributed. The web-based architecture allows to query, retrieve, correlate and display heterogeneous informative contents taken from legacy enterprise applications. The enterprise application receives rough data from physical sensors geographically spread around. Design solution will cover only the client application running on the user’s mobile device and the application business logic level, while no consideration will be made about enterprise application architectures, types of DBMS used and types and configuration of physical devices. The most appropriate architectural models in this context are: distributed, agent-based, service-oriented, component-based.
