The 7th International Symposium on Web and Mobile Information Services
Singapore, 22-25 March 2011
In conjunction with the 25th AINA 2011
Advances in the Web and mobile technologies offer new and exciting
services to users in various domains such as e-business, healthcare,
entertainment, and scientific activities. Various organizations,
academic institutions and industries are putting enormous efforts and
resources in the research and development of the Web and mobile
technologies through the development of new initiatives and
technologies. For instance, W3C Mobile Web Initiative aims to provide
mobile devices with access to the vast information available on the Web
and to enable information services to be adapted to the needs of users
and the characteristics of mobile devices.
With the advances in mobile technologies, Web also gets richer in its
contents and usability. In addition to its widespread usability in the
e-commerce, education, and media, it has established its roots in
exchanging and sharing information in social communities. For example,
user-generated contents in the social networks have transformed the Web
into a new era or the Web2.0 - these contents comprise a wealth of
information often involving multimedia data such as audio, video,
pictures and blogs.
These new developments however introduce many new challenging problems
to researchers. One of the major issues is to deal with the resource
scarcity in mobile environment. Though mobile devices and wireless
networks are improving their resources, they are still far behind the
wired networks and desktop PCs in terms of bandwidth, memory, processing
speed and battery powers. There are still various unresolved issues in the web and mobile
services. For example, users want mobile devices to react to the changes
in locations, context, contents and variation in network bandwidth while
accessing Web contents.
