Building on the success of the first edition, "Mobile Messaging
Technologies and Services" offers extensive new and revised
material based upon the latest research and industry developments.
While early implementations targeted person-to-person messaging,
MMS has now evolved to facilitate such requirements as the mass
delivery of time-sensitive messages for content-to-person
messaging. This "Second Edition" exploits the technical maturity of
MMS as it is poised to generate a wealth of new business
opportunities across the mobile communications sector. The author
provides the fundamental technical background required for SMS, EMS
and MMS, and supports this with industry cutting-edge developments.
● Contains a revised section on the fundamentals of MMS,
including an updated section on GPRS to explain current commercial
implementations such as GRX applications.
● Presents the latest developments in MMS standardization,
including the design of synchronized multimedia integration
language (SMIL) presentations, Digital Rights Management (DRM),
transcoding techniques, postcard service and support of advanced
multimedia formats.
● Describes the processes for standardizing telecommunications
services and technologies (3GPP, OMA, GSM Association, IETF and
W3C).
● Provides updated sections on SMS, EMS and heavily revised
coverage of the developments in MMS, including MMS interworking and
the forthcoming MMS version 1.3.
This resource will be invaluable for application developers,
manufacturers, operators and content providers involved in the
design and deployment of messaging services. It will also be of
interest to practitioners involved in the process of standardizing
telecommunications services and technologies. Postgraduate students
and researchers will benefit from having access to state-of-the-art
findings backed by numerous illustrative real-world examples.
Includes a companion website featuring information on relevant
standards, available phones and developers' resources.
