The mobile devices related industries are subject to rapid change, driven by technological advances and dynamic consumer behaviour. Hence, the understanding of the mobile devices markets is an important step in the analysis phase of mobile applications development. In this paper, a brief description of the different markets is introduced followed by an analysis of the main features of the markets leaders' devices which are important in the development process of mobile web applications. Finally, approaches are proposed to deal with the mobile devices diversity.
In 2000 the iSign project started as a virtual web-based laboratory for students of study program electrical engineering. Continuous development in the last years led to a heterogeneous learning environment offering learning material, adaptive user settings and access to a simulation tool. Access is available via web and wireless devices such as PCs, Laptops, PDAs, smartphones and mobile phones. Our attempt to adapt the content to the user's needs and the currently used device led us to a XML based data structure. This report shows our research results about content adaptation based on XML data. The two main aspects for that process are: the device capabilities and the adaptation methods using XML data.
