An Architectural Framework for Collaboration of Heterogeneous Communication Devices Using WAP and Mobile Device Augmented(MDA)Gateway Integration
Within the last couple of years, the challenge of displaying collaborative multimedia
information has become very important with the large diversity of communication devices
such as Personal Computers, laptops, notebooks and handheld devices. The shared data
and information may be presented with different views depending on the communication
device used by a particular collaborator. The use of various web tools (HTML, WML etc)
offers some solutions to the problem but if the target application requires more complex
features such as rich multimedia data than is manageable using HTML or WML format,
something else need to be done. In this paper, we propose a framework that integrates WAP
and MDA Gateway to support collaboration among virtual teams and nomadic workers
using heterogeneous communication devices. We then discuss an approach for augmenting
mobile device small screen capabilities with surrounding large screen display device
