In: Proceedings of the 2009 IEEE 70th Vehicular Technology Conference Fall Pages: 6 Publication: Sep/2009 Inserted or changed in DB:11-11-09 Abstract: The Telecommunication (TelCo) and Information Technology (IT) domains are converging at their intersection to provide vast variety of efficiently accessible services to the consumers. Specially in mobile communication domain, a vitalfactor that can affect the performance of any mobile application is the resource constraint nature of mobile devices with limited processing and storage capacity. On the other hand integration of heterogeneous networks and systems bring influential research challenges.In this paper, we present a concept of REST based Mobile Web Services (MobWS) provisioning and its comparison with a similar SOAP architecture in terms of HTTP payload. The requirements of REST architecture are discussed and URL structures are defined for the interaction with synchronous and asynchronous RESTful MobWS. A resource oriented approach for optimizingHTTP payload is presented and related message structures are discussed. It is shown that the REST based MobWS provisioning when compared to SOAP, offers promising results by significantly reducing the payload. #2__________________________________________________________________________________________ Title: Packet Radio in GSM Author: Decker, P.
