Abstract

In these days, conducting business requires more and more employees to be mobile. To be efficient, these mobile workers need to access the enterprise applications with their mobile devices at anytime and anywhere. How to efficiently extend the enterprise applications to the mobile devices becomes a challenging task to the enterprise. In this paper, we present our recently developed system for mobilizing enterprise applications. Considering the characteristics of wireless media, our system can dynamically choose the most appropriate communication method and provide the synchronous exactly-once communication semantic. Security is explored by providing data encryption, two-way authentication and a simple tool for managing the access control list. We also develop a mechanism for supporting priority service. Thread pool and object caching are implemented to increase the efficiency. Lastly, our system offers various tools to enhance the development automatism, while still allowing the programming flexibility by providing a rich set of APIs.
