5
Awad –Electronic Commerce 2/e © 2004 Pearson Prentice Hall 5 What Is M-Commerce? M-commerce is the transmission of user data without wires It also refers to business transactions and payments conducted in a non-PC-based environment The main categories are: – Information based Find info – Transaction services Do something – Location-centric Based on where or when
6
Awad –Electronic Commerce 2/e © 2004 Pearson Prentice Hall 6 Why Wireless? The wireless Web is a technological frontier, open and growing. It traces its roots to the invention of the radio back in 1894 Wireless networking makes it possible to connect two or more computers without the bulky cables, giving the benefits of a network with little or no labor
7
Awad –Electronic Commerce 2/e © 2004 Pearson Prentice Hall 7 Why Wireless? (cont.) The whole wireless initiative is launching a new battle against time The focus is on anywhere The US is behind Japan and Finland –Gives us existing models to study

Awad –Electronic Commerce 2/e © 2004 Pearson Prentice Hall 40 How WAP works?
41
Awad –Electronic Commerce 2/e © 2004 Pearson Prentice Hall 41 WAP Benefits Most WAP benefits are reflected in wireless applications, which reduce the reaction time of mobile professionals Because of greater mobility and instant access to critical information, productivity can be increased dramatically from anywhere at any time
42
Awad –Electronic Commerce 2/e © 2004 Pearson Prentice Hall 42 WAP Limitations Low-power Central processing units Small screens with questionable clarity Limited device memory Small keypads and no mouse Questionable connections for reliability High latency before making the connections.
43
Awad –Electronic Commerce 2/e © 2004 Pearson Prentice Hall 43 Implications for Management Implementing wireless infrastructure requires careful steps, which include: –Evaluating corporate and wireless needs –Sending out an RFP, requesting a demo of the proposed wireless system –Installing and testing the system –Training employees, and ensuring ongoing maintenance
