An investigation into initiatives and standards, aiming to improve the user experience of mobile web applications.

Abstract

The way in which online material is accessed has changed considerably over recent years, due largely to the widespread uptake of mobile devices, capable of online connectivity, such as mobile telephones and PDA’s.  This paper aims to briefly investigate the standards and initiatives aiming to push the user experience of online content (mobile web applications), accessed via mobile devices, to the same level as currently exists with standard web applications accessed via desktop computers.
