Abstract

M-Commerce applications are E-Commerce applications having at least at one end a mobile terminal. Therefore M-Commerce applications share a number of properties with E-Commerce applications while adding additional burdens on the application developer. In this paper we present a conceptual model of an application framework that provides services at the core of M-Commerce applications. We will also present an implementation of this framework and discuss the properties of the information processing involved.
