Abstract

Small microfinance institutions (in underdeveloped countries), despite their determination to expand into rural areas, are limited by geographic isolation and high transaction costs. For this, a solution has been proposed to access some features of the enterprise application via Smartphone. This solution is based on a service-oriented architecture in which the main features are developed as web services. The invocation of the methods is performed from a Smartphone or a PC, while the execution will be on a server that returns an understandable result through WSDL (Web Service Description Language) generated by web services, where the transport is provided by SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol).
