a vast range of mobile services which are independent of their selected network and terminal. With the use of WAP, mobile subscribers can access the same amount of information
that they normally receive through their desktop from a pocket-sized device. BACKGROUND As a global standard, WAP is not controlled by any single company. The WAP Forum was founded
in the summer of 1997 by Ericsson, Nokia, Motorola and Unwired Planet with the idea of defining a specification for application development over wireless communication networks that would be industry-wide
(Wireless...). These specifications as outlines by the founding companies define the protocols of application, transaction, session, security, transport layers, and manufacturers (Wireless...). They also set the standards for the
appropriate applications to meet the challenges which are presented by the advanced wireless service (Wireless...). The WAP forum now has over one hundred members who represent terminal and infrastructure manufacturers,
as well as operators, service providers, content providers and various companies that are responsible for the development of services and applications for mobile devices (Wireless...). HOW DOES WAP WORK In
its simplest description, WAP is a standardized technology for cross-platform, distributed computing (Introduction...). WAP is very similar to the World Wide Web in that it has the combination of HTML
and HTTP, but it also adds in an optimization for allows for low-bandwidth, low memory, and low-display capability environments (Introduction...). Included in this low-bandwidth, low memory and low display
environments are PDAs, wireless phones, pagers and nearly any other type of communications device. WAP and the Web are also similar in their approach to content distribution (Introduction...). Each
focuses on distributing content to distant devices by using inexpensive, standardized software (Introduction...). WAP relies on back-end servers to handle the authentication of user, to answer database inquiries and
