    Abstract

    This short paper describes a form based Message oriented business application framework developed on the Symbian platform, hereafter referred to as mobileForms. MobileForms framework enables usage of forms over different communication infrastructure, such as: multimedia media messages (MMS), Bluetooth (Bth) messaging, Email and also over the conventional channel i.e. HTTP in cellular networks via GPRS/3G connections. The different addressing mechanisms corresponding to the above communication channel are supported respectively. The mobileForms application framework has been developed to function in an offline mode (locally cached, rendered, used and processed). We will discuss in this paper the motivation why we developed the mobileForms prototype in addition to the architecture and implementation aspects taken into consideration
