During the last few years, the popularity of different kinds of Internet capable mobile devices has increased considerably. By using these devices, a user has access to numerous different services currently found on the Internet, from anywhere in the world. Many of the existing Internet services are designed to be used with a desktop PC with a large monitor and fast Internet access. This is a major usability problem with mobile devices equipped with only a small display and a relatively slow wireless Internet connection. In this thesis, an existing ASP service was converted for mobile device use. The service originally intended to be used with an Internet browser, was implemented as versions for two very different kinds of mobile devices. The entire project consists of changes made to existing server as well as the client application created for the mobile devices. The healthcare oriented exercise set delivery service was converted so that, the software at the server creates a package containing the whole exercise set, which is then delivered into the mobile device. The mobile application in the device is responsible for displaying the exercise set, interaction with the user, and for returning the feedback made by the user back to the server. This thesis covers the server side of the above that is, an optimisation of the existing WWW pages and the device specific software for the exercise set package creation. /Kir10 |
