System's Design and Implementation for Easy Creation of Mobile Commerce Systems

Mobile commerce (m-commerce) is a rather new field in the business world. It depends on wireless networks for accessing the Internet from mobile devices and for exchanging data between such devices. Wireless technologies on the one hand evolve rapidly and are met in many different applications. On the other hand a plethora of factors encourage market to make advances towards the m-commerce market. New ideas about m-commerce services and applications find acceptance by the business world and by users. Unfortunately not all users know how to create m-commerce services and applications. Thus a system which can easily create mobile commerce systems can be proved very helpful. In this paper we present a system which can create other m-commerce systems in a user friendly way. The system is meant to be used in the m-commerce market as a mean of developing hotel Websites and mobile sites. It uses a simple form which guides the user to create fully functional websites and mobile sites. We focus on implementation issues and evaluate our system after testing it. Finally, conclusions are extracted and future work is proposed.
