Techopedia Explains Mobile Middleware
The mobile environment, which offers a more challenging ground for application development, is ideal for the use of middleware. Limited bandwidths, long latency, disparate platforms, constrained memory and processing resources and unreliable connections are some of the obstacles that can make development a costly and complicated exercise. Middleware makes things easier for mobile application developers by abstracting many of the issues involved. The mobile environment imposes critical requirements such as accessibility, reachability, adaptability, trustworthiness, and universality. To comply with such requirements, industries came up with what are now known as middleware platforms, including Java ME, Symbian, .NET, Android and the iPhone.Advertisement
