The layer of application

A.Layer of Application
            Communication on the Internet network is governed by various protocols. These protocols, or rules, spell out how the participants in various network processes should behave. Application protocol is one such protocol.
          Application protocols govern various processes, such as the process for downloading a web page, or for sending e-mail. The application protocol directs how these processes are done.

B.Protocol of application 
               Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) is a technical standard for accessing information over a mobile wireless network. A WAP browser is a web browser for mobile devices such as mobile phones (called "cellular phones" in some countries) that uses the protocol.

Before the introduction of WAP, mobile service providers had limited opportunities to offer interactive data services, but needed interactivity to support Internet and Web applications such as:

• Email by mobile phone
• Tracking of stock-market prices
• Sports results
• News headlines
• Music downloads                                                

C. Devices

        Smart device applications support many remote concept applications. It connect the databases in various ways normally it contain local databases stored in Temp folder. It maintain temp database. Smart device applications is of two types

• Pocket PC
• Windows CE                                  

ADO.Net architecture support Sqlserver and SqlserverCE. It is used for operations such as insert, update and delete etc.
SqlserverCE is used for CE based applications that is disconnected from Sqlserver databases. Sqlclient is used for CE based applications that is direct connection to Sqlserver databases.
Pocket PC is just like emulator. It reflect mobile operation. Normally smart device contain local database with help of SQLServerCE.
        
Deploying this application will create own framework and SQLCE. For connecting to remote or our local temp database we will use SqlserverCE or Sqlclient. SqlserverCE is used to run the application in WindowsCE based platforms.

Interfaces needed to interact with SqlServerCE Replication and RDA are SqlCEReplication and SqlCERemoteDataAccess. SqlCEEngine class used to enable databases.

 
          

Internet Service Protocol

         The competition among the three major network providers is getting stiff. They offer the same services but come in different looks. They compete in marketing strategies and special promotions to gain users. Due to their strategies and promotions, costumers are confused. Which one really works best? Which one has the best services? When choosing an Internet Service Provider (ISP), it is always necessary to consider some factors. You can choose from Digital Subscriber line (DSL), Cable or Wireless.  If you want to go wireless, you can have USB stick to have an internet access.  In the Philippines, you can choose among Sun Broadband, Smart Bro, and Globe Tattoo.  Here are some factors to be considered:

• Availability of the services on your location should be taken into consideration. Your location must be on the hotspot before you can avail of the service.  Sun Cellular has weak coverage is most rural areas.
• The second consideration is the speed or performance. Wifi is recommended for personal use as it has limited speed.
• Price should be considered as well. You need to know how it will cost you. You can have Wifi to have an unlimited connection a month for a very low price.  However, this is recommended for personal use only. It isn’t a good choice for business purposes.  Price also covers whether you would avail the prepaid service or the postpaid plan.
• Support services should also be considered.  The internet provider should be able to help you if encounter technical problems.
