| | Wireless Application Protocol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | WAP is a protocol suite created for mobile devices such as PDAs and mobile phones, aiming at giving their users a richer data application experience that would enable "access to the Internet". |  | | The WAP Forum proposed a protocol suite that would allow the interoperability of WAP equipment and software with many different network technologies; the rationale for this was to build a single platform for competing network technologies such as GSM and IS-95 (also known as CDMA) networks. |  | | WAP on top of the CDMA2000 network has been proven to be the state of the art wireless data infrastructure. |

| | Wireless Application Protocol |
 | | Looking at the issue of usability, WAP applications and utilisation environments will be fundamentally different from those in the wire-based Internet. |  | | Because the WAP applications can be downloaded on demand and discarded when no longer needed, the application environment also allows for dynamic extension of the terminal's user interface. |  | | WAP applications help the consumer to reduce the hassle related to many routine activities, freeing up time for more meaningful activities. |

| | Wireless Developer Network - WAP Overview |
 | | The Wireless Application Protocol is a standard developed by the WAP Forum, a group founded by Nokia, Ericsson, Phone.com (formerly Unwired Planet), and Motorola. |  | | In fact, as WAP continues to grow in support and popularity, it is highly likely that WAP application developers will make use of their existing Web infrastructure (in the form of application servers) for data storage and retrieval. |  | | WAP is a young technology that is certain to mature as the wireless data industry as a whole matures; however, even as it exists today, it can be used as an extremely powerful tool in every software developers toolbox. |

| | Wireless Application Protocol |
 | | The WAP protocol specifications were designed to optimize and extend existing Internet standards, as well as evolve to accommodate emerging technologies. |  | | WAP designers considered the established Internet and WWW standards and optimized WAP to work with those standards within the constraints of the wireless environment. |  | | WAP is forced to address several issues that affect service due to the nature of the wireless network medium, specifically low bandwidth, high latency, and unreliable connections. |

 | | Or, as a minimum, the underlying protocols enabling those interfaces ought to make it possible for developers to support multi-modal interfaces by explicitly hand-coding options for different kinds of input and output into the same application (see diagram). |  | | The WAP protocols try to limit memory consumption on the WAP device by using techniques such as tokenized byte streams, but then burden the WAP device with a proprietary variant of JavaScript. |  | | WAP 2.0 is a significant evolutionary step in the worldwide standard and will allow application developers to create compelling mobile content using the same tools and techniques they are already familiar with using for other Internet applications. |

 | | WAP and all WAP-based marks are trademarks or registered trademarks of the Wireless Application Forum Ltd. in the United States, Canada, Japan, Europe and other countries. |  | | WAP allows actions to be invoked from button pushes, screen tapping and even voice commands, however, every device is different and it is hard to see how a WML page can be designed for the great variety of devices which will exist in the future. |  | | From the user's perspective, using WAP is much like surfing the net on a personal computer; the mobile device is fitted with a small, or not so small, display which can be used just like a desktop browser. |
