  • A Guide to Social Messaging for Mobile Operators
    A guide to social messaging for mobile operators Strategies to remain relevant in the messaging eco-system SUMMARY In a nutshell Social messaging is becoming more pervasive, and Ovum expects it to cannibalize up to $54bn of SMS revenues by 2016. Operators have therefore come under pressure to drive revenues from the non-voice parts of their communications businesses in an attempt to ward off the social messaging threat. Ovum believes that there are short term and long term strategies that operators can use to sustain messaging revenues and keep up with changing consumer messaging preferences. The current phase is critical for operators seeking to remain relevant and competitive in the messaging industry, and that refreshing their messaging strategies with IP-based social messaging is a crucial step. It is imperative that operators understand the impact of social messaging apps on consumer behavior, both in terms of changing communication patterns and the impact on SMS revenues. This guide enables operators to assess the social messaging landscape, assess their business propositions and guide operators on the various options available to remain relevant in an ever changing messaging eco-system. Ovum view The messaging industry is going through fundamental changes, and operators have no choice but to offer consumers services that suit their changing habits. This need is especially heightened by the increased competition created by social messaging players. Ovum has conservatively estimated a $54bn decrease in SMS revenues by 2016, due solely to the entrance of social messaging players. This is a baseline number, and the actual impact on SMS revenues is actually expected to overshoot this level.

ISSN: 2231 – 6604 doi: 10.7323/ijeset/v1_i2_1 Volume 1, Issue 2, pp: 1-7 ©IJESET A REVIEW OF SECURE SMS BASED M-COMMERCE Ashish Ranjan1, Rajashekara Murthy S2, Ramakanth Kumar P3 1Student & 2Assistant Professor, Department of CSE, RV College of Engineering, Bangalore -560059, INDIA 3Professor, Department of ISE, RV College of Engineering, Bangalore -560059, INDIA ABSTRACT Mobile devices have revolutionised the world. They are now being used for M-Commerce applications. Their affordability, high availability, and usage convenience has made SMS based M-Commerce to take over e- commerce. Nowadays it is used as an alternative for online transaction systems. The SMS facility available in mobile phones is used for communication between client and server modules. The regular encryption and decryption algorithms cannot be used as mobile devices have limited memory and processing power. Keeping these limitations in mind a new framework is proposed. It involves suitable encryption and decryption algorithms and a frame structure. The proposed framework is implemented for a banking application. The user sends the SMS after encryption to the bank server through his mobile phone. The bank server is programmed to poll the modem for messages. On the arrival of a request, the bank server decrypts and authenticates the message before servicing it. The serviced reply is again secured by encryption before the transaction, details are sent back to the client as another SMS using the modem. The client decrypts the received messages and displays appropriate results to the user. KEYWORDS M-Commerce, SMS, Perl, TEA, MD5 authentication I.

As the Internet started to proliferate in many parts of the world, the mobile phone penetration in terms of voice communication started to grow rapidly. This simultaneous rapid growth has caused a new phenomenon of convergence of Internet computing and mobile communication where M-commerce has its root. M-commerce has the potential to enhance the work-life within the employed mobile phone users in Bangladesh. The purpose of this study is to examine whether awareness and knowledge, convenience of Mobile devices and WAP/GPRS enabled handsets, pricing and cost, security and privacy, rich and fast information, and perceived usefulness have any influence on the adoption of M-commerce among employed Mobile phone users in two major cities in Bangladesh – Dhaka and Chittagong.

    MOB_Schutzumschlag.FH11 Mon May 21 11:39:27 2007 Seite 1 C M Y CM MY CY CMY K Mobile Commerce has gained increasing acceptance amongst various sections of the society in previous years. The reasons for its growth can be traced back to technological and demographical developments that have influenced many aspects of the socio- cultural behaviour in todays world. The need (and/or wish) for Rajnish Tiwari mobility seems to be the driving force behind Mobile Commerce. The launch of UMTS technology has provided Mobile Commerce Stephan Buse with the necessary verve. Mobile Banking presents an opportunity for banks to retain their existing, technology-savvy customer base by offering value- added, innovative services and to attract new customers from The Mobile Commerce Prospects: corresponding sections of the society. The customer survey provides evidence that such sections in the meanwhile include the affluent and financially relevant groups of the society in Germany. The time seems to be ripe to convert this non-negligible A Strategic Analysis of Opportunities customer interest into business-driving customer demand. A proactive attitude on the part of the banks seems to be therefore in the Banking Sector recommendable. Many banks in Germany have come to regard Mobile Banking as a necessary tool for thwarting negative differentiation vis-à- vis rivals and to foster/retain an innovative image. This self- reinforcing dynamism is expected to gain currency in near-future so that Mobile Banking services could soon advance to a standard product on the lines of Online Banking offered by more or less each and every bank.
