M-commerce (mobile-commerce) refers to e-commerce activities carried out via a mobile terminal such as a phone or PDA. M-commerce applications for both individuals and organizations are expected to grow considerably over the next few years. Because there are many factors that influence the growth and use of m-commerce applications in North America, a book addressing issues pertaining to the development, deployment, and use of these applications represents an important topic for practitioners, researchers, and educators.
The objective of this book is to provide a single source of up-to-date information about mobile commerce including the hardware and software technologies that enable m-commerce, research on the expected impact of this technology on businesses and consumers, and case studies describing state-of-the-art m-commerce applications and lessons learned. It is our hope that this book will be relevant to both a technical and non-technical audience in industry, academia, and in the consumer space.
