Mobile Multimedia is defined as a set of protocols and standards for multimedia information exchange over wireless networks. Therefore the book is organised into four parts. The introduction part, which consists of two chapters introduces the readers to the basic ideas behind mobility management and provides the business and technical drivers, which initiated the mobile multimedia revolution. Part two, which consists of six chapters, explains the enabling technologies for mobile multimedia with respect to data communication protocols and standards. Part three contains two chapters and is dedicated for how information can be retrieved over wireless networks whether it is voice, text, or multimedia information. Part four with its four chapters will clarify in a simple a self-implemented way how scarce resources can be managed and how system performance can be evaluated.
