Abstract :
Wireless data promises useful services and great convenience. The many technological and economical obstacles that have been hampering its growth are slowly being overcome. In this article we first explain our vision of what next-generation wireless data services may look like. Then we present the different elements of a base architecture designed to support the common requirements and features. As an example, we describe our initial experience in implementing a wireless data server prototype at Bell Laboratories
