Most World Wide Web (WWW) resources are currently accessible from PCs and through HTTP; however, multimodal application research is being carried out and tools and proposals are being developed allowing access to WWW resources from several devices and mechanisms. The motivation for developing multimodal and multi-device applications has arisen from organisations’ need to avoid duplicating information and services available in applications and Web pages. This article describes the structure of a tool allowing multimodal and multi-device access to WWW resources through HTTP, SMS, WAP, MMS and S@T. This work’s main contribution lies in its proposing a possible and simple architecture for accomplishing this and validating it through implementing a prototype.
Actualmente la mayoría de los recursos de la World Wide Web (WWW) son accesibles desde PC y mediante HTTP, sin embargo, se están realizando investigaciones, herramientas y propuestas para el desarrollo de aplicaciones multimodales que permitan el acceso a recursos de la WWW desde diversos dispositivos y por variados mecanismos. La motivación para el desarrollo de aplicaciones multimodales y multidispositivos reside en la conveniencia de las organizaciones en evitar la replicación de información y servicios disponibles en sus aplicaciones y páginas web. En el presente artículo se describe la estructura de una herramienta que permite el acceso multimodal y multidispositivo a recursos de la WWW a través de HTTP, SMS, WAP, MMS y S@T. El principal aporte de este trabajo consiste en proponer una arquitectura posible y sencilla para realizar lo anterior y en validarla mediante la implementación de un prototipo.
