Abstract

Based on the advancements of mobile device, mobile platform, and wireless network technology, browsingWeb pages on mobile devices have become more popular. However, with its difference from the Webbrowsing behaviour on desktop, mobile Web browsing suffers from more environmental challenges.Traditionally, Web pages can only be viewed with stable telecom or wireless network connection. Inrecent years, Google Gears has been proposed to enable the offline Web browsing on mobile devices.However, the Google Gears mechanism can only be used with the server-side library supported by WebServers. The authors proposed a Web content middleware with personalized interest list to support offlineWeb browsing on mobile devices, even though the selected Web servers do not support the server-sideGoogle Gears mechanism. Finally, we compare other offline Web browsing solutions with ours andevaluate the offlineable rate of our framework.
