Abstract

We describe a set of services that are either necessary or desirable for support of e-commerce transactions in wireless networks. We focus on e-commerce transactions that involve digitally represented information, such as audio or video files, computer software or text documents. For each proposed service we first explain its utility independently of the network connectivity and then we emphasize its benefits in wireless networks, when applicable.
