CURIOUS NETWORKS TO PRESENT AT MIDWEST WIRELESS APPLICATION DEVELOPERS SIG


CHICAGO - February 17, 2002 - Curious Networks today announces Chuck Clark, Senior Software Engineer at Curious Networks, has been selected to speak at the Midwest Wireless Application Developers Special Interest Group (SIG) hosted by Geneer, a leading developer of custom wireless applications. On Tuesday, February 19, Mr. Clark will present "Mobile User Interface Standards: Challenges and Solutions."


Delivering applications to a mobile workforce requires user interfaces to operate on the dozens of PDAs, WAP phones, and voice recognition systems available. While some standards exist, they are too simplistic and often not adhered to by device manufacturers, making the mobile application developer's job a nightmare. Mr. Clark will discuss current trends and growth in mobile solutions and detail some of the technical complexities involved in developing multi-channel applications. Several approaches will be discussed including manual coding, XML/XSL transformations, and product solutions. This presentation will be followed by a question and answer session to discuss experiences building and delivering mobile applications.


Developed for technical professionals by technical professionals, this new, non-commercial SIG is designed to promote discussion of wireless developer tips and tools, and provides the opportunity to network and learn.



The SIG will meet on February 19th from 6:00pm to 8:30pm at Geneer's headquarters located at Geneer, 1400 E. Touhy Ave., Des Plaines, Illinois.
