Project Goal

The goal of the LOMS project is to define and develop an open service architecture through which new innovative local mobile services can easily be created, deployed, and consumed by mobile users. The aim is to lower the threshold for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and non-professional users to set up their own mobile services and allow charging from the content or service provisioning in business-to-consumer (B2C) or business-to-business (B2B) scenarios.

Major project outcome includes definition, creation and development of business models, user scenarios, and a Serviceware with associated support functions and tools for the provisioning of mobile content in local services, e.g., in shops, tourism locations, airports, car parks, and trains. A number of new innovative mobile applications will be created in the project to demonstrate the feasibility of the developed platform.
