The document describes a three-tier architecture for mobile computing. It consists of a presentation tier, application tier, and data tier. The presentation tier handles the user interface and rendering. The application tier controls transaction processing and accommodates many users. The data tier manages database access and storage. Middleware sits between operating systems and user applications to handle functions like network management and security across tiers. This three-tier architecture provides benefits like improved performance, flexibility, maintainability and scalability.
Architecture of Mobile Computing

- 2. The network-centric mobile computing architecture uses three-tier architecture 1) Presentation Tiers 2) Application Tiers 3) Data Tier
- 4. In three tier architecture, the first layer is User Interface or Presentation Tier. This layer deal with user facing device handling and rendering. this tier includes a user system interface where user service reside. The second tier is the Process Management or Application Tier This layer is capable of accommodating hundreds of users. The middle process management tier controls transaction and asynchronous queuing to ensure reliable completion of transaction
- 5. The third final tier is the Database Management or Data Tier. This Layer is for database access and management. The three-tier architecture is better suited for an effective networked client/server design. It provide increased performance , flexibility , maintainability , reusability and scalability , while hiding the complexity of distributed processing from user. All these characteristic have made three-tier architecture a popular choice for Inter application and net-centric information system
- 6. 3 Tier Architecture
- 8. This is user facing System in the first tier. This is the layer of agent application and system. These applications run on the client device and offer all the user interface. This tier is responsible for presenting the information to the end user. Presentation Tier include web browsers (like Mozilla, Internet Explorer etc…)WAP browsers and customized client programs.
- 9. It performs the business logic of processing user input , obtaining data, and making decision In certain case, this layer will do the transconding of data for appropriate rendering in the presentation Tier. In mobile computing environment in addition to the business logic there are quite a few additional management function that need to be performed
- 10. These function relate to decision on renderinal , network manegement , security, datastore acess, etc. Most of these function are implemented using different middleware software. Middleware frame work is defined as a layer of software,which sits in middle between the operating system and the user facing software.
- 11. 1) Message –oriented Middlewar 2)Transaction processing Middleware. 3) Database Middleware 4)Communication Middleware 5) Distributed Object and Components. 6)Transcoding Middleware.
- 12. The Data Tier is used to store data needed by the application and acts as a repository for both temporary and permanent data. These can range from sophisticate relational database, legacy hierarchical database , to even simple text files.
- 13. Database middle ware allows the business logic to be independent and transparent of the database technology and the database vendor. Database middle ware runs between the application program and the database. Example of such middle ware will be ODBC,JDBC, etc.
- 14. Using this middle ware , the application will be able to access data from any source. Data source ca be text files, spreadsheets or a network, relational , indexed, hierarchical, XML database, object database, etc.., fro vendors like Oracle, SQL , Sybase , etc.
