Conclusions
Internet access via small handheld devices is expected to increase
tremendously in the next few years. In this paper, we analyzed the access
patterns of a large web site designed primarily for wireless and handheld
mobile devices. The web site provides both browse and notification services.
To our knowledge,
this is a first-of-a-kind study that analyzes notification services. It is
also first in analyzing user behavior using a commercial web site. We
believe this is an important first step in the direction of understanding
the dynamics of wireless Internet services.
