Performance Comparison of Enterprise Applications on Mobile Operating Systems
Abstract: Due to the advances
in mobile phone technology, Smartphones have the ability to access web services
within applications the user interacts with to retrieve and send information
from and to web services. As Smartphones have grown in popularity, the utilisation
of both new web services and web services already in place will also grow. This
paper provides a comparison of the two main types of web services, SOAP and
REST. We evaluate the performance of
using SOAP and REST on a smartphone. The tests performed include the time taken
to perform a web service call, the RAM used making a web service call and the
data transmitted and received while making a web service call.
