Thanks to maturing Web\u2010services standards, and to new mobile devices and application solutions, progress is being made in presenting similar Web\u2010services offerings in both mobile and fixed networks. To bring that architecture and the solutions it will support to the world of mobility is indeed a significant issue in m\u2010business applications, because mobile Web services present various advantages: Reduction of the overall cost of development (by reusing existing system components), faster time to market introduction of products (provided by applications\u2019 rapid development and deployment) and remarkable possibilities to emerge new applications with increased functionalities. In addition, the new and forthcoming mobile networks, with native IP connection and high speed transmission capability, allow the development of a variety of modern multimedia services. Multimedia Messaging Services (capable to mix the media types in order to enable more intuitive messaging operation), and Instant Messaging and Presence Services (dedicated for presence, instant messaging, and distribution and sharing of multimedia content in groups of users), provide suitable underlying capabilities to support location\u2010based and context\u2010sensitive multimedia services. In this paper we will present the current approaches regarding architectural, functional and security features that allow enterprises to enjoy the benefits of traditional Web services in the mobile multimedia domain.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1108\/17440080680000101","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,6,5]],"date-time":"2010-06-05T07:14:08Z","timestamp":1275722048000},"page":"51-62","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Web services and multimedia in m\u2010business applications: Opportunities and concerns"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"2","author":[{"given":"Christos K.","family":"Georgiadis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Panayotis E.","family":"Fouliras","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Ioannis","family":"Mavridis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Athanasios","family":"Manitsaris","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"p_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ICDCSW.2005.81"},{"key":"p_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1145\/944217.944233"},{"volume-title":"JProceedings of the International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems.","author":"Oh S.","key":"p_3"},{"volume-title":"Loosely Coupled: The Missing Pieces of Web Services","year":"2003","author":"Kaye D.","key":"p_4"},{"key":"p_5","first-page":"403","author":"Chang Y.
