Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) technology is possibly one of the most exciting new areas that has emerged in recent times to add extended functionality and information services to users of handheld wireless devices such as cell phones, pagers, PDAs', and so on.

In order to serve better the interests of the telecom hardware and software industry worldwide, we have chosen the area of telecom technologies and applications as one of its focuses. WAP technology is one of the key areas within this focus in which we have been actively taking part in the recent past. Since this technology is a relatively new one, distinct efforts have been made to study the area on an ongoing basis to keep abreast of new developments, while continuously developing new skills and technical offerings based on the current trends in the market.
