Mobile web challenges workshop
Fragmentation or diversity - Paris, France, 29 May 2012
All of us acknowledge that the native app ecosystem is fragmented and majority of the industry now considers this paradigm as a race between two ecosystems. On the other hand, mobile web is gaining sustained industry interest in a bid to become a credible alternative, in the war of competing mobile operating systems.
The desire to reach across multiple platforms is also proving be its own anathema as different organizations have taken their own mobile app implementation approaches. To ensure that mobile web remains globally acceptable form of communication and delivery, there is a strong need to address interoperability and fragmentation through standardisation.
The workshop on HTML5 and mobile web aims to explore these issues by bringing together standards bodies, industry and the developer community.
