Abstract

Recently, in the field of mobile computing, significant efforts are aimed at creating speech enabled handheld devices, to provide an easier input method to users. At ITC-irst, inside WILMA (Wireless Internet and Location Management Architecture, www.wilmaproject.org) project, we developed a MBS (Multi-modal Browsing System), based on a client server architecture using a wireless infrastructure (IEEE802.11b standard). The client is running on a GNU/Linux Compaq iPAQ H3870 PDA (Personal Digital Assistant); this device can access the remote SPINET (Speech Into Equivalent Text) speech recognizer, developed in ITC-irst[4.1.1]. An Intimate Linux distribution\cite [11], modified for this application, was installed on the PDA [1]. After a brief overview of the IEEE802.11b standard, we will describe the MBS architecture in details, and we will discuss some possible future improvements of the system
