The industry is changing rapidly as users throughout the mobile service segment are demanding richer content and innovative applications on a number of different devices.

To improve the delivery of service, which is a priority for any service provider expecting to thrive in a tight market, they must leverage application enablers. This is to ensure they can keep up with the current demand, deliver the solutions the consumer today wants, and create new and innovative solutions that will meet the demand over the long-term.
