Wireless Internet Protocol
Wireless Internet Protocols (WIP) is a suite of wireless protocols that evolved after the Wireless Application Protocol 2.0 (WAP). WIP encompasses several technologies and standards developed to enable the delivery of web content to wireless devices in a more efficient and optimized manner.
One of the key components of WIP is XHTML (Extensible Hypertext Markup Language), a markup language that allows for the creation of structured web pages. WIP includes specific variants of XHTML, such as XHTML Basic and Nokia's XHTML Mobile Profile, which are tailored for mobile devices and have reduced complexity compared to traditional desktop XHTML.
Unlike the earlier WAP versions, which relied on HTTP-to-WAP proxies to adapt web content for wireless devices, WIP allows for the direct delivery of XHTML pages to compatible wireless devices. This eliminates the need for intermediary servers or proxies to convert and adapt content, resulting in a more streamlined and efficient browsing experience.
One of the advantages of using Wireless Internet Protocols is the ability to render web pages differently based on the device's capabilities and screen size. With WIP, developers can create a single version of a web page that is capable of adapting its layout and content presentation to suit different types of devices. This eliminates the need for maintaining multiple versions of the same page, simplifying the development and maintenance process.
It's important to note that the term "Wireless Internet Protocols" may not be widely used or recognized in the current technological landscape. The information you provided seems to be from the early 2000s when WAP was a prominent technology. Since then, mobile web standards have evolved, and newer technologies and protocols, such as responsive web design and HTML5, have gained prominence for creating adaptable web pages across various devices.
