Abstract: Mobile internet services discovery and/or provisioning enables mobile devices to discover available internet services and/or to provision selected internet services, including any associated mobile applications. In an example implementation, a mobile internet services shell located at a mobile device presents available internet services to a user (e.g., upon powering the device on). The user is empowered to select one or more internet services for provisioning. The mobile internet services shell interacts with a mobile internet services proxy located on a network. In another example implementation, the mobile internet services proxy facilitates communications between the mobile internet services shell and other discovery or provisioning parties by translating communications between one format and another format that is proprietary to a mobile network operator.

Abstract: Wireless internet services billing enables a telecommunications company to bill internet service events on a transaction level. In a described implementation, an internet service event, which occurs at least partially within an internet environment, is detected. An internet services proxy injects event billing information related to the detached event into an event billing information communication that is sent to a telecommunications billing gateway. At the telecommunications billing gateway, the event billing information is logged into an event billing log in association with an identity of a telecommunications user. By way of example, the event billing information may comprise an action indicator and an entity identifier. The action indicator indicates an action corresponding to the event, and the entity identifier identifies an entity that is associated with the event. The internet services proxy may be located at a telecommunications device of a user, at a provider of internet services, or both.

Abstract: Dynamic utilization of condensing metadata is enabled by condensing information being communicated to/from a mobile device. The communication exchange occurs between a mobile device and an internet service, and it involves a mobile internet service proxy. The information is condensed responsive to condensing metadata and uncondensed using the condensing metadata. In an example embodiment, condensing metadata comprises encoding metadata for tags and compression metadata for other data. In a first described implementation, a mobile internet service proxy effectuates a static installation of condensing metadata to the mobile device from the internet service. In a second described implementation, the internet service lacks condensing metadata. The mobile internet service proxy therefore retrieves the schema defining the relevant information and dynamically generates condensing metadata.
