Abstract: A technique is introduced for developing and deploying an application in a mobile domain. In operation, a mobile data model may be accessed, and a portion of the mobile data model may selected to be instantiated at a distributed device in order to create a mobile data store at the distributed device. The mobile data store may contain enterprise information. A mobile software application and at least a portion of the mobile data model may be made available to a consumer, and, in some embodiments, the application and the portion of the data model may be deployed to a consumer. In some embodiments, the consumer may be a hand-held computing device.

Abstract: A system and method for communicating in a mobile domain across non-persistent data links is disclosed. The method includes creating a domain data store of data relating to an enterprise system and establishing a communication link with a mobile computing device. The mobile computing device includes a mobile data store having at least a portion of the data from the enterprise system. The method further includes receiving transactions from the mobile computing device. The transactions comprise at least partially data operations performed on the mobile data store prior to the establishment of the communication link. The method also includes modifying the domain data store to reflect the transactions and communicating a portion of the domain data store to the enterprise system.
