Traditionally, web pages are designed for network links that exhibit slight packet loss and low latency, such as high speed fixed line and digital subscriber line (DSL) links. They often fail to meet the user’s expectations to deliver adequate performance over lower performing network links that we have in the mobile phone world.

User connectivity over bandwidth constrained links combined with high latency and packet loss experience slower page loads, thereby inflating the response times for applications. There are varying latencies from the different network types. Fixed access connection such as DSL typically exhibits lower latency than wireless networks.

We also have plenty of bandwidth variations between these network types. Different networks with varying performance metrics have different results for web applications.

When mobile users access applications that are designed for faster-fixed line users, the results are unexpected. Much of this can be aided by a
