  Mobile Ticketing System:
  In mobile Ticketing system, I have implemented following features;
  
  • Create a 2D Bar Coded ticket as simple Nokia Picture Message (not as MMS) .
  • Send that ticket message via SMSC gateway to the given number.
  • Interpret the request from GaviTec machine and perform validation on our own server.
  • If ticket is valid then create a dynamic layout of our ticket and give response to GaviTec machine for ticket printing.
  • In case of invalid ticket or any other issue e.g. paper not available, just give a message to be prompt on LCD of GaviTec.
  
  
  J2ME Application for Mobile Banking:
  
  I developed my on framework of J2ME to support animation, event handling etc. I did some R&D on J2ME Polish and LUWIT and then instead of using those I picked up there good approaches and developed my own as per our requirement. We didn’t use J2ME polish and LUWIT because we have to consider jad/jar sizes for our application.
  Using my own framework we develop a complete Mobile Banking Apllication and use antenna to maintain builds for different mobile resolutions.
  
  Blackberry Application for Mobile Banking:
  
  I developed a Mobile Banking Application having custom controls, custom layout manager and animations to ensure rich GUI.
