8. MOGID Server
- Server decodes the request and decodes the variables.
- In the case of a mobile phone, not only would the phone request a URL in the usual way, but it would also send a set of variables in the form of a second URL to indicate where its device profile could be found.
- The critical piece in the puzzle is that the URL "variables" go straight to the MOGID database. The server script is written in XML language for modeling metadata - descriptive information about items on the Web.
- The whole point is that information encoded is always linked to Web addresses. What this means is that by sending a URL for the device profile, all kinds of data about that device immediately become available. This can be to a certain extent protected by a security mode access and a means for encrypting and decrypting the information.
- The same critical point is the access of such value added services. Is is basically a service that is not for free thus user must login in the MOGID system in order to enable the corresponding services which are purchased in advance or paid monthly.
