SIMalliance, the association of SIM card manufacturers, has rolled out the Smart Card Web Server (SCWS) demo kit which showcases multimedia applications like content store or interactive help desk running on a SIM card.
Based on a tiny web server embedded in a SIM card and taking advantage of the handset browser as a user interface, the SCWS allows operators and developers create a new generation of powerful SIM applications and services and ease their distribution towards consumers.
Through a LG Handset, the demo kit can be seen at the ongoing Mobile World Congress 2009 in Barcelona at the booths of Gemalto, Giesecke & Devrient, Incard , Oberthur Technologies and Sagem Orga.
