ABSTRACT
Based on the analysis of finding, I will come up with a proposed system design called Mobile multi-chat, this will be shown to my supervisor in other to seek approval and then commence the implementation of the proposed system. The system will be implemented with PHP and MYSQL (as the database) as the backend. During the design and the implementation phase all activities will be well documented, and after the implementation the system will be able to use to chat with more than one user.
CHAPTER ONE
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Mobile chat may refer to any kind of communication over the Internet that offers a real-time transmission of text messages from sender to receiver. Chat messages are generally short in order to enable other participants to respond quickly. Thereby, a feeling similar to a spoken conversation is created, which distinguishes chatting from other text-based Mobile communication forms such as Internet forums and email. Mobile chat may address point-to-point communications as well as multicast communications from one sender to many receivers and voice and video chat, or may be a feature of a web conferencing service.
Mobile chat in a less stringent definition may be primarily any direct text-based or video-based (webcams), one-on-one chat or one-to-many group chat (formally also known as synchronous conferencing), using tools such as instant messengers, Internet Relay Chat (IRC), talkersand possibly MUDs. The expression Mobile chat comes from the word chat which means "informal conversation". Mobile chat includes web-based applications that allow communication "often directly addressed, but anonymous between users in a multi-user environment. Web conferencing is a more specific Mobile service,that is often sold as a service, hosted on a web server controlled by the vendor.
