MSLS
is both, a specific skiing-orientation
and information system and a generic client software which can be
used to access potentially a vast variety of services (examples:
city-info about shops, streets, restaurants, hotels, parking
etc. ) without the need to upgrade the client software.
MSLS is based on a
very small ( 50 KB
) scripting engine called Dpdl ( Dynamic Packet Definition
Language ), a kind of scripting language which can be used to
implement in very short time various services, like the ones
mentioned above.
MSLS also
provides a MapBuilder tool which can be used to trace
graphical information into loaded maps, which in terms can be
accessed and
controlled with Dpdl.
Dpdl has been
especially designed to run on Mobile Devices and embedded
Systems (PDA, ...) , but runs also on other platforms and in
internet browsers. Compared to other
standards like XML, Dpdl is very efficient and easy to use.
