Abstract

        “MOBILE TRACKING” is based on J2ME and PHP. In today’s fast world, mobile has become one of the important commodities of a human being. It has become a necessity rather than a luxurious commodity. The Mobile Tracking helps to track the current location of the mobile. It is a web application.

This system sends the following information to the server.
