Abstract
The limited access to information in developing regions hinders the growth and potential of developing regions. Limited infrastructure makes it difficult to resolve the limited access to information. By utilizing existing cell phone technology to bridge the gap between remote clients and database servers, the information gap can be lessened. Voice transport is not simple enough to be viable means of information exchange. However, another cell phone technology, SMS, provides a medium that is both simple and flexible enough to be viable. MySMS takes advantage of this medium by providing a framework using SMS as a transport layer to allow SQL queries, notifications, remote code execution and rapid application development.
