Mobile Station Application Execution Environment (MexE)
Last modified: Thursday, May 03, 2007
Mobile Station Application Execution Environment (MexE) is a framework to ensure a
predictable environment for third-party applications in GSM or
UMTS handsets.
MExE does this by defining different technology requirements called classmarks.
MExE classmark 1 is based on WAP, classmark 2 on PersonalJava and JavaPhone, and
classmark 3 on J2MECLDC and
MIDP. Other classmarks may be defined in the
future. MExE specifies additional requirements for all classmarks, for instance
a security environment, capability and content negotiation, a user profile, user
interface personalization, management of services and virtual home environment.
A handset can support multiple classmarks. (Source:
