The advent of mobile computers and wireless networks enables the deployment of wireless Web servers and clients in short-lived ad hoc network environments, such as classroom area networks. This paper studies wireless Web performance in a classroom environment. Experiments are conducted on an ad hoc IEEE 802.11b wireless LAN, using a wireless-enabled ApacheWeb server, several wireless clients, and a wireless network analyzer. The experiments focus on the HTTP performance and network throughput achievable in the wireless classroom environment.
