Abstract: Many web applications over the last decade are built using Web services based on Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), because these Web services are the best choice for web applications and mobile applications in general. Researches and the results of them show how architectures and the systems primarily designed for use on desktop such as Web services calls with SOAP messaging, now are possible to be used on mobile platforms such as Android. The purpose of this paper is the study of Android mobile platform, more precisely the ability of this platform for consuming Web services and exploring existing alternatives for consuming Web services from this platform. People use their vehicles every day for transport and this of course leads to a constant demand for finding a parking lot. In this paper is proposed the system, named as MyParking through which it is aimed to facilitate users finding a parking lot for their vehicle depending on their current location. MyParking consists of three modules: Android client, administration and Web services.
