Abstract

The number of smart devices is growing ever more due to additional functionalities of mobile operating systems. This has begun a growth in the development of applications that can trigger such operating systems with the predominance of the Android operating system. The main functionality of many of these applications is communication between users by using the internet connection. Since users consider the speed of message exchange as the most important aspect when communicating with messages to another user, messaging applications usually offer instant messaging service. Currently, messaging usually includes three services: displaying user contacts, displaying presence
of contacts, and messaging between two users. By doing so, the user considers messages exchange and presence information almost instantaneous. This is achieved by using the XMPP - Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP), which is a communication protocol based on open code technologies for swift sending messages, sending notifi cations, performing video calls,etc. It has been developed on Jabber technology that enables open mode of closed services for swift messaging. The paper describes the basic properties of the XMPP protocol important for understanding the protocol work.
