Appl. No.:

09/792323

Inventors:

Lakshmi Arunachalam - Menlo Park CA, US

Assignee:

WebXchange, Inc. - Menlo Park CA

International Classification:

G06F 13/00

US Classification:

709219, 709203, 709227, 719313

Abstract:

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for providing real-time, two-way transactional capabilities on the network. Specifically, one embodiment of the present invention discloses a configurable value-added network switch for enabling real-time transactions on the network. The configurable value added network switch comprises means for switching to a transactional application in response to a user specification from a network application, means for transmitting a transaction request from the transactional application, and means for processing the transaction request. Additionally, a method for enabling object routing is disclosed, comprising the steps of creating a virtual information store containing information entries and attributes associating each of the information entries and the attributes with an object identity, and assigning a unique network address to each of the object identities. Finally, a method is disclosed for enabling service management of the value-added network service, to perform OAM&P functions on the services network.

US Classification:

709203, 709202, 709206, 709217, 709219

Abstract:

The present invention provides a system and method for providing controlled service transactions involving multiple service providers on a service network. A client access device links to the service network via a network entry point and performs the multi-service provider transaction under the control of a network transactional application at a hub that holds the transaction captive and includes a router to route to remote distributed software objects at nodes of the service providers. The software objects include methods that may be remotely executed under the control of the transactional application at the hub.
