Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090132672METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR A MEDIATION PROCESSING NODE TO UPDATE A MESSAGE - A mediation processing node computer processor updates a message. A message is received for processing by a mediation processing node computer processor. It is deduced from a declared interface of the mediation processing node computer processor that one or more message values will be updated by the mediation processing node computer processor as a result of its processing. The interface of the mediation processing node computer processor is then used to obtain the one or more updated values and the updates are then applied to the message.05-21-2009
