Summary:A server federation cooperatively interacts to fulfill service requests by communicating using data structures that follow a schema in which the meaning of the communicated data is implied by the schema. Thus, in addition to the data being communicated, the meaning of the data is also communicated allowing for intelligent decisions and inferences to be made based on the meaning of the data. Cooperative interaction is facilitated over a wide variety of networks by messaging through a common API that supports multiple transport mechanisms. Also, mid-session transfer between client devices is facilitated by schema and the transport-independent messaging structure. The user interfaces of the client devices will appear consistent even if the client devices have different user interface capabilities. Selon cette invention, un ensemble serveur interagit de manière coopérative afin de satisfaire des demandes de services, par communication au moyen de structures de données qui suivent un schéma dans lequel la signification des données communiquées est implicite. Ainsi, en plus des données, la signification des données est également communiquée, permettant des décisions et interférences intelligentes sur la base de la signification des données. L'interaction coopérative est facilitée dans une grande variété de réseaux à l'aide d'envoi de messages à travers un API commun qui prend en charge des mécanismes de transport multiples. De plus, le transfert à mi-session entre les dispositifs clients est facilité par la structure de schéma et d'envoi de messages indépendant du transport. Les interfaces d'utilisateurs des dispositifs clients sembleront cohérentes même si les dispositifs clients possèdent des capacités d'interface d'utilisateur différentes.
