A device-based network service provisioning model is provided in which a wireless device facilitates a subscriber to provide provisioning information for activating carrier, value-added or other service provider services automatically. The model facilitates subscriber control while balancing service provider needs. Provisioning components may be provided to a device during a provisioning session to maintain service provider branding, look and feel and other control over a subscriber's experience. Provisioning components may be dynamically generated to capture current services, subscriber plans and particular device criteria. In one embodiment, service provider-side components define a service-oriented interface (e.g. Web services) for receiving a subscriber's provisioning information. Device-side components define an interface to request and receive the provisioning components and to provide provisioning information to the service-oriented interface. A gateway may be interposed between the device and service-oriented interface to provide the provisioning components to the wireless device and proxy provisioning session communications.

Embodiments of systems and methods model and generate open reusable, business components for Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) from existing client / server applications. Applications are decomposed into business component frameworks with separate user interface, business logic, and event management layers to enable service-oriented development of new enterprise applications. Such layers are re-assembled through an open standards-based, Native Application Services (NAS) to render similar or near identical transactional functionality within a new application on an open platform, without breaking former production code, and without requiring a change in an end-user's business processes and / or user experience. In addition, the same separated layers may form re-usable business components at any desired level of granularity for re-use in external composite applications through industry-standard interfaces, regardless of usage, context, or complexity in the former Client / Server application.

A service-oriented bus for distributed gaming systems allowing gaming machines, servers, workstations, mobile PCs, handheld devices and automatic telling machines to talk together over a network. The game service bus provides a publish-and-subscribe message bus over a private network within a gaming property and / or over the public Internet across several properties. The service bus framework allows participating communicating end points to publish services or subscribe to services in a simple and standardized high level fashion, thereby enabling the devices to understand one-another, thus“talk” together. The “talking together” paradigm is rather appropriate, as it emphasizes the value that the service bus brings to a complex distributed casino gaming system that may include thousands of devices manufactured by dozens of vendors. Gaming machines may talk together in a peer-fashion over the service bus, which is well suited for multiplayer gaming. The service-oriented bus allows third party ultra-specialized vendors to offer dazzling plug-in services directly on the casino floor, such as automated geo-localized logistic support and other geo-localized services.

A plurality of service facades are used to expose the capabilities of an underlying telecommunications network in different ways. Each service façade provides a different interface to access a set of functions of the telecom network. The service facades can be accessed by client applications residing externally with respect to the telecom network. The client applications can invoke a particular service façade to send a message to the network and the invocations can be translated to the native protocols used by the resources in the telecom network to carry out the request. The service facades can be deployed on a service access gateway to the telecom network and can include a simple object access protocol (SOAP) façade, a representational state transfer (REST) façade, a service oriented architecture (SOA) façade and a native façade.

After the initial prompting, the typing task is followed by a computerized verbalization of the text. Subsequent interface steps can be visual in nature, or involve only sound.

Service Capability Interaction Manager (SCIM)-type functionality is provided at a horizontal service layer in an Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)-based approach. SCIM composition is provided at multiple levels, including the level of composition where servlets have full access to the context information of the service layer. SCIM composition also occurs at the level of an application dispatching messages to multiple applications / services for processing the messages. The functionality at the service layer also can be programmed using policies, such that routing decisions can be made dynamically as the result of processing conditions and actions. An incoming message can result in a Web service being triggered that in turn triggers a BPEL or SOA workflow, the workflow calling multiple operations to process the message as a result of a routing table or header, environmental and contextual information at the service level, and other information such as user preference or presence information.

A method of managing data with high granularity, comprises identifying data objects and an associated data management policy. The policy uses features and a common semantic to define a feature-based sequence of data management actions of a data management operation that varies for different objects depending on respective features. Features of the data objects are obtained and then used to associate a data management action with the object using the policy so that the object is managed individually according to its own features, thus achieving high granularity of data management precision and also high flexibility.
