ABSTRACT:
A novel communication device (e.g., router or switch) facilitates interoperation between a plurality of middleware. The communication device has in-ports, out-ports, and a configurator. In-ports, IP0, . . . , IPm, are associated with a middleware from a plurality of middleware and out-ports, OP0, . . . , OPn, are associated with a middleware from the plurality of middleware. The configurator configures in-ports and out-ports based on a binding and transport of associated middleware and the novel communication device facilitates interoperation between middleware via a communication path between at least one configured in-port and at least one configured out-port, with the communication path allowing an incoming message to pass from said at least one configured in-port to said at least one configured out-port. Parameters ‘m’ and ‘n’ are chosen such that any of the following conditions are true: m=0 and n≧1, m≧1 and n=0, m=n, m=1 and n>1, m>1 and n=1, and m≠n.
