Offering vertical services to subscribers and service providers is an avenue to immediately improve the competitiveness of digital subscriber line access service, for example of the type offered by a local exchange carrier. To deliver high-quality vertical services, however, the underlying ADSL Data Network (ADN) or the like needs to establish Quality of Service (QoS) as a core characteristic and offer an efficient mechanism for insertion of the vertical services. The inventive network architecture introduces QoS into the ADN, in a manner that enables the delivery of sophisticated and demanding IP-based services to subscribers, does not affect existing Internet tiers of service, and is cost-effective in terms of initial costs, build-out, and ongoing operations. The architecture utilizes a switch capable of examining and selectively forwarding packets or frames based on higher layer information in the protocol stack, that is to say on information that is encapsulated in the layer-2 information utilized to define normal connectivity through the network. The switch enables segregation of upstream traffic by type and downstream aggregation of Internet traffic together with traffic from a local vertical services domain.

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for specifying and obtaining services through audio commands, resulting in a live conversation between a user and a selected service provider using an audio-transmission medium (the telephone). A service seeker locates a service provider by entering a keypad code corresponding to a field of service or by speaking the name of a profession, which is recognized by the system. The seeker can then specify, via voice or keypad entry, a price range, quality rating, language, and keyword descriptors of the service provider, such as a service provider code number. In response, the system offers currently available service providers. Once an available service provider is selected, the system connects the service seeker with the service provider for a live conversation. The system bills the seeker for the time spent conversing with the service provider and compensates the service provider accordingly.

A method, system, and computer program storage device are disclosed for providing security in a mashup comprised of an agglomeration of a plurality of portlets. These portlets are sent from one or more back-end servers, pass through a portal server, and are received by a client browser. The method comprises the steps of developing an isolation boundary between the portlets to isolate each of the portlets from each of the other portlets, and extending said isolation boundary through the portal server and through the browser. Preferably, the portal server bases the isolation boundary on a server-side static analysis and code instrumentation of the portlets. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, each of the portlets is checked for a number of syntactic constraints and marked with a corresponding service domain. The portlets are aggregated into a page-using HTML, and that page is converted into JavaScript.

A system and method for determining service availability and soliciting customers is provided, whereby the availability of a power line communications system for a user is determined and, if the service is available, an offer is provided to that user in an attempt to solicit the user as a customer. A general area of a customer location is determined, and it is determined whether the general area is at least partially coincidental with a service area where a power line communications service is available. If it is determined that the general area is at least partially coincidental with a service area where a power line communications service is available, it is determined if the customer location is enabled for the power line communications service. If it is determined that the customer location is enabled, an offer related to the power line communications service is provided to an entity associated with the customer location.

By the adoption of the method and device for automatically deploying the network configuration, corresponding network configuration carried out on the devices in a network is achieved in an automatic mode, and the problems that in the prior art, manual network configuration carried out on the devices in the network is large in workload and the like are avoided.

A gateway using multiple NAT tables to translate network addresses (e.g., Internet Protocol Addresses). The gateway may comprise a service selection gateway connecting remote systems to service domains. The gateway translates local addresses of remote systems to external addresses, and vice versa. The external addresses (bound to the respective local addresses) may be provided by the service domains. The NAT information is partitioned according to service domains such that the external addresses related to the same service domain are stored in the same NAT table. If there is no overlap of external addresses provided by two service domains, the two service domains may share the same NAT table. Due to the partitioning of the NAT information, each table may be limited to be of small size, and the accesses to individual tables may be fast. As a result, a gateway may be able to process and forward packets quickly.

A system and method whereby a client can transfer data to a service on the same or another protection domain and obtain a handle to it, the handle being defined as any mutually agreed-upon token that refers to the data, and which is usually much shorter than the data. The handle may then be passed to a service in lieu of again transferring the data. For example, in the case of a client sending the same data to multiple destinations, the invention allows the data to be transferred from the client protection domain to the service protection domain once using the data transfer operation. The client can then call the communication service any number of times by passing a handle to the instance of the data in the service protection domain, thus obviating the need to repeatedly transfer the data between the client and the service. An alternative embodiment allows the client to aggregate service invocations which are to operate on common data and to transfer a composite service invocation to a service domain using the data handle. The invention can be applied among local entities within one protection domain, between two protection domains at one location, between remote protection domains, across networks, between clients and routers, etc.

Guest domains (virtual machines) may execute at a virtualization server. During execution, the guest domains may request various services to facilitate their operation. The virtualization server may disaggregate the services requested by the guest domains among various service domains. A service domain may be configured to provide one the services. The virtualization server may also maintain a pool of partially initialized service domains. When a guest domain requests a particular service, one of the partially initialized service domains may be selected from the pool, and the partially initialized service domain may complete initialization to become an initialized service domain. The initialized service domain may thus be configured to provide the service requested by a guest domain. The virtualization server may periodically replenish the pool of partially initialized service domains to ensure that a partially initialized service domain is available upon demand from one of the guest domains.
