Use of codelets to solve interoperability problems in network functions

Abstract

A communications network utilizes codelets within a network function for correcting interoperability issues within standardized messages. A processor configured to execute the instructions for operating the network function receives a codelet for execution at a hook point for processing a standardized message within the instructions. The processor executes the codelet to determine that a message is incompatible with a local configuration or interpretation of the standardized message and to modify the message to be compatible with the local configuration or interpretation of the standardized message. The processor executes the network function to process the modified message.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
