Systems and methods are disclosed for configuring a web application based on a general property hierarchy. An application property scheme including one or more property hierarchy levels may be generated based on values within a system configuration file. Each level defines configuration values for various properties associated with the web application. A property retrieval subsystem of the general property hierarchy may be used to look up configuration values from the appropriate hierarchy level(s) of the application property scheme in order to configure one or more properties of the web application during its execution. The values in the system configuration file may be changed and the changes may be reflected dynamically in the application property scheme without substantial interruption to the execution of the web application.

General property hierarchy systems and methods for web applications

An IP-to-PLMN gateway (IPG) enables extension of the PLMN messaging domain into IP domains. Enhanced service functions in a PLMN (such as store and forward, message waiting) are carried over into the messaging service available in the IP domains. The IPG has an SME interface which interfaces on the mobile network side with an SMSC. A presence management function detects and maintains data relating to presence status of users in the IP domain.

Control of PLMN messaging services in IP domains

An access node has a portal which performs interfacing between a wireless network domain and content/service providers in the Internet. On the wireless side the portal is linked with an SMSC, a CBC, and a USSD server for interfacing with and management of bearer stacks. Service functionality includes modular systems including a Push server, a Pre-paid calling server, and a location server in addition to internal portal functions. The latter provide for subscriber self-provisioning, customer care provisioning, subscriber device provisioning, and service provisioning. Thus, the node caters for both particular subscriber service and mobile device requirements.
