-/**
- * Core component of the SAL layer responsible for wiring the SAL consumers.
- *
- * The responsibility of the broker is to maintain registration of SAL
- * functionality {@link Consumer}s and {@link Provider}s, store provider and
- * consumer specific context and functionality registration via
- * {@link ConsumerSession} and provide access to infrastructure services, which
- * removes direct dependencies between providers and consumers.
- *
- *
- * <h3>Infrastructure services</h3> Some examples of infrastructure services:
- *
- * <ul>
- * <li>RPC Invocation - see {@link ConsumerSession#rpc(QName, CompositeNode)},
- * {@link ProviderSession#addRpcImplementation(QName, RpcImplementation)} and
- * {@link RpcImplementation}
- * <li>Notification Service - see {@link NotificationService} and
- * {@link NotificationProviderService}
- * <li>Functionality and Data model
- * <li>Data Store access and modification - see {@link DataBrokerService} and
- * {@link DataProviderService}
- * </ul>
- *
- * The services are exposed via session.
- *
- * <h3>Session-based access</h3>
- *
- * The providers and consumers needs to register in order to use the
- * binding-independent SAL layer and to expose functionality via SAL layer.
- *
- * For more information about session-based access see {@link ConsumerSession}
- * and {@link ProviderSession}
