-/**
- * {@link Provider}'s implementation of rpc.
- *
- * In order to expose the rpc to other components, the provider MUST register
- * concrete implementation of this interface
- *
- * The registration could be done by :
- * <ul>
- * <li>returning an instance of implementation in the return value of
- * {@link Provider#getProviderFunctionality()}
- * <li>passing an instance of implementation and {@link QName} of rpc as
- * arguments to the
- * {@link ProviderSession#addRpcImplementation(QName, RpcImplementation)}
- * </ul>
- *
- * The simplified process of the invocation of rpc is following:
- *
- * <ol>
- * <li> {@link Consumer} invokes
- * {@link ConsumerSession#rpc(QName, CompositeNode)}
- * <li> {@link Broker} finds registered {@link RpcImplementation}s
- * <li> {@link Broker} invokes
- * {@link RpcImplementation#invokeRpc(QName, CompositeNode)}
- * <li> {@link RpcImplementation} processes the data and returns a
- * {@link RpcResult}
- * <li> {@link Broker} returns the {@link RpcResult} to {@link Consumer}
- * </ol>
