                Appeal 2006-2696                                                                              
                Application 10/266,954                                                                        


                communications and routing said first data structure communications to the                    
                enterprise management system, the conversion by the task processing                           
                circuitry being transparent to the enterprise management system in that the                   
                enterprise management system interfaces with the subclients through the at                    
                least one client functionally representing the subclients via the midware                     
                server;                                                                                       
                      whereby the midware server effectively represents the subclients as a                   
                single client to the enterprise management system, and the enterprise                         
                management system continues to believe it is communicating with the single                    
                client, such that subclients may be added or removed from the enterprise                      
                computer network through the midware server while remaining transparent                       
                to the enterprise management system.                                                          
                      75.  A midware server for use in an enterprise computer network                         
                having an enterprise management system a plurality of clients                                 
                communicatively coupled to the enterprise management system, the                              
                enterprise management system being preconfigured to communicate with the                      
                client, the midware server comprising:                                                        
                      interfacing means for selectively introducing into or removing from                     
                the network wireless communication devices with which the enterprise                          
                management system is not preconfigured to communicate; and                                    
                      task processing circuitry that functionally represents the wireless                     
                communication devices as a single client to the enterprise management                         
                system so that the enterprise management system continues to believe it is                    
                communicating with the single client.                                                         


                                                      3
