`ABSTRACT
`
`The present invention provides a method and apparatus for
`providing real -time, two-way transactional capabilities on the
`Web. Speci?cally, one embodiment of the present invention
`discloses a method for enabling object routing, the method
`comprising the steps of creating a virtual information store
`containing information entries and attributes associating each
`of the information entries and the attributes with an object
`identity, and assigning a unique network address to each of
`the object identities. A method is also disclosed for enabling
`service management of the value-added network service, to
`perform OAM&P functions on the services network
