25. A method of communication between remote devices, the method comprising:
-
registering a callback through an application programming interface (API); subscribing to asynchronous data from a remote device through the application programming interface (API); providing the asynchronous data from the remote device to a first formatter, wherein the first formatter translates the asynchronous data from a protocol domain to an application domain; and returning the asynchronous data to the callback.
