Abstract: The invention concerns a device for and a method of integrating an arrangement (A) of computerised essentially arbitrary client systems (2) by permitting communication between the client systems. Each client system has a system-specific structure and processes information in a system-specific native format. The device comprises an integrating server (4) and a number of communication connections each connecting one client system to the integrating server (4) for the exchange of a message between said client systems and the server. The integrating server (4) comprises transformation means for transforming said message published by each client system (2) in the system-specific native format to a transformation format permitting subscription of said message by any other client system.
