Abstract: The teachings herein disclose a method and apparatus for data mediation in a telecommunication network provides advantageous processing of an incoming data stream in a matter that reduces the amount of decoding needed for processing and correspondingly reduces the amount of re-encoding needed for transport of the processed data stream. These teachings make use of a working data structure that provides a memory-efficient data structure for processing targeted data items in the data stream and are implemented, for example, in a data mediation node that includes one or more communication interfaces, e.g., for receiving incoming data streams for data-mediation processing, and for sending along processed data streams to targeted recipients.

Abstract: An Interrupt Processor is provided in an embedded system to handle interrupts generated in the system. The function of the interrupt processor is to handle interrupts and execute interrupt routines. It performs code execution for interrupts which require immediate response. The other interrupts received by the interrupt processor are arranged in a queue on the basis of their respective priorities. An interrupt signal is then sent to the main processor which processes all the signals in one go. This prevents multiple and frequent switching of the main processor and hence avoids the switching overhead. Since the main processor operates at low frequency, the system consumes less power as compared to conventional systems.
