AN AUTOMATED COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRANSFERRING INFORMATIONS BETWEEN DATABASES IN ORDER TO CONTROL AND PROCESS COMMUNICATIONS

摘要

An automated communications system operates to transfer data, metadata, and methods from a provider computer (1) to a consumer computer (2) through a communications network (3). The transferred information controls the communictions relationship, including responses by the consumer computer (2), updating of information, and process for future communications. Information which changes in the provider computer (1) is automatically updated in the consumer computer (2) through the communications system (3) in order to maintain continuity of the relationship. Transfer of metadata and methods permits intelligent processing of information by the consumer computer (2) and combined control by the provider and consumer of the types and content of information subsequently transferred.
