+/**
+* CAiwServiceHandler is the main class of the Application Interworking
+* Framework. The Service Handler implements support for dynamically
+* loadable service providers which offer services to consumer applications. 
+* The Service Handler maps consumers and service providers together via 
+* interests and data agreements and hides the consumers from the providers. 
+*
+* SERVICE is any command or functionality offered by a provider to 
+* consumer. The service includes typically menu item UI elements,
+* but it can also just an engine type of command which executes specific 
+* functionality and reports status back to the consumer.
+*
+* CONSUMER application accesses interesting services offered by
+* service provider(s). The consumer uses only those services in which
+* it is interested in. The interest is expressed using a set of criteria
+* items.
+*
+* INTEREST is a list of criteria items.
+*
+* CRITERIA consists of set of attributes which guide the AIW Framework to use
+* only those providers in which the consumer is interested in.
+* The criteria consists of following attributes:
+*   - Criteria UID (we can allocate pre-defined criteria items).
+*   - Service command UID (we can allocate pre-defined commands).
+*   - Content MIME type (string).
+*   - Additional options (variant data type just in case).
+*
+* PROVIDER produces those services for a consumer that match the given criteria 
+* specified by the consumer. A provider can offer menu items and their command
+* handling logic to the consumer applications. A provider can also offer base
+* services that don't require any UI elements.
+*
+* DATA AGREEMENT is an agreement between consumer and provider about parameters 
+* needed to be passed in a use case.
