-<p>Hardware Resource Manager (HWRM) is a client-server solution, which utilizes

-<li id="GUID-B9558230-898F-51E8-8839-4CEB8C8D3FB4"><p>Provide client APIs
-to control lights, vibra. </p> </li>
-<li id="GUID-6CC6C834-CE06-534C-A39A-D1C617F04094"><p>Retrieve battery information
-of the device. </p> </li>

-related Publish and Subscribe properties. </p> </li>
-<li id="GUID-34B70C64-2C40-55F5-9C30-6C851E1351D1"><p>Enable clients to retrieve

-various hardware elements. It also provides callback pointers, so that the
-client applications can register to receive notification on the hardware status
-changes. Refer to the <xref href="GUID-2E3BE23C-B9DC-5B5D-A56A-1DB819EFC9A6.dita">tutorials</xref> for
-information on how to use client APIs. Client APIs are useful for both application
-developers and the handset manufacturers. </p> <p><b>HWRM server</b> </p> <p>HWRM
-server uses plug-in handlers to forward the client API requests to appropriate
-plug-ins. The client application communicates with HWRM server through the
-client APIs (Light API, Vibra API, and Power API). HWRM server defines the
-observer classes, which provide the callback pointers. </p> <p>The server
-calls <xref href="GUID-4603653B-34E4-3CC5-9978-95F9532A0616.dita#GUID-4603653B-34E4-3CC5-9978-95F9532A0616/GUID-5FB0A5EF-C2BB-3D0D-ACFD-9C7EE5BF41D2"><apiname>CHWRMPluginService::ProcessCommandL()</apiname></xref> function to
