A Service Package Interpreter (SPI) is a software module that takes special tasks (Packages) from a generic HTTP daemon and handles them with the help of UI components.
The SPI module usually sits in kernel space as a UI driver from one side, and as an Ethernet device at the other side. The SPI then captures network traffic in order to find Package Requests (PR). When it captures one, the HTTP daemon sets up the FLGOT_POST_PACKAGE or FLGOT_GET_PACKAGE. The SPI compares both Ethernet data and HTTP request, interprets them and passes the interpreted data to the UI peripheral.

Famous quotes containing the words service and/or interpreter:
“We too are ashes as we watch and hear
The psalm, the sorrow, and the simple praise
Of one whose promised thoughts of other days
Were such as ours, but now wholly destroyed,
The service record of his youth wiped out,
His dream dispersed by shot, must disappear.”
—Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
“Man, being the servant and interpreter of nature, can do and understand so much and so much only as he has observed in fact or in the course of nature: beyond this he neither knows anything nor can do anything.”
—Francis Bacon (1560–1626)
