An operator provides services to a population of clientde-vice, such as mobile communication devices, including search servicesac-cessed via an operator portal. A search gateway places a search object, inwhich user privacy is protected, into a distributed, transactional object(tu-ple) space. Resolvers monitoring the space read the search descriptors andcoordinate an external search to be performed with result objects placedback in the space. The gateway removes the search result objects from thespace, matching them with the user search for reporting to a user of theclient device. Thereby, an increased amount of content is accessible acrossa distributed system.
