 * The MALBroker interface represents a shared MAL level broker, i.e., a shared

 * be bound to one or several transport layers. In this way, the MALBroker can
 * act as a bridge between several transport layers. For instance, a MALBroker
 * can bridge two transport layers by receiving updates from publishers through
 * the first transport layer and notifying those updates to subscribers through
 * the second transport layer.
