• PathLookupSession: a session to retrieve paths
• PathQuerySession: a session to query for paths
• PathSearchSession: a session to search for paths
• PathAdminSession: a session to create and delete paths
• PathNotificationSession: a session to receive notifications pertaining to path changes
• PathMapSession: a session to looking locations of paths to maps
• PathMapAssignmentSession: a session to manage path to graph mappings
• PathMapAssignmentSession: a session to manage dynamic graphs of paths
