A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Universal Service Protocol Author(s) : T. Shemsedinov Filename : draft-shemsedinov-usp-00.txt Pages : 8 Date : 25-Sep-00 This document contains the description of a call and response packets of protocol USP. The protocol is the maximum generalized way of coding of the complex hierarchical information, in its basis the principles of object-parametrical modeling are fixed. The protocol does not assume binding to any specific service and gives only basic rules structuring of any service protocols, given for creation, however USP was developed as RPC protocol, which responses should be multipart structures on similarity MIME, but with support of a multilevel enclosure and other expansions. Unfortunately, the majority of the modern protocols represent the information differently, it is caused by that they were created by the independent developers, in different time and for work in different operational systems. The reduction of the protocols to a common format of representation of the information will allow essentially to facilitate development of the new protocols and spelling new servers, will remove problems connected to any incompatibility, and will raise speed of processing of the information. I distinctly imagine to myself all complexities connected to the introduction USP, but standardization always brought more benefits, than problems. A URL for this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-shemsedinov-usp-00.txt Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then "get draft-shemsedinov-usp-00.txt". A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-shemsedinov-usp-00.txt". NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages. Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft.
