> This document specifies the Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP),
> a specialized transfer protocol for use with constrained networks and
> nodes for machine-to-machine applications such as smart energy and
> building automation.  These constrained nodes often have 8-bit
> microcontrollers with small amounts of ROM and RAM, while networks
> such as 6LoWPAN often have high packet error rates and typical
> throughput of 10s of kbit/s.  CoAP provides request/reply and
> subscribe/notify interaction models between application end-points,
> supports built-in resource discovery, and includes key web concepts
> such as URIs and RESTful methods.  CoAP easily translates to HTTP for
> integration with the web while meeting specialized requirements such
> as multicast support, very low overhead and simplicity for
> constrained environments.
