isode-7.0.tar.Z  - Package description:
 
 The ISODE (pronounced I-SO-D-E), or ISO Development Environment, is
 a collection of library routines and programs that implements an
 extensive set of OSI upper-layer services.  The ISODE
 implementation of the upper-layers of OSI is interesting in four
 respects:
       - it provides extensive automatic tools for the development of
 	OSI applications; 
       - it supports OSI applications on top of both OSI and TCP/IP-based
 	networks; 
       - it provides a novel approach to the problems of OSI coexistence
 	with and transition from the Internet suite of protocols; and,
       - it is openly available (non-proprietary).
 The ISODE was originally developed in 1986 at the Northrop Research
      and Technology Center as a means to experiment with OSI
      applications.  Current support for the ISODE comes from Performance
      Systems International (PSI) and partially from the U.S. ~Defense
      Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
   - Current modules include:
 	OSI transport service (TP0 on top of TCP, X.25 and CONS; TP4
 	    for SunLink OSI)
 	OSI session, presentation, and association control services
 	ASN.1 abstract syntax/transfer notation tools, including:
 	    remote operations stub-generator (front-end for remote operations)
 	    structure-generator (ASN.1 to C)
 	    element-parser (basic encoding rules)
 	OSI reliable transfer and remote operations services
 	OSI directory services
 	OSI file transfer, access and management
 	FTAM/FTP gateway
 	OSI virtual terminal (basic class, TELNET profile)
   - ISODE 7.0 consists of final "IS" level implementations with the
     exception of VT which is a DIS implementation.  The ISODE also 
     contains implementations of the 1984 X.400 versions of ROS and RTS.
   - Although the ISODE is not "supported" per se, it does have a problem
     reporting address, Bug-ISODE@XTEL.CO.UK.  Bug reports (and fixes) are
     welcome by the way. 
   - The discussion group ISODE@NISC.SRI.COM is used as an open forum on ISODE.
     Contact ISODE-Request@NISC.SRI.COM to be added to this list.
   - The primary documentation for this release consists of a five volume
     User's Manual (approx. 1000 pages) and a set of UNIX manual pages.  The
     sources to the User's Manual are in LaTeX format.  In addition, there are
     a number of notes, papers, and presentations included in the documentation
     set, again in either LaTeX or SLiTeX format.  If you do not have LaTeX, you
     should probably get a hardcopy from one of the distribution sites below.
