Inside, the author begins with an overview of ASN.1's most commonly encountered features, detailing and illustrating standard techniques for using them. He then goes on to apply the same practice-oriented approach to all of the notation's other features, providing you with an easy-to-navigate, truly comprehensive tutorial. The book also includes thorough documentation of both the Basic and the Packed Encoding Rules-indispensable coverage for anyone doing hand-encoding, and a valuable resource for anyone wanting a deeper understanding of how ASN.1 and ASN.1 tools work. The concluding section takes up the history of ASN.1, in terms of both the evolution of the notation itself and the role it has played in hundreds of protocols and thousands of applications developed since its inception. FEATURES - Covers all the features-common and not so common-available to you when writing a protocol specification using ASN.1. - Teaches you to read, understand, and implement a specification written using ASN.1. - Explains how ASN.1 tools work and how to use them. - Contains hundreds of detailed examples, all verified using OSS's ASN.1 Tools package. - Considers ASN.1 in relation to other protocol specification standards.
