ASN.1 Complete

ASN.1 is a pervasive formal notation used to specify many protocols that allow different programs and devices -- including cellular phones and PDAs -- to communicate with one another. It is also widely used by the developers who implement these standards in software and chip-embedded programs. ASN.1 Complete teaches readers everything they need to know to use ASN.1 -- whether for specifying a new protocol or implementing and existing one in a software or hardware development project. The author begins with an overview of ASN.1's most common 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, as well as commercial ASN.1 tools, providing and easy-to-navigate, truly comprehensive tutorial.

ASN.1 Complete teaches you everything you need to know about ASN.1-whether you're specifying a new protocol or implementing an existing one in a software or hardware development project. 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.
