Extracting service features from protocol documents
J. F. Heafner, Frances H. Nielsen, M. Wayne Shiveley · 1980
This paper describes a manual procedure for itemizing the service features of a computer network protocol. The procedure has been tested and refined several times. The testing is described here, along with analysis of test results and general observations. The authors conclude that, although the procedure now provides only partially satisfying results, such a method is needed to aid in quantifying users' protocol needs.
