Abstract

Protocol Specification Language (PSL) is a framework for describingdynamic and architectural properties of component-centered opensystems. PSL extends established interface-based tactics fordescribing the functional properties of open systems to the realmof protocol description. PSL specifications consist of logical andtemporal rules relating situations, each of which describespotential states with respect to the roles of components,role attributes, and the issuance and reception of events. Aspecialized form, PSL/IDL supports design methods and engineeringtools for describing protocols in CORBA systems.
