9、) and IEC (the Inter- national Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of IS0 or EC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to de
10、al with particular fields of technical activity. IS0 and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with IS0 and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, IS0 and E
11、C have established a joint technical committee, ISOAEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Intern
12、ational Standard ISO/IEC 9545 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Informarion rechnology, in collaboration with ITU-T. The identical text is published as ITU-T X.207. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO/IEC 9545:1989), which has been technically revis
13、ed. Annexes A, B and C of this International Standard are for information only. . 111 ISO/IEC 9545: 1994(E) 0 ISOrnC Introduction This Recommendation I International Standard is a refinement of the description of the OS1 Application Layer contained in ITU-T Rec. X.200 I ISO/IEC 7498-1. The purpose o
14、f this Recommendation I International Standard is to facilitate a coherent and modular approach to Application Layer standardization. It defines a set of architectural principles and concepts that provide a basis for structuring and relating the specifications contained in AppIication Layer Recommen
15、dations and Standards. It defines the internal structure of the Application Layer, providing a framework for the deveIopment of Application Layer Recommendations and Standards. It also describes the general principles underlying the operation of application-protocols. The following subjects are cove
16、red by this Recommendation I International Standard: a) the relationship between distributed information processing and OS1 communication services; b) the structure of application-entities; c) the OSI-service and protocol structure in the Application Layer; and d) ASO-context and application-context
17、. This Recommendation I International Standard onIy considers those aspects of distributed information processing for an application which are relevant for the derivation of generic requirements for the structuring of Application Layer communications. The architectural framework specified in this Re
18、commendation 1 InternationaI Standard embodies concepts that may not be fully supported by existing Application Layer Recommendations and Standards. However, these concepts have been specified so as to provide a basis for the development of future Application Layer Recommendations and Standards whic
19、h, it is anticipated, will require their use. This Recommendation I International Standard may be subject to future expansion, particularly with regard to multi-peer communication, security, application-context management, recovery, and Open Distributed Processing. A companion Technical Report, whic
20、h is currently under development, will provide guidance on applying this Application Layer Structure during the creation of Application Layer service and protocol Recommendations and Standards. iv ISO/IEC 9545 : 1994(E) INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ITU-T RECOMMENDATION INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY - OPEN SYSTEM
21、S INTERCONNECTION - APPLICATION LAYER STRUCTURE 1 Scope This Recommendation I International Standard refines the description of the Application Layer contained in the Basic Reference Model for OS1 (ITU-T Rec.

22、g and future Application Layer Recommendations and Standards. It is provided for reference by Application Layer Recommendations and Standards. In particdar this Recommendation I International Standard: defines the nature of Recommendations and Standards in the Application Layer and the relationships
23、 among them; defines the architectural framework in which individual OS1 Application Layer protocols are developed. defines concepts which provide a flexible approach to structuring in the Application Layer; defines the categories of identifiable objects which are necessary for the specification and
