Abstract

Communication protocols are implemented for the most part in software. The development stages of a protocol from its design to integration/installation correspond principally to the phases known from software development [Somm 00]. There are, however, a number of differences that give the protocol development process its own specific character. We discuss these differences in this chapter. First we give a short introduction to the main phases of the protocol development.
