Abstract
This chapter further refines the possible structuring of a protocol by discussing a number of general purpose functional building blocks, called Protocol Elements. We mention a number of frequently used Service Elements, like association control, addressing, data transfer and quality of service (QoS), and a number of frequently used protocol elements that can support these Service Elements. We show that a Service Element can be supported by different protocol elements, whereas a Protocol Element may also support different Service Elements.
