BS ISO/IEC TR 10730:1993

This standard BS ISO/IEC TR 10730:1993 Information technology. Open systems interconnection. Tutorial on naming and addressing is classified in these ICS categories:

• 35.100.01 Open systems interconnection in general

This Technical Report introduces the main concepts and mechanisms which are defined in ISO 7498-3 to fulfil the needs for Naming and Addressing (N & A) objects in the Open Systems Interconnection Environment (OSIE). It also includes the rationale for some of the important decisions made in the Naming and Addressing architecture.

Although ISO 7498-3 does not define any specific forms of names and addresses, this Technical Report concludes with examples of specific name forms that have been defined in other published OSI standards thereby showing how the concepts and mechanisms defined in ISO 7498-3 have been applied in the naming of certain objects.
