A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Minion - Service Model and Conceptual API Author(s) : Janardhan Iyengar Stuart Cheshire Josh Graessley Filename : draft-iyengar-minion-concept-00.txt Pages : 12 Date : 2013-06-30 Abstract: Minion uses TCP-format packets on-the-wire, to provide full compatibility with existing NATs, Firewalls, and similar middleboxes, but provides a richer set of facilities to the application. Minion's richer facilities include a message-oriented API rather than TCP's unstructured byte-stream service model, multiplexing of multiple messages (or message streams) on a single connection, interleaving of multiplexed messages (to eliminate head-of-line blocking), message cancellation, request/reply support, ordered and unordered messages, chained messages, multiple priority levels with byte-granularity preemption, and DTLS Security.
