Table 1 gives a summary of the rules governing the
relationship between a prototype tree
and the data transmitted at data communication time. The remainder of
this report expands on this table. The TypeSpec column of the table
uses the following notation:
<type>:<dictionary>::<value>:<nargs>, where <type>
specifies an MP node packet type (``Cmt'' for CommonMetaType, ``Cop''
for CommonOperator, ``Cmop'' for CommonMetaOperator, etc.),
<dictionary> is the name of the dictionary where <value> is
defined, and <nargs> gives the number of arguments for operators.
For example, ``Cmt:Proto::IMP_Sint32'' specifies the Common Meta Type
MP_CmtProtoIMP_Sint32 defined in the prototype dictionary.
