- Description: The Plural Node architecture is an implementation architecture for professional audio devices that adhere to the “Audio and Music (A/M)” protocol. The A/M protocol determines how audio and MIDI data are transported over IEEE 1394 (firewire). The Plural-Node implementation architecture comprises two components on separate IEEE 1394 nodes – a “Transporter” component dedicated to A/M protocol handling, and an “Enabler” component that controls the Transporter and provides high level plug abstractions. Low level control of individual Transporters occurs within the “Hardware Abstraction Layer” (HAL) of the Enabler. Device manufacturers write their own plug-ins for the HAL to interact with their Transporters. The Open Generic Transporter specification provides an open interface between the HAL and Transporter for the convenience of device manufacturers.

- Description: An application, called the mLAN Installation Designer, has been developed that enables the user to graphically design and validate an mLAN sound installation. This application is built upon a model of mLAN systems that is defined by an Extensible Markup Language (XML) Schema, ensuring cross platform portability and future scalability. The XML Schema provides sufficient flexibility to form the basis for a standard effort to describe the configuration of IEEE 1394 based sound installation environments. The output from the mLAN Installation Designer application file is an XML document, consistent with the defined schema, which allows a configuration tool to configure the mLAN devices for automatic operation during deployment of the system.
