I'm interested in automatic code generation of protocol
handlers from protocol specifications -- particularly for
the CCITT standards (X.25).  I didn't think anyone had
actively pursued this until I discovered a Dec '79 issue
of IEEE Computer.  In this issue, there is an "Open
Channel" letter describing the OSA (and RSPL) project.

If anyone has any references to OSA or RSPL (Reliable
Software Production Language) -- or to subject of
"communication protocol software generation from
specifications" -- I'd appreciate hearing from you.

The OSA project was (at least in Dec '79) being done
at

	Technische Universitat Berlin
	Institut fur Software und Theoretische Informatik

Thanks much.
