13、-2-2012 Version 2.02 iii Foreword (This foreword is not part of the NISO Circulation Interchange Protocol (NCIP) Part 2: Implementation Profile 1, ANSI/NISO Z39.83-2-2012. It is included for information only.) About This Standard This Implementation Profile (IMP1) has been developed to provide a pra

14、ctical implementation structure for the NISO Circulation Interchange Part 1: Protocol (NCIP). The Foreword to Part 1 provides a complete description of the reasons for the NCIPs development and the reasons for describing the physical implementation of the NCIP within an Implementation Profile rather

15、 than within the NCIP itself. In brief, the committee decided that this approach would improve the extensibility of the NCIP. This approach also allows the community of application providers and users to adapt the implementation profile to changing technology. Version 2.00 includes radical changes t

16、o the protocol. It is not backward compatible with Version 1.00, as it is based solely on an XML Schema. The Version 2.00 changes build on changes made since original publication of NCIP and known collectively (if inaccurately) as version 1.01, the version several implementers are already using. The

17、re are a few other changes that also break backward compatibility. The most significant are in error handling and extensibility. A summary of the changes made in Version 2.00 is included in the Foreword to ANSI/NISO Z39.83-1-2008, NISO Circulation Interchange - Part 1: Protocol (NCIP). A complete ch

18、ange list for Version 2.00 (including the incorporated changes from version 1.01) is posted on the NISO website at: www.niso.org/standards/z39-83-1-2008/. In 2009, the NCIP standard (parts 1 and 2) moved from a periodically maintained standard that requires reaffirmation every five years to a contin

19、uously maintained standard. Under continuous maintenance, a process is put in place for submittal and review of proposed changes on a published schedule. Requests for change must be submitted to the NCIP Standing Committee (NISO-SC) prior to its semiannual in-person meetings. At each meeting, the gr

20、oup will review all of the change requests and decide to accept the change for inclusion in the next revision, accept the change for further study and additional discussion at a future meeting, or reject the change. The complete procedure for the continuous maintenance is available at the NISO websi

21、te (www.niso.org/workrooms/ncip/continuous). When a sufficient number of changes have been accepted by the NCIP-SCor one or more changes is deemed to be to significant enoughthe NCIP-SC will prepare a revision for ballot and approval by a NISO voting pool of interested NISO voting members. The NCIP-

22、SC believes that Continuous Maintenance will permit the NCIP standard to adapt more quickly to the ever-changing needs in the implementer community. The group is, however, sensitive to the tension that exists between frequent changes, interoperability, and backwards compatibility. Therefore, the NCI

23、P-SC is committed to maintaining backwards compatibility in minor revisions and reserving more significant structural changes for major revisions. For example, Version 2.00 and 2.01 will be compatible, but there is no guarantee that Version 2.01 and Version 3.0 will be. Of course, a Version 2.0 impl

24、ementation exchanging with a Version 2.01 implementation will not understand any changes introduced in Version 2.01. It should be noted, too, that the effective version used in any specific transaction is governed by the Initiator. In December 2010, Version 2.01 was issued by the NISO-SC and treated

25、 as a draft for trial use. It was not officially balloted or approved as a revision to the standard. The changes in this standard (Implementation Profile 1) include updates for the proper URIs for the 2.01 schema and inclusion of what is the proper XML header for a conforming document. For a full li

26、st of the Version 2.01 changes to NCIP, see the Foreword to NISO Z39.83-1-2008 (Version 2.01), NISO Circulation Interchange - Part 1: Protocol (NCIP). This is Version 2.02. The changes in this revision are primarily corrections to earlier versions. Most notably, the reference in Section 5.3 to ISO 8

27、601 for the format for dateTime elements has been ANSI/NISO Z39.83-2-2012 Version 2.02 iv adjusted to reflect changes in the structure of that standard. Also, the location for the NCIP Version schema (Section 6.3.2) has been restored to what it was in Version 1.0 of the standard. The schema for the

28、Version element was intended to remain static across versions and should not have changed with each revision. The URIs of the schemas given in Appendix C, too, have been restored to the values from Version 1.0. A note has been added to explain that the schema URI should not change unless the content

29、 of the referenced schema itself changes. In addition, these schemas have been normalized to have a consistent format. Finally, new values have been added to the Bibliographic Item Identifier Code scheme and the Medium Type scheme. Instructions for Submittal of Proposed Change to ANSI/NISO Z39.83 Un

33、ng decisions about this Implementation Profile 1 (IMP1) the committee examined ways to facilitate rapid and widespread implementation of the NCIP. Two goals drove decision-making: 1) make it easy for service providers to use NCIP in a variety of applications, and 2) make it easy for them to build th

34、ose applications quickly. From these goals, the committee developed the following principles: Use technology that is widely supported. This dictated choosing options that offered the most robust support for application development. Stay with the curve. NCIP will be embedded in applications that last

35、 an average of several years, if not longer. This requires choosing technology likely to stand the test of time. In some cases, this meant rejecting very promising technology when it was not clear that the technology would be widely adopted. As noted below, the committee deliberately built bridges t

36、o emerging technology where possible. These were judgment calls, not matters of precise calculations. Several areas deserve particular mention: Message Encoding and Structure The committee chose Extensible Markup Language (XML) over ASN.1/BER, which has been widely used in library applications. XML

37、is supported by a large number of organizations and tool providers. This provides implementers with a choice of tools. In addition, the expectation is that it will be the dominant encoding ANSI/NISO Z39.83-2-2012 Version 2.02 v method used in Internet communication. This widespread usage will help t

38、hose using the NCIP for library applications to connect libraries to the broader stream of information services available in todays electronic environment. Extensibility The Foreword to Part 1 discusses the variation in circulation practice and the need for a flexible mechanism for supporting variat

39、ion in practice and local policy. The business rules that enforce these policies often use enumerated data types to characterize those policies. In some cases these are defined in existing authoritative lists; in other cases, the lists are maintained locally by an agency or a consortium. In either c

40、ase, the expectation is that the definition of the enumerated types will be independent of the XML Schema definition for NCIP messages. The committee has adopted a data structure that allows for an optional Scheme attribute on data elements that tend to be values drawn from lists of values (authorit

41、ative or local) while leaving implementers free to use values without the mandated constraint of pre-defined lists.” Character Encoding The committee chose Unicode (UCS-2) for character encoding because the protocol messages may carry character data unsupported by the ASCII character set (American S

42、tandard Code for Information Interchange, ANSI X3.4-1 986). UTF-8 was chosen as the encoding scheme. Using UTF-8 is consistent with the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) mandate for the use of Unicode in Internet standards. UTF-8 will allow applications that only require support provided by ASC

43、II encoding to use ASCII and remain compliant with this IMP1. Message Transport The committee carefully considered the options for specifying transport protocols. Two aspects of the anticipated implementations drove the decision-making: The NCIP will be implemented extensively in applications that c

44、ross administrative domains. In these applications, secure transmission is a critical issue. In many cases NCIP messages will be embedded within Web applications, but in others, notably self-standing kiosk applications, the use of Web protocols might be difficult. For these reasons, the IMP1 allows

45、applications to use one of three transport protocols: hypertext transport protocol (HTTP), hypertext transport protocol with secure socket layer (HTTPS), and TCP/IP. The initiating application selects the transport mechanism and the responding application must respond using that transport. These cho

46、ices may be restricted by an application profile. The committee also considered using Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). While it had several advantages, the committee chose not to adopt it because SOAP is not currently a fully approved protocol. Trademarks, Service Marks Wherever used in this st

47、andard, all terms that are trademarks or service marks are and remain the property of their respective owners.
