- Description: AES64, which is an IP-based peer-to-peer network control protocol, integrates the connection management and control capabilities across digital audio networks. This enables the streaming of all types of media content among devices from different manufactures because it provides a common approach for device control. This paper describes this protocol. Each parameter of a device can be addressed with a 7-level hierarchical structure that reflects the functional layout of the device. The protocol has been implemented in many different types of networks.

- Description: When related audio control parameters are distributed in many devices in a high-speed audio network, a means for centralizing remote control and monitoring is required. Changes in one parameter may need to affect other parameters. The XFN protocol enables management of distributed parameters. This paper focuses on how to group related parameters that are physically separated and provides a corresponding implementation using the protocol. A comprehensive grouping theory is presented.

- Description: With the advent of digital networks that link audio devices, there is a need for a protocol that integrates control and connection management, enables the streaming of all media content such as audio and video between devices from different manufacturers, and that provides a common approach to the control of these devices. This paper describes such a protocol, named XFN, currently being standardized as part of the AES X170 project. XFN is an IP-based peer to peer network protocol, in which any device on the network may send or receive connection management, control, and monitoring messages. Essential to the XFN protocol is the fact that each parameter in a device can be addressed via a hierarchical structure that reflects the functional layout of the device.

XFN is an IP-based peer to peer network protocol, in which any device on the network may send or receive connection management, control, and monitoring messages. Essential to the XFN protocol is the fact that each parameter in a device can be addressed via a hierarchical structure that reflects the natural layout of the device.

- Description: Firewire is a digital network technology that can be used to interconnect professional audio equipment, PCs and electronic devices. The Plural Node Architecture splits connection management of firewire audio devices between two nodes, namely an Enabler and a Transporter. The Audio Engineering Society’s SC-02-12-G Task Group has produced an Open Generic Transporter guideline document which describes a generic interface between the Enabler and Transporter. A client-server implementation above the Plural Node Architecture allows connection management of firewire audio devices via TCP/IP. This paper describes enhancements made to connection management applications as a result of additional capabilities revealed by the Open Generic Transporter document.

- Description: This paper describes the use of mLAN (music Local Area Network) to solve the problem of audio routing within hotels and convention centers. mLAN is a Firewire based digital network interface technology that allows professional audio equipment, PCs and electronic instruments to be easily and efficiently interconnected using a single cable. In order to solve this problem, an existing mLAN Connection Management Server, augmented with additional functionality, has been utilized. A graphical client application has been created that displays the various locations within a hotel/convention center, and sends out appropriate routing messages in Extensible Mark-up Language (XML) to an mLAN connection management server. The connection management server, in turn, controls a number of mLAN audio distribution boxes on the firewire network.
