Introduction. Use in Telecoms. Industrial experience of using SDL in IskraTEL (A. Robnik et al.). A distributed SDL-based intelligent network laboratory (P. Csurgay, F.A. Aagesen). SDL-92 support for re-use in protocol system specifications - some early experience (A. Sinton, M. Crowther). MSC Session 1. Using MSC-92 effectively (O. Haugen). Generating tools for message sequence charts (S. Mauw, E.A. van der Meulen). Syntax requirements of message sequence charts (M.A. Reniers). MSC Session 2.
