Abstract
The Service Location Protocol provides a scalable framework for the
discovery and selection of network services. Using this protocol,
computers using the Internet need little or no static configuration
of network services for network based applications. This is
especially important as computers become more portable, and users
less tolerant or able to fulfill the demands of network system
administration.
