Protocol Business Services

Protocol business services are standard business services that can emit a document to a designated target or can read from a source. In the standard situation for output, a <replyto> should be used, however for some circumstances, a protocol business service can be employed. In all cases, if an emitter can be used, it should be used in preference to a protocol business service. Each protocol business service takes initialization parameters appropriate to the protocol type.
