[Css-csts] #5 BDP (Input Queue size)

[Ray, Timothy J. (GSFC-5830)]

Hi,

In looking through the BDP procedure to see where we specify that the Input Queue size is a configurable parameter, there is no mention of it.   Should there be?  Intended as help in making the decision, here are some related pieces of the puzzle:

The DP procedure, in section 2.1.3.2.6, says:
"The size of the Input Queue for PROCESS-DATA invocations shall be defined by the Service using this procedure or by a derived procedure."

The DP procedure, in section 2.1.3.2.7 (Note 2), says:
"... Because of this missing specification the procedure is abstract and cannot be directly implemented.  To be implementable, derived procedures must provide the missing specification"    (Presumably, the DP procedure cannot be used directly by a Service; there must be an intermediate procedure that is derived from the DP procedure).

Best regards,
Tim
