Typical Comment Resolution
Clause 06 Sub clause Figure 3 Page 23 Line 38
Comment Type E Comment Figure 3 represents an
incomplete two dimensional model of the 15.3 MAC
and interfaces. It is too dull and uninteresting
to capture the interest of the casual reader.
Consequently, I recommend that Figure 3 be
replaced. Suggested Remedy Please replace the
current figure with the attached JPEG. Members
of the XSI engineering staff used an expensive
hi-tech modeling tool to develop a multi-colored,
3-dimensional model that illustrates in a more
exciting and interesting way the
interrelationships of the various 15.3 Protocol
components. In addition, you will note the DVD
player atop the APP layer of the PNC is using the
15.3 Protocol to transmit it's video content to
the HDTV atop the APP layer of the DEV receiving
the video stream from the PNC. Also note the
happy satisfied consumer viewing his/her favorite
movie. ADH
