| Direct Internet Message Encapsulation – DIME (3556 words) |
| Direct Internet Message Encapsulation (DIME) is a lightweight, binary encapsulation format that can be used to encapsulate multiple application defined entities or payloads of arbitrary type and size into a single message construct. |
| Because of the large number of often controversial message encapsulation formats, record marking protocols and in particular layered multiplexing protocols that have been brought up in the past and of which several are under consideration elsewhere, we would like to be as explicit about the goals and in particular the non-goals of DIME as possible. |
| DIME messages can be used to encapsulate a set of records that are logically associated in some manner, for example that they should be processed in the aggregate. |
