Title : Ruoska Encoding

Abstract:
This document describes hierarchically structured binary encoding
format called Ruoska Encoding (later RSK). The main design goals are
minimal resource usage, well defined structure with good selection of
widely known data types, and still extendable for future usage.
The main benefit when compared to non binary hierarchically
structured formats like XML is simplicity and minimal resource
demands. Even basic XML parsing is time and memory consuming
operation.
When compared to other binary formats like BER encoding of ASN.1 the
main benefit is simplicity. ASN.1 with many different encodings is
complex and even simple implementation needs a lot of effort. RSK is
also more efficient than BER.
