Re: [dss-x] Action Item DSS Usage

[Ernst Jan van Nigtevecht <EJvN@Sonnenglanz.net>]

Hello,

Attached an update of the slides (date May 29) regarding:
(1) the user client calculates the hash (Use Case variants 1c, 2b and 2d)
(2) the REST binding..... I only added a slide with TO DO... as a reminder..

By the way, we could also think of an extension to give the signed hash
as an argument to the DSS, instead of providing the hash and let the DSS
'get' the signature by means of the getSignature (see the Use Case
diagrams). But this can be viewed as an optimization...

I explicitly made the difference between UC1 and UC2 just to make it
clear and to show the differences/similarities. And it's true: UC1 is
actually a special case of UC2, where the User-Device and the User-Agent
collide.

Regarding the calculation of a hash: if a document is treated as a
binary document it is of course a simple case. But in case of, for
example, PDF I expect more difficulties..

With kind regards

Ernst Jan
