Sublayers of Presentation Layer

The presentation layer is composed of two sublayers:

  • CASE (Common Application Service Element)
  • SASE (Specific Application Service Element)


The CASE sublayer provides services for Application layer and request services from Presentation layer. It provides support for common application services, such as:

  • ACSE (Association Control Service Element)
  • ROSE (Remote Operation Service Element)
  • CCR (Commitment Concurrency and Recovery)
  • RTSE (Reliable Transfer Service Element)


The SASE sublayer provides application specific services (protocols), such as

  • FTAM (File Transfer, Access and Manager)
  • VT (Virtual Terminal)
  • MOTIS (Message Oriented Text Interchange Standard)
  • CMIP (Common Management Information Protocol)
  • JTM (Job Transfer and Manipulation) a former OSI standard
  • MMS (Manufacturing Messaging Service)
  • RDA (Remote Database Access)
  • DTP (Distributed Transaction Processing)
