Ask HN: Book or Tutorial to Design Protocols?

1 pointsby elviejoover 2 years ago
I&#x27;m making a distributed system. With different actors and I need to design a protocol to mediate their communication.<p>What book would you recommend to learn &quot;the black art&quot; of protocol design?.<p>Thanks<p>PS: I&#x27;m looking for things more advanced than just: REST or Protobuf.
