Abstract:
   The Composable Event Streaming Representation (CESR) is a dual text-
   binary encoding format that has the unique property of text-binary
   concatenation composability.  This composability property enables the
   round trip conversion en-masse of concatenated primitives between the
   text domain and binary domain while maintaining the separability of
   individual primitives.  This enables convenient usability in the text
   domain and compact transmission in the binary domain.  CESR
   primitives are self-framing.  CESR supports self-framing group codes
   that enable stream processing and pipelining in both the text and
   binary domains.  CESR supports composable text-binary encodings for
   general data types as well as suites of cryptographic material.
   Popular cryptographic material suites have compact encodings for
   efficiency while less compact encodings provide sufficient
   extensibility to support all foreseeable types.  CESR streams also
   support interleaved JSON, CBOR, and MGPK serializations.  CESR is a
   universal encoding that uniquely provides dual text and binary domain
   representations via composable conversion.  The CESR protocol is used
   by other protocols such as KERI [KERI].
