[detail level 1234]

▼Messages
Abstract Message Base Class	The class that allows messages to be created, transmitted, and reconstituted by another machine
Message Formats	Some message formats provided by UMPS
▼Messaging Patterns
Context	A context is like a thread used by ZeroMQ to send and receive messages
Introduction	Messaging patterns enabled by UMPS
▼Publisher-Subscriber Patterns
Publisher-Subscriber	The publisher-subscriber pattern is the simplest communication mechanism. It is included for pedagogical purposes only. Here, multiple consumers receive messages from one producer
Extended Publisher-Subscriber	A fully asynchronous publish-subscribe mechanism whereby a forwarder (proxy) relays messages from multiple publishers to multiple subscribers
▼Request-Reply Patterns
Router-Dealer	The router-dealer combination allows for asynchronous clients interacting with asynchronous servers
Request-Router	The request-router combination allows for an asynchronous server that can be utilized by multiple clients.
▼Authentication
Introduction	Introduction to the authentication section
Security Levels	Defines the various supported security levels in UMPS
User Privileges	Defines the minimum required user-privileges to access various messaging relays
▼ZeroMQ Authentication Protocol	Options for the interacting with the ZeroMQ authentication protocol
Cerficates	The class defining how credentials are stored and how they map to various security levels
▼Authentication Service	Authentication services are run by the uOperator. Whenever a connection is formed, the ZeroMQ will call this service which, in turn, calls the authenticator to validate the connection
Authenticator	The authenticator implements the requisite business logic to validate a connection. It is called by the service
▼Utilities	Programs for interacting adding/updating/removing users from the users table and generating key-pairs
▼User Table	On the server, all user credentials are stored in a single database. This program facilitates interaction with that database
User	This defines a user - who is someone who can be added to the database
▼Logging
Introduction	Introduction to the logging section
Logging Base Class	For those wishing to make their own loggers
Provided Loggers	Useful loggers that ship with UMPS
▼Modules
Module Base Class	This is a container for the processes that constitute a program
Process Base Class	Processes are independent components of a program - e.g., heartbeating
▼Applications
uOperator	The critical message relay hub in the hub and spoke architecture
uCommand	Allows users to interact with locally running modules
uRemoteCommand	Allows privileged users to interact with remotely running modules
