<abstract>
<t>This document defines techniques for representing two types of information mapping in the OSI Directory.</t>
<t>1.  Mapping from a key to a value (or set of values), as might be done in a table lookup.</t>
<t>2.  Mapping from a distinguished name to an associated value (or values), where the values are not defined by the owner of the entry.  This is achieved by use of a directory subtree.</t>
<t>These techniques were developed for supporting MHS use of Directory, but are specified separately as they have more general applicability.</t></abstract></front>
