  This document contains the documentation of TOBI (Tools for BCI) Interface D
(TiD). TiD tries to establish a standardized interface for event transmission
in neuroscience experiments. It is designed in a client-server architecture.
Clients are connecting to a single server and events are delivered in a
"bus-like" manner. TiD events are based on XML messages. So TiD messages can
also get custom extended. A cross platform C++ library is available and
provides all TiD functionality. To avoid jitter effect, hampering event
processing, TiD was optimized towards performance. The documentation provides
further performance tweaks to decrease TiD message processing latency and also
decrease event timing jitter.
