AgnosEP

AgnosEP provides the main point of entry to initiate EMV transactions for CL acceptance system. It shall be called from the payment application which shall manage two structures:

  • tPaymentContext (in/out)

  • tOutComeParameter (out)

Each time a new transaction is triggered these two structures shall be initialized .That call shall be performed once the system has been properly initialized.

AgnosMW

AgnosMW provides a set of primitives to manage the transient data model. It also defines the C structures used to manage transaction flows, mainly:

  • tPaymentContext

  • tOutComeParameter

Agnos

Agnos provides a set of EMV core primitives which support EMV transaction flow.

...

  • CT payment applications (study emvco.c as an example, or OLA for Agnos)

  • CL card processing applications (alias CL kernels)

...

Agnos is split up into two sets of primitives:

  • Selection set: explicit selection and pse selection.

  • EMV set: Final Select, GPO, Read Record, ODA (SDA,DDA, CDA), CVM, Terminal Action Analysis, Card Action Analysis

...

Agnos provides three modes of execution (see Training modules for more details):

  • Direct Execution (meant for contact): an EMV transaction is peformed from Final Select to Generate AC1

  • Granular Calls (meant for contactless): an EMV transaction is performed step-by-step depending on a specific logic. Each EMV step is directly called and the control is implemented outside the core engine

  • State Machine (meant for contact and contactless): an EMV transaction can be formed performed step-by-step with the control inside and outside the core engine (a mix between to 2 previous modes to reduce the complexity of granular calls sequence)

Callbacks

There are 8 callbacks available at different levels of Agnos Framework API (see architecture model above).
