+The CLAMP Control Loop Participant Protocol
+###########################################
+
+The CLAMP Control Loop Participant protocol is an asynchronous protocol that is used by the
+CLAMP runtime to coordinate life cycle management of Control Loop instances. The protocol
+supports the functions described in the sections below.
+
+
+Protocol Dialogues
+==================
+
+The protocol supports the dialogues described below.
+
+Participant Registration and De-Registration
+--------------------------------------------
+
+Registration when a participant comes up and update of participant with control loop type
+information and common parameter values for its control loop types.
+
+.. image:: images/clamp-cl-participants/participant-registering.png
+
+
+De-registration is executed as a participant goes down.
+
+.. image:: images/clamp-cl-participants/participant-deregistration.png
+
+
+Control Loop Priming and De-Priming
+-----------------------------------
+
+When a control loop is primed, the portion of the Control Loop Type Definition and Common
+Property values for the participants of each participant type mentioned in the Control Loop
+Definition are sent to the participants.
+
+.. image:: images/clamp-cl-participants/controlloop-priming.png
+
+When a control loop is de-primed, the portion of the Control Loop Type Definition and Common
+Property values for the participants of each participant type mentioned in the Control Loop
+Definition are deleted on participants.
+
+.. image:: images/clamp-cl-participants/controlloop-depriming.png
+
+
+Control Loop Update
+-------------------
+
+Control Loop Update handles creation, change, and deletion of control loops on participants.
+Change of control loops uses a semantic versioning approach and follow the semantics described
+on the page `4.1 Management of Control Loop Instance Configurations <management-cl-instance-configs>`.
+
+.. image:: images/clamp-cl-participants/controlloop-update.png
+
+The handling of a ControlLoopUpdate message in each participant is as shown below.
+
+.. image:: images/clamp-cl-participants/controlloop-update-msg.png
+
+Control Loop State Change
+-------------------------
+
+This dialogue is used to change the state of Control Loops and their Control Loop Elements. The
+CLAMP Runtime sends a Control Loop State Change message on the control loop to all participants.
+Participants that have Control Loop Elements in that Control Loop attempt an update on the state
+of the control loop elements they have for that control loop, and report the result back.
+
+The *startPhase* in the `Definition of TOSCA fundamental Control Loop Types
+<https://github.com/onap/policy-clamp/blob/master/common/src/main/resources/tosca/ControlLoopTOSCAServiceTemplateTypes.yaml>`_
+is particularly important in control loop state changes because sometime the user wishes to control
+the order in which the state changes in Control Loop Elements in a control loop. In state changes
+from *UNITITIALISED* → *PASSIVE* and from *PASSIVE* → *RUNNING*, control loop elements are started in
+increasing order of their *startPhase*. In state changes from *RUNNING* → *PASSIVE* and from *PASSIVE*
+→ *UNITITIALISED*, control loop elements are started in decreasing order of their *startPhase*.
+
+The CLAMP runtime controls the state change process described in the diagram below. The CLAMP runtime
+sends a Control Loop State Change message on DMaaP to all participants in a particular Start Phase so,
+in each state change multiple Control Loop State Change messages are sent, one for each Start Phase in
+the control loop. If more than one Control Loop Element has the same Start Phase, those Control Loop
+Elements receive the same Control Loop State Change message from DMaaP and start in parallel.
+
+The Participant reads each State Change Message it sees on DMaaP. If the Start Phase on the Control
+Loop State Change message matches the Start Phase of the Control Loop Element, the participant processes
+the State Change message. Otherwise the participant ignores the message.
+

+
+The handling of a ControlLoopStateChange message in each participant is as shown below.
+
+.. image:: images/clamp-cl-participants/controlloop-state-change-msg.png
+
+Control Loop Monitoring and Reporting
+-------------------------------------
+
+This dialogue is used as a heartbeat mechanism for participants, to monitor the status of Control Loop
+Elements, and to gather statistics on control loops. The ParticipantStatus message is sent periodically
+by each participant. The reporting interval for sending the message is configurable.
+
+.. image:: images/clamp-cl-participants/controlloop-monitoring.png
+
+
+Messages
+========
+
+The CLAMP Control Loop Participant Protocol uses the following messages. The descriptions below give
+an overview of each message. For the precise definition of the messages, see the `CLAMP code at Github
+<https://github.com/onap/policy-clamp/tree/master/models/src/main/java/org/onap/policy/clamp/controlloop/models/messages/dmaap/participant>`_
+. All messages are carried on DMaaP.
