+     <p>The Secure Digital Input/Output (SDIO) protocol is based on the SD
+memory card protocols. The SDIO bus enables high speed data transfers between
+the host and a card. The SDIO consumes low power and is efficient for use
+in mobile devices. SDIO cards like SD cards use star topology that have dedicated
+command and data signals. The purpose of the SDIO APIs is to enable easy porting
+of the Symbian SDIO services for a particular SDIO controller.</p>

+<li><p><b>SDIO controller:</b></p> is the executable that manages access to
+the SDIO card hardware interface and provides an API for class drivers to
+access SDIO card functions.</li>
+</ul><ul>
+<li><p><b> Stack:</b></p>handles multiple requests simultaneously.  It internally
+schedules the requests on to the bus and allocates the appropriate card to
+transfer data accordingly.</li>
+</ul><ul>
+<li><p><b>Session:</b></p> sets up a session object to perform SDIO specific
+command sequences.</li>
+</ul><ul>
+<li><p><b>Register interface:</b></p> allows single byte read/write operations
+to a given register address together with the corresponding ones for multi-byte
+access. </li>
