Well, there is the Serial programming HOWTO at:
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Serial-Programming-HOWTO/

I can also point you to a software project that has working driver 
daemons, libraries, and language bindings for Perl, python, and PHP to 
communicate with 1-wire devices.

http://owfs.sourceforge.net/

If you really want to make your own 1-wire protocol implementation, I 
guess you could use it for reference to see how it works.

Hope this helps,
