Abstract
Passing information among processors with different internal data formatting schemes has proven to be a major complication to computer networking efforts. Data format translation is necessary to support information exchange in a heterogeneous network environment. Three strategies for performing this translation for communications between a message sender translation by an intermediate translator, and the use of a standard intermediate format.
