XDR: External Data Representation standard

An Implementation of the Shared Data Formats Standard for Distributed Shared Memories

Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) is a mechanism by which processes can share data over a network using the memory abstraction 3]. The processors may be heterogeneous, one diierence being that they use incompatible data formats for such basic types as integers. Programmers need a programming mechanism for dealing with these diierences. In this paper we describe a compiler which supports IEEE 1596...

The Use of ASN.1 and XDR for Data Representation in Real-Time Distributed Systems

This report provides an overview of two standards that are used for data specification and representation in distributed systems. The standards considered are the Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) and the external data representation (XDR). Standards for data representation are appropriate for the development of real-time distributed systems, particularly loosely coupled, heterogeneous syste...

Serializing C intermediate representations for efficient and portable parsing ( preprint ) Jeffrey

C static analysis tools often use intermediate representations (IRs) that organize program data in a simple, well-structured manner. However, the C parsers that create IRs are slow, and because they are difficult to write, only a few implementations exist, limiting the languages in which a C static analysis can be written. To solve these problems, we investigate two language-independent, on-dis...
