Inactive-Withdrawn Standard

IEEE 949-1985

IEEE Trial-Use Standard for Media-Independent Information Transfer

The purpose of this standard is to define a format for the transmission of files and their attributes between computer systems, independent of the medium of transmission. It is intended that any information medium capable of representing a consecutive sequence of 8-bit bytes should be adaptable to the format specified in this standard. The format is designed to facilitate the human interface to file selection from transmissions by foreign systems.
