A segue component for transferring data between a client and server such that the transfer is platform- and protocol-independent. The component is linked to applications in a computer system and connected to a transport medium for transporting data between applications. The component has a logical frame element for delivery to the applications and for collection of data representative of operations associated with the applications; a physical frame element for delivery between a requesting agent and a target agent, the physical frame having a header element and an argument list element; a mechanism for converting data collected at the requesting agent's logical frame into a literal form language-independent format and packaging that data in a byte-oriented format into the requesting agent's physical frame; a mechanism for transporting the data to a target agent; a mechanism for extracting the data from the requesting agent's physical frame into a target agent's physical frame; and a mechanism for parsing that data, for converting it into executable form, and for delivering it to the target agent's logical frame for action.
