A generic protocol translator including a receiver circuit manager (92) wich receives source information using a socket-type interface (104). The source information then passes through a receiver (106), a message queue (108), a message router (112), and a message converter (110), which converts the information to the destination format using a multi-stage pipelined poly-dimensioned finite state automata based conversion process. The converted message is then sent to the destination device via the message router (112) after being reformatted into the destination protocol identified during the conversion process. The generic protocol translator frees device developers from concerning themselves with the details of existing and future protocols, data formats or application semantics that they must support for inter-device compatibility. |
