    Area of Science:

    • Computer Science
    • Telecommunications

    Background:

    • Data transfer between diverse computer systems (e.g., mainframes, PCs, word processors) is often hindered by incompatible storage media.
    • Lack of common physical media necessitates alternative data transmission methods.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the viability and methods of data transfer between dissimilar computer systems using the telephone network.
    • To highlight the importance of telecommunication protocols in enabling intersystem data exchange.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing the telephone network for data transmission between various computer systems.
    • Employing common telecommunication protocols, such as those supporting ASCII data at 300 or 1200 baud.
    • Demonstrating data transfer using systems like IBM/DEC mainframes, Wang word processors, IBM PCs, and Atari 800 microcomputers.

    Main Results:

    • Successful data transmission is achievable through understanding and applying telecommunication protocols.
    • The Atari 800 was effectively used as an APL terminal for data transfer, supporting custom character sets and standard ASCII text.
    • Common protocols enable data exchange at 300 and 1200 baud, facilitating communication between different computer architectures.

    Conclusions:

    • Telecommunication protocols are crucial for overcoming hardware incompatibilities in data transfer.
    • The telephone network provides a flexible and accessible medium for computer data exchange when protocols are correctly implemented.
    • Diverse computing environments can effectively communicate and transfer data using established telecommunication standards.
