Problem statement:  files are mostly non compatible or non comprehendible across the
                    operating systems or system architectures(including different
                    OS supported on the same architecture!!).            


                    ...also given the context refer to various standards or schema envisaged
                    in the document referred below viz. projects.pdf.


Opportunity:   A file format that encodes the all the neccessary information 
               in it (viz. attributes ...including architecture(n-bit ...notion of d-word
               on some architectures) ...OS ...compression-alogrithm ...etc)
               thus making the interpretable or parsable and usable across the
               operating systems.

Note: The above problem statement having been encountered in various scenarios
      and detailed in various 'Proof of concepts' as mentioned in 
      
       http://uk.geocities.com/ravivenkatus/projects.pdf
       http://ravishankarkv.tripod.com/projects.pdf
        ....apply appropriate
      'use-case' modeling, rationalize and arrive at a workable and feasible 
       solution both commercially and techinically viable.
