ResumoThis paper introduces a new communication interface, the Information Gateway Service Interface (IGSI) and specifies it in Estelle, one of ISO's standard formal description techniques. IGSI allows a user to select and connect to a variety of information services using a single interactive access device by providing a standard interface for the interworking between communication switches and host computers. Such an interface will result in widening the range of accessible value-added services across communication networks. It will also encourage the development of standard client-server computer supported telecommunications applications in which the communication switch plays the role of the server.
