Abstract: A cloud operating system (COS) and a computer system and method using the cloud operating system to perform electronic data interchange transfers of documents, converted as needed to file formats usable by receiving entities. The COS is configured to operate on a plurality of machines including an external computer system hosting a single server component and a database system-wide critical state/counter tables, and one or more server clusters interacting with the server component and state/counter database.

Abstract: A system and method for transforming an input document in a first format into an output document in a second format extends XSD to work with non-XML data structures and data formats such as EBCDIC through the application of specialized patterns embedded in an XSD document. A communication adapter interprets the patterns and applies them to convert a flat file into an XML document (and vice versa) which can be viewed in a web browser. The system includes: a communication adapter for translating an XML source file into the output document; a network access translation firewall; a load balancer; a web portal; an offline processor for creating ffXSD and XSLT documents; and an input/output subsystem for interacting with an end user, the subsystem comprising a network interface.
