Abstract: Communication has been around ever since man developed language and hand signs to exchange and share ideas. Smoke signals were used in the ancient world to send information from one place to another. In fact, a smoke signal is one form of wireless digital communication. The advance in modern communication, network and computer technology has led to the growth of electronic forms of communication. Electronic data can be transferred between workstations in the same office and sometimes even between offices in different cities. Electronic flow computers are used widely by the gas industry for measurement and control purposes. Measurement data is retrieved periodically and stored in the central computer system for accounting, engineering and administrative functions. Control commands are sent by the gas control department or the field operators to the gas flow computers. Data are collected from the field and shared by different departments so that decisions can be made more efficiently. Because of this, an effective communication system between the electronic flow computers, the central computer system and remote offices need to be developed.
