Method of structuring messages for exchanging data and/or for synchronizing processes in a data processing system wherein at least two stations are connected to each other via a serial bus
The invention is directed to a method for structuring messages for the exchange of data and/or for the synchronization of processes in data processing systems. A message includes at least elements with respect to start (start-bit, SOF), identification (also called identifier) and data with one bit field (IDE-field, IDE-bit) having at least one bit for characterizing the length of the identifier.
