Abstract: A distributed system includes a client (102) and a server (120). The client includes a serialization module for serializing data (e.g. XML data) into a first communication format to communicate the data to a server. The server includes a communication format parser for de-serializing the data received into a server-internal communication format. The serialization module is also adapted for transforming the data into the server-internal communication format for a communication to the server. The client is adapted for indicating to the server that the client is capable of sending data in the server-internal communication format, and the server may be able to indicate its readiness to receive such data. The data may be sent either in the first or, alternatively, in the server-internal format.

Abstract: A battery system for electrical devices such as electric vehicles, a battery, a battery loading system, as well as a method for loading electrical vehicles with batteries may be provided. The battery system may comprise a battery container with an inlet channel for a serially inserting multiple batteries with substantially identical shape into the battery container, and a battery holder with a holding mechanism to selectively hold the inserted battery. For each of the battery holders, electrical connectors for connecting the inserted batteries may be available. An ejection may be possible via an outlet channel and an ejection mechanism. The battery may be a substantially spherical shape and have several substantially half-sphere shaped terminals separated by an isolator.
