It also bothers me that so many ways to describe binary data are being used out there. This is a problem that deserves being solved.
Is there a survey paper somewhere about binary formats? What formats are used in particle physics, bio-informatics, astronomy, etc? What software is used to read and write binary data? What descriptive languages are used for data (SQL, XML, etc)?
