An interchange is a location where two things meet, usually perform some kind of exchange, and possibly go on their ways again. It is most commonly used in two contexts:
- Transportation:
- A collection of ramps, exits, and entrances between two highways is an interchange.
- A Cross-platform interchange is a connection between two lines of a metro system.
- Computers:
- Electronic Data Interchange is the computer-to-computer exchange of business data in a standard format.
- The Peripheral Interchange Program was software to enable computers to exchange files.
- ASCII is the American Standard Code for Information Interchange.
- Interchange software is an open source application server for electronic commerce.
