From 1977 to 1982, Internet Engineering Notes (IENs) were used to document and generate discussion about various topics related to the Internet and Internet protocols. One of the challenges facing the early Internet was inconsistent data representation, including byte ordering. IEN 137 addresses this challenge. Note the date of the IEN, which suggests that it is meant to be at least somewhat whimsical, although still addressing an important topic in computer and network systems.
This IEN will describe about the topic of What's the order of Byte Messages. It's fun to read that Internet Engineering notes 137. You can google it for the link.
