Common Type System (CTS) & Common Language Specification (CLS)
As mentioned previously a number of different programming languages
target the CLI allowing, for example, code from C# sources to interact
with code from Visual Basic. In order to achieve this feat, each
language must have the same concept of how data types are stored in
memory. The CTS, therefore, defines how a CLI compatible language must
view the bit patterns of values and layout and behavior of objects to
ensure interoperability.
The CLS is essentially a subset of the CTS aimed at creating interoperable libraries
