Standards Consensus and OMI Coordination

STANDARDS II - 8210

Keywords OMI standards

Start Date: To be announced / Duration: To be announced

Objectives

This project will continue the work of OMI/STANDARDS in providing a framework for consensus on the necessary standards to facilitate the exploitation of the results of OMI and in providing a focal point for OMI programme management and coordination. Its objectives are to:

continue the OMI/STANDARDS consensus mechanism across all OMI projects to agree standards to be adopted within OMI
identify relevant emerging (world-wide) standards, and to co-ordinate between OMI projects so that the interest of the OMI are appropriately represented in corresponding standards definition activities
identify requirements for new standards, to co-ordinate between OMI projects to ensure that these are developed, to continue the OMI/STANDARDS open review procedure to ensure widest applicability and support
coordinate between OMI projects so that OMI standards are promulgated internationally
establish a compliance infrastructure to enable independent certification of compliance with OMI standards (1995, then ongoing)
determine the most effective business communications channels to assist the penetration of OMI into the most important industrial sectors
demonstrate the feasibility of the ELI concept with a silicon demonstrator
identify, define and demonstrate the interfaces needed to integrate the tools required for system design using OMI supercells
