ICSR 1 Standards and Standardization Ken Krechmer, Fellow International Center for Standards Research University of Colorado at Boulder e-mail: krechmer@csrstds.com
2
ICSR 2 Definitions Standard: Model, document or concept Standardization: Process of creating, implementing, or using a standard
3
ICSR 3 Definition of a Technical Standard A Technical Standard codifies for a society the constraints upon one or more implementations. These implementations are then used to quantify an entity under examination for the purpose of information transfer within a society.
4
ICSR 4 The Beginnings of Standards DNA is a naturally occurring standard. The system of 10 numeric digits likely was the first technical standard. The term “standard” was first reported in 1138 AD

ICSR 8 Insights Offered by Taxonomy of Standards Etiquettes support new use of value system Government intervention more desirable as new standards successions emerge Patents best applied to similarity Need to control patents in compatibility standards Need to avoid patents in adaptability standards

ICSR 9 Supporting Freedom with Truth Open government - Democracy Free press - First Amendment Available technology - Open standardization
10
ICSR 10 Ten Rights of Open Standardization 1.Open meeting 2.Consensus 3.Due Process Creation 4.Open World 5.Open IPR 6.Open Documents 7.Open Change Use 8.Open Interface 9.Open Use 10.On-going Support Implementation
11
ICSR 11 1.Open meeting – all stake holders may participate in the standards development process. ANSI requirement
12
ICSR 12 2.Consensus – all interests are discussed and agreement found, no domination. ANSI requirement
13
ICSR 13 3.Due Process – balloting and an appeals process may be used to find resolution. ANSI requirement
14
ICSR 14 4.Open World – same standard for the same function, world-wide. ANSI supported
15
ICSR 15 5.Open IPR – holders of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) must identify themselves during the standards development process. Recent ANSI requirement
16
ICSR 16 6.Open Documents – all may access committee documents, drafts and completed standards.
17
ICSR 17 7.Open Change – all changes are presented and agreed in a forum supporting the previous six rights.
18
ICSR 18 8.Open Interface – Supports migration and allows proprietary advantage, but standardized interfaces are not hidden or controlled.
19
ICSR 19 9.Open Use – objective conformance mechanisms for implementation testing and user evaluation.
20
ICSR 20 10.On-going Support – standards are supported until user interest ceases rather than when provider interest declines.

ICSR 21 “ Who ever knew Truth put to the worse, in a free and open encounter?” John Milton, Areopagiticia, A speech for the liberty of unlicensed printing in the Parliament of England, 1644
