What Works Best?

• Informal Dialogue
• Formal Dialogue
• - Our Meeting Here Today
• - MoU - memorandum of understanding
• - Consortium

12
Challenge The Logic

• If Collaborative Standardization is the way
  to move forward, what is the best way?

13
Challenge The Logic

• Model Today 20-80 Rule!
• 20 time devoted to development 80 time
  devoted to harmonization with others
• Ideal Model 80-20 Rule!!!
• 80 effort devoted to co-development 20
  effort devoted to Interoperability issues

14
Challenge The Logic

• DMSC
• AIAG
• I
• ISO Multiple Committees
• NIST
• Common Issues Yes
• Non-Similar Issues Yes
• But in both cases the common goal is to be
• INTEROPERABLE!

15
What is the industry Problem?
