Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) - was a standards and trade organization composed as an alliance of trade associations for electronics manufacturers in the United States. They developed standards to ensure the equipment of different manufacturers was compatible and interchangeable. The EIA ceased operations on February 11, 2011, but the former sectors continue to serve the constituencies of EIA.
2. American National Standards Institute (ANSI) - Founded in 1918, ANSI is a voluntary organization composed of over
1,300 members (including all the large computer companies) that creates standards for the computer industry. For example, ANSI C is a version of the C language that has been approved by the ANSI committee. To a large degree, all ANSI C compilers, regardless of which company produces them, should behave similarly.
3. Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) - describes itself as "the world's largest technical professional
society -- promoting the development and application of electrotechnology and allied sciences for the benefit of humanity, the advancement of the profession, and the well-being of our members.
4. Ecma International - is an international, private (membership-based) non-profit standards organization for information
and communication systems. It acquired its current name in 1994, when the European Computer Manufacturers Association (ECMA) changed its name to reflect the organization's global reach and activities. As a consequence, the name is no longer considered an acronym and no longer uses full capitalization.
5. Comit Consultatif International Tlphonique
etTlgraphique (CCITT) - an organization that sets international communications standards. CCITT, now known as ITU (the parent organization) has defined many important standards for data communications.
6. International Organization for Standardization (ISO) - is the worlds largest developer of voluntary International
Standards. International Standards give state of the art specifications for products, services and good practice, helping to make industry more efficient and effective. Developed through global consensus, they help to break down barriers to international trade.
7. Internet Network Information Center (InterNIC) - was the Internet governing body primarily responsible for domain
name allocations from 1972 until September 18, 1998 when this role was assumed by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). It was accessed through the domain name internic.net, with email, FTP and World Wide Web services run at various times by SRI, Network Solutions, Inc and AT&T. The InterNIC also coordinated the IP address space; including performing IP address management for North America prior to the formation of ARIN.
8. Internet Society (ISOC) - is an international, non-profit organization founded in 1992 to provide leadership
in Internet related standards, education, and policy. It states that its mission is "to assure the open development, evolution and use of the Internet for the benefit of all people throughout the world". The Internet Society has offices near Washington, DC, USA, and in Geneva, Switzerland. It has a membership base comprising more than 130 organizational and more than 55,000 individual members. Members also form "chapters" based on either common geographical location or special interests. There are currently more than 90 chapters around the world.
9. Internet
Architecture Board (IAB) - is the committee charged with oversight of the technical and engineering development of the Internet by the Internet Society (ISOC). It oversees a number of Task Forces, of which the most important are the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF).
10. Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) - develops and promotes Internet standards, cooperating closely with
the W3C and ISO/IEC standards bodies and dealing in particular with standards of the TCP/IP and Internet protocol suite. It is an open standards organization, with no formal membership or membership requirements.
11. Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG) - is a body composed of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) chair
and area directors. It provides the final technical review of Internet standards and is responsible for day-to-day management of the IETF. It receives appeals of the decisions of the working groups, and the IESG makes the decision to progress documents in the standards track.
