DIG64 - Developer’s
Interface Guide for IA-64 Servers
Leading hardware and software vendors have formed an industry group to develop
the DIG64 guidelines. These guidelines establish basic system building blocks,
interfaces, and programming conventions for upcoming IA-64 based servers and
their system-level software in order to define hardware and software
compatibility and interoperability.

DMTF
With more than 4,000 active participants representing 44 countries and nearly 200 organizations, the Distributed Management Task Force, Inc. (DMTF) is the industry organization leading the development, adoption and promotion of interoperable management standards and initiatives. DMTF management technologies are critical to enabling management interoperability among multi-vendor systems, tools, and solutions within the enterprise. By deploying solutions that support DMTF standards, IT managers can choose to deploy a mix of systems and solutions that best meet their users’ needs, while reducing management complexity and total cost of ownership.

OpenFabrics Alliance
Founded in June 2004 as the OpenIB Alliance, the organization was originally focused on developing a standardized, Linux-based InfiniBand software stack. In 2005, the Alliance committed itself to supporting Windows, a move that would make the Alliance’s software stack truly cross-platform. And in 2006, the organization again expanded its charter to include support for iWARP, which is a competing transport technology to InfiniBand. Today, the vision of the OpenFabrics Alliance is to deliver a unified, cross-platform, transport-independent software stack for RDMA.

PCI-SIG
Formed in 1992, the Peripheral Component Interconnect Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG) is the industry organization chartered to develop and manage the PCI standard. With over 900 members, the PCI-SIG effectively places ownership and management of the PCI specifications in the hands of the developer community. A Board of Directors comprised of nine people, each elected by the membership, leads the PCI-SIG.

UEFI
The Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) specification defines a new model for the interface between operating systems and platform firmware. The interface consists of data tables that contain platform-related information, plus boot and runtime service calls that are available to the operating system and its loader. Together, these provide a standard environment for booting an operating system and running pre-boot applications.The Unified EFI Forum is the group responsible for developing, managing and promoting the UEFI specifications.
