Enablers

Need for compatibility between the manufacturers of the various parts that will be integrated in ubiquitous computing, such as compatibility between the technical components as well as compatibility between the hardware and software components that need to communicate and corporate efficiently. Also the need for compatibility between future versions of software and hardware and the older ones that will exist will be great in the future.

Inhibitors

Possible inhibitors for the development of international standards could be the various local differences among technical regulations and standards developed independently and separately by each nation, national standards organization, or company.

Technical barriers can also usually arise when different groups come together, each with a large user base, doing some well established thing that between them is mutually incompatible.

Experts

International Standards Organizations

There are many international standards organizations, but the three international organizations having the highest international recognition are the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). All three of these have existed for more than 50 years (founded in 1947, 1906, and 1865, respectively) and they are all based in Geneva, Switzerland.

National Standards Bodies

In general, each country or economy has a single recognized Standards Body (NSB). Examples include ABNT, ANSI, BSI, DGN, DIN, IRAM, JISC, KATS, SABS, SAC, SCC, SIS, SNZ. An NSB is likely the sole member from that economy in ISO.
