Abstract
The vision of the ACM Technical Standards Committee is to empower ACM members -- as individual technical experts -- so that they can actively participate in the standards making process. It serves the ACM membership through its Special Interest Groups so as to provide more information about standards and to help the membership appreciate the impact of standards. While particularly prominent users of standards are software engineers and those who purchase systems, the entire ACM membership is ultimately affected by standards.
