Subfamilies
  • Standard S Light
    Technical standards may exist as closed or controlled documents that contain trade secrets or classified information
  • Standard M Light
    There are many different standards in many fields of daily life. Standards are important so that correct comparisons can be produced.
  • Standard L Light
    In social sciences a voluntary standard that is also a de facto standard is a typical solution to a coordination problem. The choice of a de facto standard tends to be stable in situations in which all parties can realize mutual gains, but only by making mutually consistent decisions. In contrast, an enforced de jure standard is a solution to the prisoner's problem.
  • Standard S Light Oblique
    Although ANSI itself does not develop standards, the Institute oversees the development and use of standards by accrediting the procedures of standards developing organizations.
  • Standard M Light Oblique
    ANSI was most likely formed in 1918, when five engineering societies and three government agencies founded the American Engineering Standards Committee (AESC).
  • Standard L Light Oblique
    In 1928, the AESC became the American Standards Association (ASA). In 1966, the ASA was reorganized and became United States of America Standards Institute (USASI). The present name was adopted in 1969.
  • Standard S Regular
    Standards often get reviewed, revised and updated on a regular basis. It is critical that the most current version of a published standard be used or referenced.
  • Standard M Regular
    USB for high speed serial interface in computers and for powering or charging low power external devices (like mobile phones, headphones, portable hard drives) usually using micro USB plug and socket.
  • Standard L Regular
    AutoCAD DXF, an ASCII format for import and export of CAD drawings and fragments in the 1980s and 1990s. In the 2000s, XML based standards emerged as de facto standards.
  • Standard S Regular Oblique
    In social sciences a voluntary standard that is also a de facto standard is a typical solution to a coordination problem. The choice of a de facto standard tends to be stable in situations in which all parties can realize mutual gains, but only by making mutually consistent decisions. In contrast, an enforced de jure standard is a solution to the prisoner's problem.
  • Standard M Regular Oblique
    The IBM Personal Computer: by one year after its 1981 release, John Dvorak described the PC as rapidly becoming a de facto standard microcomputer. With the MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows operating systems, it gained a large share of the personal computer market.
  • Standard L Regular Oblique
    For example, a physical property of a material is often affected by the precise method of testing: any reference to the property should therefore reference the test method used.
  • Standard S Medium
    A standard specification is an explicit set of requirements for an item, material, component, system or service. It is often used to formalize the technical aspects of a procurement agreement or contract.
  • Standard M Medium
    A standard test method describes a definitive procedure that produces a test result. It may involve making a careful personal observation or conducting a highly technical measurement.
  • Standard L Medium
    Because of the great influence of the IBM PC on the personal computer market, competing products like the Rainbow 100 were eventually withdrawn.
  • Standard S Medium Oblique
    A technical standard is an established norm or requirement for a repeatable technical task which is applied to a common and repeated use of rules, conditions, guidelines or characteristics for products or related processes and production methods, and related management systems practices.
  • Standard M Medium Oblique
    PCI Express electrical and mechanical interface, and interconnect protocol used in computers, servers, and industrial applications.
  • Standard L Medium Oblique
    Use of programming languages R and Python in science and engineering disciplines, other than computer science, where automated analysis of data is required, while remaining simple enough for a non-professional.
  • Standard S Semibold
    PDF was first created in 1993 by Adobe. Adobe internal standards were part of its software quality systems, but they were neither published nor coordinated by a standards body.
  • Standard M Semibold
    Joint technical committee on information technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) developed a procedure in order for de facto standards to be processed through the formal standardization system to be transformed into international standards from ISO and IEC.
  • Standard L Semibold
    Voluntary consensus standards quicken the market acceptance of products while making clear how to improve the safety of those products for the protection of consumers.
  • Standard S Semibold Oblique
    The ANSI/APSP (Association of Pool & Spa Professionals) standards used for pools, spas, hot tubs, barriers, and suction entrapment avoidance.
  • Standard M Semibold Oblique
    There are many examples of de facto consolidation of a standard by market forces and competition, in a two-sided market, after a dispute, for example with VHS and Betamax in the videotape format war.
  • Standard L Semibold Oblique
    Phone connector (3.5 mm jack), RCA and XLR connectors, used in the audio industry for connecting audio equipment such as headphones, mixing desks, microphones, stage lighting, etc.
  • Standard S Bold
    A standard is a basis for comparison. Standards are made either by many people that agree on something, or if some organisation makes it so.
  • Standard M Bold
    The IBM Personal Computer: by one year after its 1981 release, John Dvorak described the PC as rapidly becoming a de facto standard microcomputer. With the MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows operating systems, it gained a large share of the personal computer market.
  • Standard L Bold
    Microsoft Word DOC. Due to the market dominance of Word, it is supported by all office applications that intend to compete with it, typically by reverse engineering the undocumented file format.
  • Standard S Bold Oblique
    International standards is one way of overcoming technical barriers in inter-local or inter-regional commerce caused by differences among technical regulations and standards developed independently and separately by each local, local standards organisation, or local company.
  • Standard M Bold Oblique
    In contrast, a custom, convention, company product, corporate standard, and so forth that becomes generally accepted and dominant is often called a de facto standard.
  • Standard L Bold Oblique
    International standards is one way of overcoming technical barriers in inter-local or inter-regional commerce caused by differences among technical regulations and standards developed independently and separately by each local, local standards organisation, or local company.
  • Standard S Heavy
    According to Adam Stanton, the first permanent secretary and head of staff in 1919, AESC started as an ambitious program and little else. Staff for the first year consisted of one executive, Clifford B. LePage, who was on loan from a founding member, ASME.
  • Standard M Heavy
    International standards is one way of overcoming technical barriers in inter-local or inter-regional commerce caused by differences among technical regulations and standards developed independently and separately by each local, local standards organisation, or local company.

  • Standard S Black
    PCI Express electrical and mechanical interface, and interconnect protocol used in computers, servers, and industrial applications.
  • Standard M Black
    Use of programming languages R and Python in science and engineering disciplines, other than computer science, where automated analysis of data is required, while remaining simple enough for a non-professional.
  • Standard L Black
    For example, a physical property of a material is often affected by the precise method of testing: any reference to the property should therefore reference the test method used.
  • Standard S Black Oblique
    Communication protocols such as Morse code and USB are standards that allow different machines and people to communicate.
  • Standard M Black Oblique
    Technical barriers arise when different groups come together, each with a large user base, doing some well established thing that between them is mutually incompatible.
  • Standard L Black Oblique
    In social sciences a voluntary standard that is also a de facto standard is a typical solution to a coordination problem. The choice of a de facto standard tends to be stable in situations in which all parties can realize mutual gains, but only by making mutually consistent decisions.
