IEEE 1003.23-1998

To describe a process for developing user Open Environment (OSE) profiles, as opposed to standardized profiles. The guide shall include a framework for documenting user requirements, related information technology services, a transition plan, conformance testing and consideration planning considerations, and examples of user organization OSE profiles.

To provide process guidelines for user organizations to develop and use OSE profiles which support their operational requirements. Benefits include: Provide a starting point for developing user OSE profile; assist development of transition plans; encourage effective use of standards and standardized profiles.

New IEEE Standard - Inactive-Withdrawn. This guide presents an overview of User Organization Open System Environment (OSE) Profiles and their application. It is intended to assist users, planners, and implementers in developing User Organization OSE Profiles that address the operational requirements of the organization; related information technology services; and the standards, standards options, and interim solutions that will meet those requirements. The guide also includes conformance testing and transition planning considerations as well as examples of user organization OSE profiles.
