- Mike, I think that you are probably referring to the ISO Programmers Imaging
- Kernel (PIKS) standard. This was an ANSI X3H3 document before ISO picked it up.
-
- The PIKS standard contains three parts; one is the IPI, a second is an
- architecture overview, and the third an API definition. My copy is about three
- inches thick, most of the volume being the API definition.
-
- Currently the document is at the draft international standard stage, so I am
- not sure if you can get a copy except from one of the people involved.
-
- If you want more info, drop me a note offline at the e-mail address above.
