NEWS RELEASE Doc. No.: PR/95-030 Washington, D.C., April 13, 1995 -- The JTC 1 TAG announces the U.S. Submission of IEEE Std 896.2-1991 for Fast-Track processing in JTC 1. IEEE Std 896.2-1991, IEEE Standard for Futurebus+ - Physical Layer and Profile Specification, is a composite draft of two separate standards. The first was approved as IEEE Std 896.2 by the IEEE Standards Board in September 1991 and received the ANSI Board of Standards Review approval in June 1992; the second standard was approved as IEEE Std 896.2a by the IEEE Standards Board in March 1994 and received the ANSI Board of Standards Review approval in August 1994. This architecture provides a wide range of performance scalability over both cost and time for multiple generations of single- and multiple-bus multiprocessor systems. This document, a companion standard to ISO/IEC 10857:1994 [ANSI/IEEE Std 896.1, 1994 Edition], builds on the logical layer by adding requirements for physical layer instantiation. Copies of this standard may be obtained from the IEEE Customer Service Department, 445 Hoes Lane, P.O. Box 1331, Piscataway, NJ 08855-1331 or call (800) 687-4433. ** ** ** JTC1 TAG Administrator, Information Technology Industry Council (ITI) 1250 Eye St. NW, Suite 200, Washington, DC 20005 Telephone 202-737-8888; Fax 202-638-4922; Email: jtc1tag@itic.nw.dc.us [END]
