"IS0 10303 is an International Standard for the
computer-interpretable representation and exchange of product data. The objective
is to provide a neutral mechanism capable of describing product data throughout
the life cycle of a product independent from any particular system. The
nature of this description makes is suitable not only for neutral file exchange,
but also as a basis for implementation and sharing product databases and
archiving.
This International Standard is organized as a series of parts, each published
separately. The parts of ISO 10303 fall into one of the following series:
description methods, integrated resources, application interpreted constructs,
application protocols, abstract test suites, implementation methods, and
conformance testing. The series are described in ISO 10303-1. This part
of ISO 10303 is a member of the application protocol series." -- ISO
