Abstract
Functional standards specify a model of a system, a set of operations on the model, and the externally visible effects of these operations. Such standards do not specify how these effects are to be implemented. In short, standards codify the exchange of information across an interface between two functional units and specify what is to be exchanged, but not how the functional units carry out their operations.
