Standardisation Involvement
ACCU actively supports the standardisation process for computer programming languages. ACCU has provided financial sponsorship of meetings in the UK for both the ISO C working group and the ISO C++ working groups. Additionally, ACCU has helped finance travel of UK experts to ECMA meetings in mainland Europe.
A number of ACCU members are also members of their national standards organization' groups that send delegates to the ISO working group meetings. Several members of the United Kingdom's national body's sub-committees, the IST5 committee of the British Standards Institution, are also ACCU members. The working groups are developing the next versions of various programming language standards, specifically for C and C++.

Famous quotes containing the word involvement:
“It may be tempting to focus on the fact that, even among those who support equality, men’s involvement as fathers remains a far distance from what most women want and most children need. Yet it is also important to acknowledge how far and how fast many men have moved towards a pattern that not long ago virtually all men considered anathema.”
—Katherine Gerson (20th century)
