Abstract
Technical standards are the founding pillars of the current human development era: information era. In this revolutionary era, Information and Communications Technology (ICT) did not only get developed, literally from scratch, but it also changed the functioning concept of the whole human society. Innovation in the ICT field is quite strong; however, the ICT development would not come as far in such a short time if innovations were progressing in small increments. Exactly this would have been the case if there were no standards. Only completely organized structures like standards, adopted by multilateral consensus, could give such a strong push to the innovations in the ICT field.
