   Open Distributed Processing
   ODP
      <standard> (ODP) An attempt to standardise an OSI
      application layer communications architecture.  ODP is a
      natural progression from OSI, broadening the target of
      standardisation from the point of interconnection to the end
      system behaviour.  The objective of ODP is to enable the
      construction of distributed systems in a multi-vendor
      environment through the provision of a general architectural
      framework that such systems must conform to.  One of the
      cornerstones of this framework is a model of multiple
      viewpoints which enables different participants to observe a
      system from a suitable perspective and a suitable level of
      abstraction.
