Language-independent Specification
A language-independent specification (LIS) is a programming language specification providing a common interface usable for defining semantics applicable toward arbitrary language bindings. LIS's are language-agnostic; they mitigate the risk that a certain language binding might reduce compatibility with other languages. An ideal LIS allows the language bindings to take advantage of features of a programming language uncompromisingly. Examples of LIS include Interface description language, Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator and Common Language Infrastructure. Recursive transcompiling can be used to distribute a language independent specification across many different technologies, with each technology potentially keeping an authoritative description of a different part of the specification. Recursive transcompiling provides the general methodology for distributing this authoritative information through the rest of the derivative code Derivative code or Chameleon ...

Language Independent Arithmetic
ISO/IEC 10967, Language independent arithmetic (LIA), is a series of standards on computer arithmetic. It is compatible with ISO/IEC/IEEE 60559:2011, more known as IEEE 754-2008, and much of the specifications are for IEEE 754 special values (though such values are not required by LIA itself, unless the parameter ''iec559'' is true). It was developed by the working group ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG11, which was disbanded in 2011. LIA consists of three parts: * Part 1: ''Integer and floating point arithmetic'', second edition published 2012. * Part 2: ''Elementary numerical functions'', first edition published 2001. * Part 3: ''Complex integer and floating point arithmetic and complex elementary numerical functions'', first edition published 2006. Parts Part 1 Part 1 deals with the basic integer and floating point datatypes (for multiple radices, including 2 and 10), but unlike IEEE 754-2008 not the representation of the values. Part 1 also deals with basic arithmetic, including compar ...

Language Independent Data Types
ISO/IEC 11404, General Purpose Datatypes (GPD), are a collection of datatypes defined independently of any particular programming language or implementation. These datatypes can be used to describe interfaces to existing libraries without having to specify the language (such as Fortran or C). The first edition of this standard was published in 1996 under the title " Language-independent datatypes". The standard was revised by the responsible ISO sub-committee (JTC1/SC22 ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22 Programming languages, their environments and system software interfaces is a standardization subcommittee of the Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1 of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the Inte ... - Information Technology - Programming languages). The revised version has the new title "General Purpose Datatypes". External links ISO/IEC 11404:2007 complete text of ''General purpose datatypes''. Data types #11404 {{compu-prog-stub ...
