Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) is the organization that coordinates and oversees the development of standards in the United States. It serves as the national member body to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and participates in the development of international standards. However, it is not involved in local area network standards or global telephone rates, and does not set standards for how much of the Internet operates. While it may develop some federal information processing standards, this is not its primary focus or purpose.
