Most MIH work revolves around the realization and standardization of EV technologies. To accomplish this work, MIH promotes the development of reference designs and standards based on Working Group deliverables produced. The governance of Working and Interest Groups will be set forth by the Technical Committee.
There are two types of Groups:
WORKING GROUPS
Working Groups typically produce deliverables (e.g., technical recommendations, specifications, reference designs, sample codes…etc). Working Groups must show that all changes have been (or is being) implemented in at least 2 products by 2 implementers. Each Working Group must have a Charter. To allow rapid progress, Working Groups are intended to be small (typically fewer than 15 people) and composed of experts in the area defined by the charter.
INTEREST GROUPS
The primary goal of an Interest Group is to bring together people who wish to evaluate potential EV technologies and policies. An Interest Group is a forum for the exchange of ideas. Each Interest Group must have a Charter. In principle, Interest Groups have no limit on the number of participants.
GROUP CHARTERS
A Working Group or Interest Group charter must include all the following information.
