Common Understanding
  • As data moves toward the center of the system –


  • It is assumed that every object that is part of, or is utilizing the services of the Unified Implementation of the Reference Architecture, has a common understanding of time, based on Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as defined by the “International Telecommunications Union Recommendation TF.460-6”, to within 1 millisecond absolute to UTC.


  • It is also assumed that every object that is part of, or is utilizing the services of the Unified Implementation of the Reference Architecture, has a common understanding of location, using the DE_Longitude, DE_Latitude and DE_Elevation units as specified in the “SAE J2735 - Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) Message Set Dictionary”.


  • Familiar units are reconstructed at the edges
