I just did a search on "abstract syntax" and found out that there is
an ISO standard dealing with asbtract syntax. The standard is ISO 8824/8825, and
it deals with ASN.1, with "ASN" short for "Abstract Syntax Notation".

Some info is available from the non-broken links on

http://www.usrconsult.be/Reference_Documents/ISO_8824_8825.shtml

Also, http://www.isi.salford.ac.uk//books/osi/chap8.html gives some
kind of overview.

I can't tell if this standard is or will be relevant to some of your efforts.
A glance at the latter URL should tell you pretty quickly, I would guess.

I just wanted to bring it to your attention.

Jim
