This page contains the links to all 55 Generic Functions that this OIAm repository positions in the infrastructure landscape. They are grouped by the Working Area under which they reside.

Currently, we are in the process of the introduction of a renewed vocabulary. It is a further development of the Generic Functions presented below. There are a number of significant changes in the new approach:
|
Every Generic Function can also have a dedicated icon; a handy overview of the icons present can be found here. Generic Functions also have a brief description; the comprehensive list of GFs and their brief description can be found in this list.
There are no pending Generic Function proposals.
Note: the following Generic Function is deprecated:
