The SpaceWire Standard was written at the University of Dundee by STAR-Dundee Managing Director Steve Parkes, with input from engineers across Europe. Although The Standard is registered with the European Cooperation for Space Standardization (The ECSS), it is an open standard and as such is widely used across the world.
