ISO/IEC 9316-2:2000

This International Standard defines the Common Access Method (CAM) for the Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI). The purpose of this International Standard is to define a method whereby multiple environments may adopt a common procedure for the support of SCSI devices. The CAM provides a structured method for supporting peripherals with the software (e.g. device driver) and hardware (e.g., host bus adapter) associated with any computer.
