The standard defines a data model and description format, which is independent of specific vendors, busses, or protocols and which has well-defined semantics for all specification elements. It's written in machine-readable XML, which enables the complete reuse of the data throughout all development phases of an ECU.
Compatibility: Most companies have their own defined guidelines on how their data inside these files should be structured. There are tools with convert/import/export functionality available online.
