Portable Operating System Interface for UNIX (POSIX)

Portable Operating System Interface for UNIX (POSIX): An Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standard that defines a set of operating-system services. Programs that adhere to the POSIX standard can be easily ported from one system to another. POSIX was based on UNIX system services, but it was created in a way that allows it to be implemented by other operating systems.
