The IEEE's Microcomputer Standards Committee commenced in 1986 a unification process for various serial bus implementations of the VME, Multibus II, and Future Bus standards. This effort resulted in the original development of what became the IEEE 1394-1995 standard in Fall 1995. 1394 is based on Apple Computer's original 1394 bus, which was intended as a low-cost replacement for or supplement to the SCSI bus that is a standard feature of Macintosh and PowerMac computers.
