In September 2011, the OMG Board of Directors voted to adopt the Vector Signal and Image Processing Library (VSIPL) as the latest OMG specification. Work for adopting the specification was led by [[Mentor Graphics]]' Embedded Software Division, RunTime Computing Solutions, The [[Mitre Corporation]] as well as the High Performance Embedded Computing Software Initiative (HPEC-SI). VSIPL is an application programming interface (API). VSIPL and VSIPL++ contain functions used for common signal processing kernel and other computations. These functions include basic arithmetic, trigonometric, transcendental, signal processing, linear algebra, and image processing. The VSIPL family of libraries has been implemented by multiple vendors for a range of processor architectures, including x86, PowerPC, Cell, and NVIDIA GPUs. VSIPL and VSIPL++ are designed to maintain portability across a range of processor architectures. Additionally, VSIPL++ was designed from the start to include support for parallelism.

Late 2012 early 2013, the group's Board of Directors adopted the Automated Function Point (AFP) specification.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.omg.org/news/releases/pr2013/01-17-13.htm|title=OMG Adopts Automated Function Point Specification|author=Julie Pike|first=|date=2013-01-17|work=OMG|url-status=live|archive-url=|archive-date=|accessdate=August 13, 2016}}</ref> The push for adoption was led by the Consortium for IT Software Quality (CISQ). AFP provides a standard for automating the popular [[function point]] measure according to the counting guidelines of the International Function Point User Group (IFPUG).

On March 27 2014, OMG announced it would be managing the newly formed Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC).<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.omg.org/news/releases/pr2014/03-27-14.htm | title=OMG to Manage the Industrial Internet Consortium | work=OMG | date=2014-03-27 | accessdate=August 13, 2016 | author=Julie Pike}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20140327005635/en/OMG-Manage-Industrial-Internet-Consortium|title=OMG to Manage the Industrial Internet Consortium|date=2014-03-27|website=www.businesswire.com|language=en|access-date=2019-11-07}}</ref>

== Ratified ISO Standards ==

Of the many standards maintained by the OMG, 11 have been ratified as [[International Organization for Standardization|ISO]] standards.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.omg.org/iso/index.htm|title=OMG Specifications are ISO Standards {{!}} Object Management Group|first=|date=|website=www.omg.org|language=en|url-status=live|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=2018-10-11}}</ref> These standards are:
