The DMI Home Page is a repository of all DMI-related information from the specification to tools to support to the Product Registry of DMI-certified products. Due to the rapid advancement of DMTF technologies, such as CIM, DMTF defined an end of life  process for its Desktop Management Interface (DMI), which concluded March 31, 2005.
