PC/SC and OCF have a different platform environment scope, since OCF is only Java-based. They do have, however, very similar concepts. Within the Windows environment, OCF can benefit from the PC/SC smart card reader drivers, by using the PC/SC Resource Manager. A PC/SC card terminal that takes advantage of the PC/SC Resource Manager already exists for the OCF.
