Brett:

I don't have the "official" ISO source document.  I'd suggest though that
a key early paper is that by Hubert Zimmerman in 1980.

Zimmermann, Hubert

   "OSI Reference Model--The ISO Model of Architecture for Open
   Systems Interconection," IEEE Transactions on Communications,
   Vol. Com-28, No. 4, April 1980.
