Relation between CommonJS, AMD and RequireJS

I'm still very confused about CommonJS, AMD and RequireJS, even after reading a lot.

I know that CommonJS (formerly ServerJS) is a group for defining some JavaScript specifications (i.e. modules) when the language is used outside the browser. CommonJS modules specification has some implementation like Node.js or RingoJS, right?

What's the relation between CommonJS, Asynchronous Module Definition (AMD) and RequireJS?

Is RequireJS an implementation of the CommonJS module definition? If yes, what's AMD then?

If this is related to Servers try repost your question at AMD Server Gurus: https://community.amd.com/t5/server-gurus/ct-p/amd-server-gurus

If you are a developer then do the same here for AMD Developer's Forum: https://community.amd.com/t5/newcomers-start-here/bd-p/newcomer-forum
