Description / Abstract:
This International Standard establishes basic principles and
requirements for ensuring that classification systems are suitable
for worldwide application, considering such aspects as cultural and
linguistic diversity as well as market requirements. By applying
principles relating to terminology work, this International
Standard provides guidelines for creating, handling, and using
classification systems for international environments.
This International Standard addresses the need in many domains
for classification systems that are concept based to ensure that
they are suitable for worldwide use and can be adapted to specific
user communities. It provides information about the design,
development, and use of classification systems that are fully
enabled for diverse linguistic, cultural, and market-based
environments.
This International Standard primarily specifies the factors that
need to be considered when creating and populating a classification
system for use in diverse linguistic environments. These factors
include the specification of principles for incorporating
internationalization aspects into classification systems, and
maintaining and using those aspects for the structuring of
activities, products, services, agents, and other entities of a
company or organization.
The following are within the scope of this International
Standard:
a) guidelines on information content to support
internationalization of classification systems and their underlying
concept systems;
b) terminological principles applicable to classification
systems;
c) requirements for internationalization of classification
systems;
d) considerations on workflow and administration of
classification system content to support worldwide use.
The following are outside the scope of this International
Standard:
— providing formal data models for representing classification
systems in machine-readable form;
— prescribing classification system content for specific
business domains or products;
— harmonization of classification systems.
This International Standard is intended for those who develop
content for classification systems. This includes terminologists
and content managers who are called upon to apply the principles of
terminology work to ensure that cultural and linguistic diversity
are appropriately reflected in classification systems. It is also
relevant for people who design and model appropriate IT tools.
NOTE Formal data models for implementation of classification
systems in information technology environments can be obtained from
technical committees such as ISO/TC 184 or IEC/TC 3.
