Rather, neutral formats and transmitting media are defined in order to enable niore cost-effective ways to distribute information for computer users than by sending printed documents. These technical data include narrative text , tab

14、dustrial societies share a common interest in exchanging data in electronic form because the exchange of information in printed paper form is proving to be more costly in overall handling and use. Also, as industry and government continue their evolution towards higher levels of automation, the need

15、 exists to provide data in computer sensible form so that computer systems can process and operate on the data. A recent movement towards this end is the Computer-aided Acquisition and Logistics Support (CALS) initiative of the Department of Defense. This specification complies with the intent of CA

17、book-form information in electronic form. 1.4 Approach: While it is recognized that certain CALS objectives, such as Accordingly, the general approach for standards interchange is initially to provide for interchanging that data converted from existing paper publications. protocols that will be used

18、 for the initial conversion and interchange. However, full details have not yet been developed for later upgrading. This specification will be revised for the purpose of including formats lar processable, logical content of tables and graphs, and including detailed procedures for on-line transfer me

19、chanisms. The logical form of tables and the addition of search parameters will enable using database management system queries to find particular parts, materials, processes, etc. As this specification is enhanced by revisions, a strategy for upgrading the formats of computerized data will also be

20、provided. This specification is rigorous for those formats and - SAE AS*4L59 88 a 8357340 0033298 2 a AS 4159 se= Page 4 1.4 1.5 (Continued) : Initial conversion of standards data is expected to yield most graphics data in the minimally acceptable formats such as scanned images. initially using mini

This approach may be viewed as a series of phases moving toward a preferred end state. An implementation strategy for this approach is in
