2、al Commission (IEC) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is

3、responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by

4、the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. ITU 2009 All rights reserved.

5、Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) (Malaga-Torremolinos, 1984; Helsinki, 1993; Geneva, 1996; Montreal, 2000; Florianpolis, 2004; Johannesburg, 2008) The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (Johannesburg, 2008), considering a) t

6、he purposes of the Union set forth in Article 1 of the ITU Constitution relating to the harmonization of telecommunication facilities; b) the duties of the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) as set forth in Chapter III of the Constitution; c) the interest of both the International

7、Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) in certain aspects of telecommunications; d) the common interest of ISO and IEC on the one hand and ITU-T on the other in the development of standards on telecommunication and information technologies, on

8、cables, wires and optical fibres and on protection measures which take full account of the needs of manufacturers, users and those responsible for communication systems; e) the need for mutual agreements on other areas of standardization activity of common interest, along the lines of cooperation in

9、 the field of telecommunication security between Study Group 17 and its counterparts in ISO and IEC, noting a) that the working methods and timing constraints of the organizations concerned are not the same; b) the increasing demands on financial and specialized professional experts in both telecomm

10、unication technology and operations as well as computer science and terminal manufacturing and testing; c) the coordination meeting newly established between the three organizations through their top management; d) the progress made on the basis of existing procedures in the alignment of technical R

11、ecommendations with ISO, IEC and ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 (JTC 1) in areas of joint interest, thanks to the excellent spirit of cooperation which has prevailed; e) the principles of collaboration established between ISO and IEC and particularly with ISO/IEC JTC 1 on information technology

12、 as contained in Recommendation ITU-T A.23 and in the ISO/IEC JTC 1 Directives; f) that other standardization activities of a collaborative nature may require coordination; g) the increasing cost of developing international standards, 2 WTSA-08 Resolution 7 resolves 1 to continue inviting ISO and IE

13、C to examine the ITU-T study programme in the early stages of its studies and vice versa, and to further examine such programmes to take into account ongoing changes, in order to identify subjects where coordination seems desirable, and to so advise the Director of the Telecommunication Standardizat

14、ion Bureau (TSB); 2 to request the Director of TSB, after consultation with the study group chairmen concerned, to reply, and to furnish any additional information requested by ISO and IEC, as it becomes available; 3 to request the Director of TSB to examine and update the programme of cooperation a

15、nd priority of the study items among ITU-T, ISO and IEC and highlight this information on the ITU-T website on a regular basis; 4 to request the Director of TSB, the study groups and the Telecommunication Standardization Advisory Group to consider and propose further improvements to the procedures f

16、or cooperation between ITU-T and ISO and IEC, including setting the priorities for such cooperation; 5 that the necessary contacts with ISO and/or IEC should be at the appropriate levels and coordination methods should be mutually agreed and regular coordination events arranged: for work where text

17、should be drawn up mutually and kept aligned, procedures in accordance with Recommendation ITU-T A.23 and the Guidelines for Cooperation therein apply; for other activities where coordination between ITU-T and ISO and IEC is required (for example in relation to any mutual agreements, such as the Mem

18、orandum of Understanding on standardization in the field of electronic business), clear means of coordination shall be established and regular coordination contacts made; 6 to request the chairmen of study groups to take into account the related work programmes and the progress of projects in ISO, I

19、EC and ISO/IEC JTC 1; further, to cooperate with these organizations as widely as possible and by appropriate means, in order to: ensure that the specifications which have been jointly drawn up remain aligned; collaborate in drawing up other specifications in fields of joint interest; 7 that, for re

20、asons of economy, any necessary collaborative meetings take place as far as possible in association with other meetings; 8 that the report concerning such coordination indicate the status of alignment and compatibility of draft texts on points of common concern, in particular identifying any subject

21、 which could be dealt with in a single organization, and cases where cross-referencing would be helpful to users of published International Standards and Recommendations; 9 to invite administrations to contribute significantly to the coordination between ITU-T on the one hand and ISO and IEC on the other by ensuring adequate coordination of national activities associated with the three organizations.
