15、the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISOmember bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technicalcommittees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committ
16、ee has been established hasthe right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, inliaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International ElectrotechnicalCommission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnica

20、 clients of the SABS .ISO 15188:2001(E) ISO 2001 All rights reserved vIntroductionThe use of consistent terminology upon which users publicly agree reflects the quality of the final version of adocument in technical subjects. The objective of terminology standardization, which is the unification and
21、harmonization of concepts, concept systems, terms and definitions, is to obtain a normative vocabulary in which onlyone term corresponds to one concept and only one concept corresponds to one term (ISO 10241), thus reducingambiguity caused by polysemy, synonymy or homonymy and allowing for the creat
22、ion of new terms in accordancewith the principles and methods of terminology (ISO 704).Standardized terminology, which results from the process of terminology standardization, consists of sets of single-concept designations belonging to special languages (ISO 1087-1) used in the various subject-fiel
23、ds of humanknowledge. It improves communication and provides better access to and management of information. There areeconomic benefits to be derived when general consensus is achieved on the meaning of terms. This in turncontributes to the harmonization of concepts and terms (ISO 860), which facili
24、tates trade and improves nationalproductivity and access to international markets. Inconsistent use of terminology may lead to misunderstandings andpotential economic losses.The aim of standardization in terminology project management is to facilitate terminology standardization and toavoid the cost
25、 that would result from reworking proposed or existing standardized terminologies, and also fromproducing a terminology that lacks uniformity or fails to meet the requirements of the user. The ultimate objective isto keep the project productive and cost-efficient.SANS 15188:2009This s tandard may on

27、elines for terminology standardizationWARNING It is of primary importance that technical committees carrying out terminology work follow theprinciples laid down by ISO/TC 37 (see Bibliography). Other terminology standardization projects should besubject to the same principles.The ISO/TC 37 documents
28、 form the basis for terminology standardization and ensure a commonunderstanding of policies and procedures with respect to terminology work. They should be used to ensureconsistency in the standardization of terminologies.Experienced terminologists should be consulted whenever possible. For informa
29、tion and assistance interminology work, contact a national terminology organization or the ISO/TC 37 Secretariat at the followingaddress:Simmeringer Hauptstrasse 24A- 1110 Vienna, AustriaTelephone: +43 1 74040 441Fax: +43 1 74040 740E-mail: infopointinfoterm.org1 ScopeThis International Standard spe
30、cifies guidelines setting out the phases and procedures to be followed in terminologystandardization projects, as well as harmonization and uniformity projects, both inside and outside the framework ofinternational standardization. It is divided into two sections, the first one dealing with terminol
31、ogy standardization ingeneral, and the second dealing with terminology standardization within international standards bodies (ISO, forexample). It answers a need expressed by many members of national and international standards bodies andmanagers of terminology working groups for a standard on the m
32、anagement of terminology standardization projects,rather than solely on the processes of terminology work, project management or quality assurance, which arecovered in other standards.It does not stipulate the principles of terminology work, which are treated in other ISO/TC 37 standards (see ISO 70
33、4for example), nor the methodological approach to international harmonization of concepts, concept systems, termsand definitions, which are treated in ISO 860. It also does not deal with the rules for the preparation and layout ofinternational terminology standards, outlined in ISO 10241, or provide
34、 advice for creating and using terminologicaldatabases, found in ISO/TR 12618. Finally, it does not deal with the guidelines on quality in project managementfound in ISO 10006.These guidelines should be applied to all phases of terminology standardization projects, from the initial identificationof
35、needs to the final satisfaction of requirements and user expectations.2 Normative referencesThe following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions ofthis International Standard.

46、e 1).4.2.2 FeasibilityAn evaluation of the feasibility of a project in terminology standardization involves:a) establishing the purpose of the project (who wants to do what for whom?);b) identifying the potential user(s) and their needs. This may be done by interviewing or administering aquestionnai
47、re to the members of the group involved;c) identifying situations where significant risk could be incurred should misunderstandings arise and user groupsrequire harmonization (ISO 860).4.2.3 FrameworkThe description of the legal, financial and organizational framework of the project involves:a) defi
48、ning the legal aspects of the terminologies to be researched and standardized. Who owns the information?Who has the right to sell it, in part or in its entirety? Who is entitled to access the information and when?b) defining the financial aspects of the project. Who contributes financially to the pr
49、oject? What are the terms andconditions of this contribution? What are the amounts involved? Has a lump sum been allocated to the project ordoes budgeting depend on a detailed cost analysis which takes into account the number of terms to beresearched, scheduling and human resources?c) identifying the organizations participating in the project and the conditions of their participation;d) identifying pertinent language planning policies;e) identifying which national variants within one language will be included.Table 1 Preparation p
