12、tion 1 Introduction 1.1 Purpose This document contains a set of procedures for cooperation between ITU-T and ISO/IEC JTC 1. It is written in an informal style, much like a tutorial, to be a practical, educational and insightful reference for both leaders and participants in cooperative work. 1.2 Bac
13、kground The ITU-T and ISO and IEC have long established cooperative relationships. For many years, the continued merging of technologies for which these individual organizations have been responsible has resulted in an increasing interdependency of a growing portion of the work programs. This has le
14、d, for example, to the creation by ISO and IEC of Joint Technical Committee 1 (JTC 1) on Information Technology. Cooperative arrangements between the ITU-T and ISO/IEC have been growing. In June 1988, an ad hoc group of CCITT and ISO/IEC JTC 1 leaders met to review the then existing situation of coo
15、peration. Recognizing that these cooperative efforts will continue to grow, the ad hoc group felt it would be beneficial to develop and document a set of procedures which builds upon past successes to facilitate future efforts. As a result, an Informal Guide on CCITT and ISO/IEC JTC 1 Cooperation wa
16、s produced. This Informal Guide recognized that the areas for cooperative work between CCITT and ISO/IEC JTC 1 are a small portion of the total work program of both organizations. Therefore, it was determined that the practical way to achieve successful cooperation is to work within the flexibility
17、existing within the procedures of each organization rather than to define a fundamentally new framework. Since that time considerable experience has been gained in the use of the procedures. Consequently, a second meeting of the ad hoc group was held in September 1991 to review and refine the proced
18、ures. A draft revised Guide was produced at that meeting and adopted by both CCITT and JTC 1 for interim use, pending formal approval. The draft revised Guide recognized the value of collaboration between the two organizations in building consensus in areas of common interest and in extending this c
19、ollaboration to the publication of common text Recommendations and International Standards to better serve the needs of industry and users. Considerable attention was given to defining efficient collaborative procedures that make the best use of resources to produce timely results. Further revision
20、was made as a result of the formal review and to reflect updated procedures of both organizations. The Guide was adopted by the WTSC and JTC 1 in March 1993. By 1996, with the experience of developing more than 150 collaborative Recommendations | International Standards, the Guide was updated to ref
21、lect insights gained through this experience and to reflect revisions in the procedures of both organizations. The updated Guide was adopted by the WTSC in October 1996 and JTC 1 in December 1996. In 2001, the Guide was again updated to reflect revisions in the procedures of both organizations. The
22、updated Guide was adopted by the ITU-T in November 2001 and JTC 1 in November 2001. 2 Guide for ITU-T and ISO/IEC JTC 1 cooperation In 2010, the Guide was again updated to reflect closer alignment of the JTC 1 procedures to those in common between ISO and IEC, and to reflect revised procedures in th
23、e ITU-T. It also takes into account the common patent policy for ITU-T/ITU-R/ISO/IEC adopted in 2006. The updated Guide was adopted by the ITU-T in February 2010 and JTC 1 in June 2010. 1.3 Organization of the Guide The remainder of clause 1 provides a listing of useful references, definitions and a
24、bbreviations pertinent to ITU-T and JTC 1 cooperation. Clauses 2 and 3 provide tutorial information on the structure and procedures of ITU-T and JTC 1. The detailed procedures for ITU-T and JTC 1 cooperation are given in clauses 4 through 10 and Appendix I. They supplement, and sometimes repeat for
25、clarity, the basic procedures of each organization (for example, those given in WTSA Resolution No. 1, in Recommendation ITU-T A.1 and in the JTC 1 Supplement to ISO/IEC Directives) which remain controlling. Drafting rules for editors to use in the preparation of common text Recommendations | Intern
26、ational Standards are specified in Appendix II. 1.4 References 1.4.1 ITU-T references 1.4.1.1 General Most information about the ITU and the ITU-T can be found on the ITU website at http:/www.itu.int.

28、tion Assembly (WTSA), and includes a listing of the Study Groups and a listing of the Questions allocated to each Study Group. Contribution No. 1 of each Study Group contains the detailed text for each Question assigned to the Study Group by the WTSA. Changes concerning A-series Recommendations and
29、Questions are published via TSB Circulars and available on the ITU website. 1.4.1.2 WTSA Resolutions The latest set of WTSA Resolutions is available on the ITU website at http:/www.itu.int/publ/T-Res/.
