This document provides a basic step-by-step approach for achieving non-residential (net) zero-energy buildings (ZEBs). It also describes the basic concept of ZEBs and the items for consideration in this approach. The following are within the scope of this document: — application to non-residential buildings; — annual energy consumption of a ZEB (this includes the operating consumption of the building and excludes the energy consumed by the manufacturing of materials and equipment, and the energy consumed during construction); — renewable energy supply (this can be on-site or off-site, depending on the policy and conditions of the country in which the supply is installed); — application to any climate zone. The following are out of the scope of this document: — recommendations or suggestions for the adoption of any specific technologies or equipment, or both, and materials that are expected to be continuously innovated (however it does stipulate the technologies for selection); — specific methods or calculation formulae for design; — commissioning methods.

This document provides principles for governing bodies of organizations (which can comprise owners, directors, partners, executive managers, or similar) on the effective, efficient and acceptable use of data within their organizations by: applying the governance principles and model of ISO/IEC 38500 to the governance of data; assuring stakeholders that, if the principles and practices proposed by this document are followed, they can have confidence in the organization’s governance of data; informing and guiding governing bodies in the use and protection of data in their organizations. This document can also provide guidance to a wider community, including: executive managers; external businesses or technical specialists, such as legal or accounting specialists, retail or industrial associations, or professional bodies; internal and external service providers (including consultants); auditors. This document applies to the governance of the current and future use of data that is created, collected, stored, secured, protected, or controlled by IT systems, and impacts the management processes and decisions relating to data. This document defines the governance of data as a subset or domain of the governance of IT, which itself is a subset or domain of organizational, or in the case of a corporation, corporate governance. This document is applicable to all organizations, including public and private companies, government entities, and not-for-profit organizations.

This document specifies three methods for the determination of ash from raw rubbers, compounded rubbers and vulcanizates. The methods are applicable to raw, compounded or vulcanized rubbers of the M, N, O, R and U families described in ISO 1629 [1], except that: Method A is not used for the determination of ash from compounded or vulcanized rubbers containing chlorine, bromine or iodine; Method B is used for compounded or vulcanized rubbers containing chlorine, bromine or iodine. It is not applicable to uncompounded rubbers; Method C is intended to be used for the determination of ash from raw, compounded or vulcanized rubber not containing chlorine, bromine or iodine by wrapping the test portion in ashless filter paper; lithium and fluorine compounds can react with silica crucibles to form volatile compounds, giving low ash results. This document does not cover the interpretation of the ash results as to the inorganic chemical content of a compound or vulcanizate, which is the responsibility of the analyst, who must be aware of the behaviour of rubber additives at elevated temperatures.

This document specifies procedures and techniques for obtaining comparable values for the absorptance of optical laser components.

This document specifies test methods for measuring the performance change of electrically powered household and similar air cleaners caused by the loading with particles. The main intention of the document is to compare differences in the performance change between air cleaners exposed to the same loading with particles. The performance change is not necessarily representative for real-use applications since concentration, size, morphology and chemical composition of particles present in household or similar environments can strongly differ.

The present document defines the general aspects of interworking at the Inter-System Interface (ISI) for Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) system supporting Voice plus Data (V+D). Those specify the general concepts which are the basis of the ISI operation between TETRA systems. It introduces the Additional Network Features (ANFs) used at the ISI, and specifies:
• the general protocol mechanism upon which the definition of each ANF is based; and
• the security related functions over the ISI.
The specification of the general transport layer independent protocol mechanism applies to any TETRA Switching and Management Infrastructure (SwMI) which supports the ISI. The security requirements for the ISI only apply to SwMIs which support authentication or end-to-end encryption over the ISI. Besides the ISI general design, the present sub-part, interworking at the Inter-System Interface comprises the following other sub-parts:
• General design, PSS1 over E.1 [3];
• General design, SIP/IP [4];
• Transport layer independent Additional Network Feature Individual Call (ANF-ISIIC) [5];
• Transport layer independent Additional Network Feature Group Call (ANF-ISIGC) [6];
• Transport layer independent Additional Network Feature Short Data Service (ANF-ISISDS) [7];
• Transport layer independent Additional Network Feature, Mobility Management (ANF-ISIMM) [8]; and
• Generic Speech Format Implementation [9].

The present document defines the stage 3 specifications of the Supplementary Service Dynamic Group Number Assignment (SS-DGNA) for the Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA). The SS-DGNA enables a user to dynamically define group identities and group related parameters to the TETRA system and to the subscribers in the system. These definitions are used to enable group call invocations to dynamically defined groups. The SS-DGNA specification defines the creation, modification, deletion and interrogation of group definitions in the Switching and Management Infrastructure (SwMI), in the Mobile Station (MS). The present document does not include the specification for access priority used for random access in uplink and call priority used by SwMI for resource allocation in a group call. Access priority and call priority can be specified and applied for groups using Supplementary Services Access Priority (SS-AP), Priority Call (SS-PC) and Pre-emptive Priority Call (SS-PPC). Thus, the definition procedure of these priorities is outside the scope of the present document. Man Machine Interface (MMI) and charging principles are also outside the scope of the present document. Supplementary service stage 3 specification is preceded by the stage 1 and the stage 2 specifications of the service. Stage 1 describes the functional capabilities from the user's point of view. Stage 2 defines the functional behaviour in terms of functional entities and information flows. Stage 3 gives the precise description of the supplementary service from the implementation point of view. It defines the protocols for the service and the encoding rules for the information flows. It defines the processes for the functional entities and their behaviour. The described protocols and their behaviour apply for the SwMI and for the MS and can be applied over the Inter-System Interface (ISI) between TETRA systems.

Items such as blister packs containing simple instructions are not included in this category). Digestion methods for glass, ceramic and other siliceous materials or fluorinated polymers or fluorinated polymer coatings are not described. These types of materials are outside the scope of this document. Screening determination (without the need for sample preparation and digestion) of the elements mentioned in 1.1 is specified for plastics using energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometry (see Annex B).
