This Technical Specification (TS) series provide a generic framework for the establishment of requirements and their evaluation methodology for biometric products. The requirements depend on the biometric mode considered, and are adapted to each scenario, through the definition of a variety of application profiles (APs). In addition, this TS series provides the definition of the individual tests that can be applied to a biometric product.
This document specifies the context for the evaluation of biometric products within the context of the European Union, as well as the general requirements for such evaluation. This will be defined in a biometric mode-independent point of view, as well as not being biased by the particular application which is the target of the biometric product to be assessed.
This first part defines the following items:
-   biometric evaluation process;
-   biometric evaluation phases;
-   how to define each particular biometric test;
-   how to define the profiling for a particular application.
NOTE 1   Future parts of the CEN/TS series are planned to address the specifics of each biometric mode. For each of these modalities, this document specifies application-independent tests, as well as a set of APs, that detail the applicable tests, the evaluation parameters, and the passing criteria.
NOTE 2   Regarding biometrics for public sector applications, see also BSI TR 03121 [7] which can apply.

This document specifies a reference model and process for Collaborative Modeling and Simulation Environment (CMSE), which establishes a general framework of CMSE to provide guidance for implementation of joint simulation projects. The CMSE which is based on the reference process and the reference model including neutral interfaces and meta-models can enable service-oriented share-use of the infrastructure, integration of the software and collaboration of the business to improve collaboration among all kinds of stakeholders involved in a joint simulation project which needs on-demand simulation at any time and any place upon different manufacturing platforms owned by different enterprises or by different departments within an enterprise. This document can not only be applied to manufacturing enterprises but also be applied to other kinds of enterprises. It is intended for use by stakeholders who are concerned with developing and deploying solutions of the joint simulation project based on information and communication technology. It focuses on simulation activities related cross-platform simulation collaboration capability supporting business planning and logistics, manufacturing operations management and production control within or among enterprises, which can cover the levels from 2 to 4 of the functional hierarchy of manufacturing systems in IEC 62264-3[27]. This document specifies the following: the general framework of CMSE; the methodology of the joint simulation project analysis and realization by CMSE. This document does not relate to the simulation irrelevant collaboration environment, and does not specify the specific approach to implement CMSE in the solution formulation of joint simulation projects.

This document, within the context of methods and tools that support adoption, construction, operation, and management of product line maturity framework, specifies: processes for managing, operationalizing, and supporting product line maturity framework adoption (those processes are described in terms of purpose, inputs, tasks, and outcomes); method capabilities to support the defined tasks of each process; tool capabilities that automate or semi-automate tasks and methods. This document does not concern the processes and capabilities of methods and tools for a single system but rather deals with those for a family of products.

This document describes a standardized methodology and framework for the development and representation of an ontology that supports a global, open-source approach to implementing the ISO standards on the identification of medicinal products (IDMP) (ISO 11615, ISO/TS 20443, ISO/TS 20451, ISO 11238; ISO/TS 19844, ISO 11239, ISO/TS 20440, and ISO 11240). Realization of the full potential of IDMP requires fully self-describing data. For this purpose, this document describes a methodology and framework that complements the existing conceptual and logical models in the ISO documents on IDMP with an IDMP ontology that enables deep, semantic interoperability based on findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR) data principles. This methodology and framework enhance the usage of the IDMP data model as the foundation of medicinal product identification and will ultimately enable collaboration towards drug safety and overall operational efficiency.
This document also describes a methodology for the agile adaptation of the ISO documents on IDMP in connection with cross-jurisdictional IDMP-related legislation and initiatives. This document is intended to be complementary to and independent from formal regulatory guidance. Thus, it enables cross-jurisdictional consistency and supports stakeholders in their regional implementations of IDMP standards. This document does not mandate any specific ontology as an implementation tool, nor is it an instructional guideline on how to build ontologies, which is out of scope of this document.
This document includes key use cases described in the ISO documents on IDMP ISO 11615, ISO 11238 and ISO/TS 19844, as well as further use cases arising from the comprehensive deployment of the ISO documents on IDMP via an ontological framework. Thus, an ontology that represents the IDMP standards aims to cover the complete collection of ISO standards on IDMP regarding key interoperability issues that implementing stakeholders are facing.

This document specifies a micrographic method of determining the non-metallic inclusions in rolled or forged steel products having a reduction ratio of at least 3 using the images of a standard reference chart or direct measurement by image analysis technologies.

IEC 63369-1:2026 addresses general requirements and methodology, whereas intended IEC 63369-2 and intended IEC 63369-3 address applications of the methodology and default values of the CFF parameters by geographic area (see Annex B). This document provides a comprehensive methodology for the calculation of carbon footprint of industrial type Li-ion battery systems from cradle to grave. Second life and/or usage that was not intended when the battery was put on the market is not taken into account in this document. This document, along with the other parts of this series, does not apply to batteries for portable, SLI and electric road vehicle traction applications. The definition of the parameters used for the carbon footprint calculation allows for comparability of results for all rechargeable Li-ion chemistries. Classes of representative products are defined in this document to allow comparison inside each class. This methodology, based on the data provided by the battery manufacturer, is mainly intended to allow a carbon footprint assessment of several battery solutions over the Cumulated Requested Service (CRS). This assessment can be used in the selection process of the battery purchaser. The methodology can also be used for a variety of purposes such as battery system development, eco-design and participation in voluntary or mandatory programs. The methodology in this document is based exclusively on attributional life cycle assessment (LCA). The carbon footprint calculation of charging equipment and power conversion equipment not necessary for battery functions is not covered in this document.

The document specifies testing procedures for determining calibration error for radiosonde humidity sensors sampled from mass production batches based on varying the levels of relative humidity at atmospheric upper-air temperatures using a laboratory setup. This document provides: technical requirements for a laboratory setup to evaluate the calibration errors of radiosonde humidity measurement; a test procedure for evaluating calibration error of radiosonde humidity sensors for a temperature range1) of −90 °C to 35 °C and for a relative humidity of 1 %rh to 100 %rh. Note, this document, is based upon relative humidity calculated by the percentage of water vapour pressure divided by saturation water vapour pressure over liquid water, not over ice, even at temperatures below 0 °C; hence, the maximum relative humidity is less than 100 %rh below 0 °C; a method for evaluating the uncertainty for the measured radiosonde humidity calibration errors. 1) Currently, the lowest possible temperature of commercially-available climate chambers is approximately -75 °C. The temperature range can be adjusted based on the capability of the climate chamber used.
