Management of terminology resources — TermBase eXchange (TBX)
This document explains fundamental concepts and describes the metamodel, data categories, and XML styles: DCA (Data Category as Attribute) and DCT (Data Category as Tag). It also specifies the methodology for defining TBX dialects. The audience for this document is anyone wishing to create a new dialect compliant with TBX. This document can also be used to analyze and to understand a terminological data collection or to design a new terminology database that complies with international standards and best practices. Typical users are programmers, software developers, terminologists, analysts, and other language professionals. Intended application areas include translation and authoring. The TBX-Core dialect is described in detail in this document. All other industry-supported dialects are out of the scope of this document. NOTE TBX dialects are defined by industry stakeholders. Any materials needed to implement currently shared dialects are publicly available as self-contained industry specifications (see for instance the TBX Info website[15]).
Gestion des ressources terminologiques — TermBase eXchange (TBX)
Upravljanje terminoloških virov - TermBase eXchange (TBX)
Ta dokument razlaga temeljne koncepte in opisuje metamodel, podatkovne kategorije ter sloge XML: DCA (podatkovna kategorija kot atribut) in DCT (podatkovna kategorija kot oznaka). Prav tako določa metodologijo za opredeljevanje formata TBX.
Dokument je namenjen vsem, ki želijo ustvariti nov format, skladen s TBX. Ta dokument je mogoče uporabiti tudi za analizo in razumevanje zbiranja terminoloških podatkov ali za oblikovanje nove terminološke zbirke podatkov, ki je v skladu z mednarodnimi standardi in dobro prakso. Tipični uporabniki dokumenta so programerji, razvijalci programske opreme, terminologi, analitiki in drugi jezikovni strokovnjaki. Predvidena področja uporabe vključujejo prevajanje in avtorska dela.
V tem dokumentu je podrobno opisan format TBX-Core. Vsi drugi formati, ki jih podpira industrija, ne spadajo na področje uporabe tega dokumenta.
OPOMBA: Format TBX opredeljujejo zainteresirane strani v industriji. Vsa gradiva, potrebna za uvedbo formatov v skupni rabi, so javno dostopna kot samostojne industrijske specifikacije (glej na primer spletno mesto TBX Info[15]).

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 30042:2008), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— industry-defined dialects consisting of data category selections corresponding to the needs of
specific communities have been introduced;
— the XCS formalism has been removed and replaced with the requirement that the dialect be described
and its name be declared on the root element of every TBX document instance;
— the DTD for the core structure has been replaced with a schema language-neutral definition;
— this document, containing the essential core and normative content, has been separated from
ancillary content produced and distributed publicly by stakeholders;
— a simplified DCT (Data Category as Tag) style has been added alongside the traditional TBX style of
DCA (Data Category as Attribute);
— xml namespaces have been introduced as a means for declaring the data categories used in a given
TBX dialect (for DCT style).
