This document is applicable to non-invasive BCI technologies, such as electroencephalography (EEG), magnetoencephalography (MEG), functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and provides a comprehensive approach to BCI metadata formats in the product development environment. It takes into consideration various applications, ranging from neurological rehabilitation to human–computer interaction.

This document specifies the test method for light stability measurements of prints on transparent or translucent foils, transparent or translucent film, and paper or printed on a textile, which are displayed on backlit units installed in indoor or in shaded outdoor conditions, which are protected against direct precipitation and radiative heating. Installations of backlit display units in outdoor areas without shading, which are exposed to direct weathering and/or radiative heating, are excluded. This document is applicable to the various product classes of “commercial prints” that are suitable for backlit display. These commercial prints often contain combinations of text, pictorial images and/or artwork. This document provides guidelines for colour measurements, data analysis, and also provides guidance for translation of test results into suitable image permanence performance claims considering the variability of backlit designs and environmental conditions. This document is applicable to both analogue and digitally printed matter. Methods and principles apply to both colour and monochrome prints. NOTE The test method in this document does not address the specific requirements for testing museum backlit display, however, some of the elements in this test method (such as exposure in both directions) can also be considered in museum context with details defined by ISO/TS 18950.

This document specifies the structure of ISO/IEC 11179-3:2013 representation in W3C XML Schema suitable for communication of content between compliant registries. The schema described in this document will implement a class and attribute vocabulary that matches the conceptual model presented in ISO/IEC 11179-3:2013 in W3C XML Schema format. The purpose of the schema is for the exchange of compliant metadata, and to support the validation of messages exchanged between registries. It is not intended for the communication of data element metadata alongside the data to which the metadata refers. The document specifes the schema and the principles and conventions that were followed to map classes, attributes, and associations of the conceptual model into an acyclic, directed graph suitable for an unambiguous document-based representation.

This document specifies procedures for detecting the presence of porosity in a protective paint system of any thickness on a steel or other metallic substrate. The procedures given in this document are based on methods using two different types of test equipment, the choice of equipment depending on the dry-film thickness. These procedures are only applicable to the testing of electrically non-conductive parts of a paint system. The test methods specified are mainly intended for use with new coatings, but can also be used for coatings which have been in service for some time. In the latter case, it is important to bear in mind that the coating can have been penetrated by substances in contact with the coating during service.

This document specifies a method of preparing a ground sample of spice or condiment for analysis, from a laboratory sample obtained by the method specified in ISO 948. This document is applicable to the majority of spices and condiments. However, in view of the large number and diversity of spices and condiments, it can be necessary in certain special cases, for example, considerable hardness, or high moisture, volatile oil or fat content, to use a modified procedure or to choose another more suitable method. Any such modified procedure or alternative method will be indicated in the International Standard appropriate to the spice or condiment concerned.

This document describes a test method of exposing specimens to artificial UV radiation in combination with a creep load. This method uses UV radiation source and ISO 899-1 for the tensile creep test. Fluorescent UV lamps specified in ISO 4892-3 or UVC lamp can be used as UV radiation sources. NOTE UVC exposure is described in IEC 60335-1.

This document specifies conformance tests in the form of an abstract test suite (ATS) for a system under test (SUT) that implements an electric-vehicle communication controller (EVCC) or a supply-equipment communication controller (SECC) for all direct current (DC)-specific requirements specified in ISO 15118-20 that are associated to the DC charging type. These conformance tests specify the testing of capabilities and behaviours of an SUT, as well as checking what is observed against the conformance requirements specified in ISO 15118-20 and against what the implementer states the SUT implementation's capabilities are. The capability tests within the ATS check that the observable capabilities of the SUT are in accordance with the static conformance requirements defined in ISO 15118-20. The behaviour tests of the ATS examine an implementation as thoroughly as practical over the full range of dynamic conformance requirements defined in ISO 15118-20 and within the capabilities of the SUT. The test architecture for this document is inherited from the test architecture specified in ISO 15118-21. If further aspects for DC-specific requirements are necessary, they extend this architecture and are specified in this document. The abstract test cases in this document are described leveraging this test architecture and are specified in descriptive tabular format covering the ISO/OSI layer 3 to 7 (network to application layers). In terms of coverage, this document only covers normative sections and requirements in ISO 15118-20. This document can additionally refer to specific tests for requirements on referenced standards (e.g. IETF RFCs, W3C Recommendation, etc.) if they are relevant in terms of conformance for implementations according to ISO 15118-20. However, it is explicitly not intended to widen the scope of this conformance specification to such external standards, if it is not technically necessary for the purpose of conformance testing for ISO 15118-20. Furthermore, the conformance tests specified in this document do not include the assessment of performance nor robustness or reliability of an implementation. They cannot provide judgments on the physical realization of abstract service primitives, how a system is implemented, how it provides any requested service, nor the environment of the protocol implementation. Furthermore, the abstract test cases defined in this document only consider the communication protocol and the system's behaviour defined ISO 15118-20. Power flow between the EVSE and the EV is not a prerequisite for the test cases specified in this document.

This document establishes a vocabulary for mine closure and reclamation management.

This document specifies a method for determining the total content (solvent extractable) of melamine in chemicals for the leather tanning industry. This method requires the use of liquid chromatography (LC) with a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (MS/MS), an ultraviolet (UV) detector, or diode array detector (DAD) to identify and quantify the melamine.

This document specifies allowable limits (AL) for residual ethylene oxide (EO) and ethylene chlorohydrin (ECH) in EO-sterilized medical devices, procedures for the measurement of EO and ECH, and methods for determining conformity so that devices can be released. Additional background, including guidance and a flowchart showing how this document is applied, are also included in Annexes A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J and K. EO-sterilized devices or components that have neither direct nor indirect body or user contact (e.g. in vitro diagnostic devices) are out of scope of this document. This document does not apply to devices that have been demonstrated to not absorb or retain EO or its degradation product ECH, such as medical devices made exclusively of metal alloys and glass, see Clause C.5[228]. NOTE This document does not specify limits for ethylene glycol (EG). No device limits are specified for EG because the risk assessment in Annex F indicates that calculated allowable levels are higher than those likely to occur in a medical device.

This document specifies the dimensions of empty paper sacks and specifies a method of measuring those dimensions.

This document gives guidelines for establishing severity assessment criteria for anomalies identified by airborne (AB) and structure-borne (SB) ultrasound, specifies methods and requirements for carrying out ultrasonic inspection, testing, measurement and monitoring of machines, including safety recommendations and sources of error, and provides information relative to data interpretation, assessment criteria and reporting.

This document defines standardized and repeatable test procedures for the evaluation of blowby oil aerosol separators and filtering devices and specifies laboratory gravimetric separation efficiency and system pressure tests in both open and closed crankcase ventilation systems. This document has a limitation of 0 % to 99 % for aerosol gravimetric efficiency. NOTE Gravimetric efficiencies > 99 % can be difficult to measure due to long test durations and absolute filter weight measurements. Filter life is not evaluated in this document. This test method only applies to devices that have a defined tubular inlet, outlet and drain that can be connected to the test equipment. For devices that lack such connections, for example, one that is built into a valve cover, see Annex A.

This document specifies requirements for implantation test methods for preclinical assessment of the local effects after implantation of medical devices or materials intended for use in medical devices. This document is applicable to the evaluation of local tissue responses from medical devices that are intended to be used where skin or mucosal tissue is breached, when required. This document is applicable to medical device or materials that require implantation evaluation and can be solid or non-solid (such as porous materials, liquids, gels, pastes, powders, and particulates), absorbable, degradable, non- absorbable, or can be tissue-engineered medical products (TEMPs). These implantation tests are not intended to evaluate or determine the performance of the test sample in terms of mechanical loading or functional performance. This document also does not provide guidance on methods and study design to satisfy requirements for systemic toxicity, carcinogenicity, teratogenicity or mutagenicity. However, the study designs can be modified to also assess other biological effects.

This document specifies a practical procedure to create and verify distance-speed diagrams and speed curves using the parameters specified in ISO 24675-1, from which the shortest running time for railway timetabling is obtained by numerically integrating the speed curves.

This document is applicable to HVAC units for the passenger area and driver’s cabs in urban (metro, tramway), suburban, regional and main line vehicles.

This document specifies the requirements for an environmental management system that an organization can use to enhance its environmental performance. It is intended for use by an organization seeking to manage its environmental responsibilities in a systematic manner that contributes to the environmental pillar of sustainability. This document helps an organization to achieve the intended outcomes of its environmental management system, which provide value for the environment, the organization itself and interested parties. The intended outcomes of an environmental management system include: enhancing environmental performance; meeting compliance obligations; achieving environmental objectives. This document is applicable to any organization, regardless of size, type or nature, and applies to the environmental aspects of its activities, products and services that the organization determines it can either control or influence considering a life cycle perspective. This document does not state specific environmental performance criteria. This document can be used in whole or in part to systematically improve environmental management. Claims of conformity to this document, however, are not acceptable unless all its requirements are incorporated into an organization’s environmental management system and fulfilled without exclusion.

This document defines a scalable, methodical process to ensure business concept model interoperability and logical model alignment and reverse engineering. This document provides guidance on conceptual interoperability and reverse engineering to explain how to extract relevant information from existing IndustryMessageSet, proprietary MessageSet or business model in order to prepare the submission to the ISO 20022 Registration Authority of equivalent, ISO 20022 conformant BusinessTransactions, BusinessComponents (including BusinessElements and Constraints) and MessageSets. This document describes the activities of ISO 20022 conceptual interoperability and reverse engineering from the point of view of the user who wants to verify that the business functionality, covered by their own IndustryMessageSet, proprietary MessageSets or business model, is covered by ISO 20022 conformant BusinessTransactions, BusinessComponents (including BusinessElements and Constraints) and MessageSets.

This document specifies the responsibilities of the Registration Authority (RA) and the Submitting Organizations. NOTE Details concerning the involvement of Technical Committee ISO/TC 68, Financial services, Subcommittee SC 9, Information exchange for financial services, in the registration request process can be found on the ISO 20022 website (see www.iso20022.org).

There are numerous pathways to produce hydrogen. This document specifies a methodology for different hydrogen production pathways for determining the greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions associated with the hydrogen supply chain from the raw material extraction up to the production gate. This document considers the GHG emissions associated with hydrogen production up to the production gate. This document applies to and includes every step within the production process up to the production gate (see Figure 2 in the Introduction). NOTE Complementary documents in the ISO 19870 series will consider hydrogen conditioning, conversion and transport methods. ISO 14044 requires the goal and scope of a life cycle assessment (LCA) be clearly defined and be consistent with the intended application. Due to the iterative nature of LCAs, it is possible that the LCA scope needs to be refined during the study. According to ISO 14040:2006, A.2, the goals and scope of LCAs correspond to one of the following two approaches: an approach that assigns elementary flows and potential environmental impacts to a specific product system, typically as an account of the history of the product (see 4.1.2); an approach that studies the environmental consequences of possible (future) changes between alternative product systems (see 4.1.3). In this document, approach a) is referred to as an attributional approach, while approach b) is referred to as a consequential approach. Complementary information is accessible in the ILCD handbook[4]. A carbon footprint of a product (CFP) (3.1.2) or partial CFP (3.1.3) as defined by ISO 14067 can be estimated using either the attributional or the consequential approach, the latter corresponding to the use of “system expansion via substitution” to avoid allocation when a unit process yields multiple co-products. This document applies to the CFP for hydrogen production.

This document describes the modelling workflow, complementing ISO 20022-1 and ISO 20022-2. The modelling workflow describes the required steps a modeller follows in order to develop and maintain standardized BusinessTransactions and InterfaceDefinitions/MessageSets. This document does not describe the permissible artefacts and/or documents to be submitted to the Registration Authority (this information is contained in ISO 20022-7). Examples are provided only to illustrate the modelling methodology and are not normative.

This document specifies the performance test procedures for acidizing fluids used as completion fluids and materials in oil and gas well operations. NOTE The acidizing fluids mentioned in this document refer to hydrochloric acid, mud acid, polymer-based acid acidizing fluids, emulsified acid acidizing fluids, etc., used in acidizing operations of oil and gas wells, including fundamental acid solution and acidizing fluid system with additives, such as corrosion inhibitor and ferric ion (Fe3+) stabling agent.

This document specifies requirements and provides guidance for the construction of monitoring stations of karst critical zones, the monitoring of processes (specific processes), the monitoring data collection and processing, and sharing and service of monitoring information.

This document specifies a method for the determination of the ash content in milk, milk powder, whey powder, whey protein concentrate, infant formula, milk permeate powder and milk protein concentrate. NOTE For the determination of ash (“fixed ash”) of caseins and caseinates, see ISO 5544 | IDF 89.

This document specifies a framework introducing the approaches that can be applied to assess the risks linked to dermal exposure to chemical substances in the workplace. This document provides guidance on the different steps to be taken when performing qualitative and quantitative dermal exposure assessments. This document is not applicable to inhalation, oral, ocular and mucous membranes exposure, biological agents, wet work and mechanical stressors.

This document complements the ISO 20022 Metamodel, as specified in ISO 20022-1, with generic requirements and guidelines to define specific syntax generation rules for other encodings in order to produce schemas based on each specific syntax generation rules in compliance with this document. Such specific syntaxes include XML, ASN.1 and JSON. (XML and ASN.1 do not imply ISO 20022-4 XML schema generation and ISO 20022-8 ASN.1 generation only. W3C XML Schema, ASN.1 and JSON can be used to express or define a variety of schema types.) Under this metamodel-driven and syntax-agnostic approach of ISO 20022 series, interoperability is ensured at the conceptual level of the metamodel specified in ISO 20022-1, rather than at the physical level of syntaxes specified in ISO 20022-4 and ISO 20022-8. In this document, "schema" refers to the "SyntaxMessageScheme" defined in ISO 20022-1. However, for ease of reading, this document will hereafter refer to it as "schema" which is a general term for design documents that define data structures. The metaclass “MessageDefinition” that is described in ISO 20022-1:2026, Figure 13 is the target of the transformation specified in this document, but the metaclass “MessageChoreography” is not. In other words, this document is only the rules for the syntax of the data representation language. For example, Application Programming Interface (API) specific aspects are outside the scope of this document. Regarding the concept of conformance to this document, see Annex B.

This document describes the transformation rules to generate ASN.1 abstract syntax from an ISO 20022 compliant MessageDefinition. The generated abstract syntax is for the description and validation of Messages. The transformation rules are a transformation from Level 3 to Level 4. It is a deterministic transformation, meaning that the resulting ASN.1 is completely predictable for a given MessageDefinition. There is neither manual input to the transformation itself nor manual adjustment to the result of the transformation. This document is the ASN.1 equivalent of ISO 20022-4. In ISO 20022-4 the abstract syntax generated is XML Schema; in this document it is ASN.1. In ISO 20022-4 the only encoding supported is UTF-8 XML; in this document there are multiple encodings supported for ASN.1. These include all the standard encodings, but in addition the ability to register custom encodings in Encoding Control Notation (ECN).

The document gives guidance to organizations on the incorporation of sustainability aspects for IT asset management (ITAM). This document is applicable to any organization, regardless of size, type and nature, and applies to the sustainability aspects that an organization has implemented or will implement in its IT asset management system (ITAMS) in accordance with the scope definition of ISO/IEC 19770-1. This document also addresses what is material from the perspective of the organization and of its stakeholders.

This document specifies: the overall description of the modelling approach; the overall description of the ISO 20022 Repository (hereby referred to as Repository) contents; a high-level description of the input to be accepted by the Registration Authority to feed/modify the Repository’s DataDictionary and BusinessProcessCatalogue; a high-level description of the Repository output to be made publicly available by the Registration Authority. BusinessTransactions and MessageSets Conforming with ISO 20022 series can be used for electronic data interchange amongst any industry participants (financial and others), independently of any specific communication network. Network-dependent rules, such as message acknowledgement and message protection, are beyond the scope of the ISO 20022 series.

This document complements the ISO 20022 Metamodel, as specified in ISO 20022-1, with the XML syntax transformation rules to be applied by the ISO 20022 Registration Authority in order to translate an ISO 20022 compliant MessageDefinition into an XML Schema for the description and validation of XML Messages. It specifies the transformation rules from the Logical to the Physical level. It is a deterministic transformation, meaning that the resulting XML Schema is completely predictable for a given MessageDefinition. There is neither manual input to the transformation itself nor manual adjustment to the result of the transformation.

This document gives an overview and provides guidance on the main methods available to quantify the exchanges of greenhouse gases (CO2, N2O, CH4) and ammonia (NH3) between soils and the atmosphere. It is intended to help users to select the measurement method or methods most suited to their purposes by setting out information on the application domain and the main advantages and limitations of each methods.
