Document management -- Part 2: Metadata elements and information reference model

This part of IEC 82045 provides a comprehensive set of standardized metadata elements for document management in accordance with IEC 82045-1. To enable this, a standardized EXPRESS-based information reference model [30] is provided in Annex A. The information reference model is the basis from which the metadata elements are derived.
The information reference model also provides a standardized framework for data exchange and a basis for the implementation of a document management system. This document also provides a standardized DTD (Document Type Definition) based on the XML (eXtensible Markup Language) language for the purpose of document exchange, see Annex B. It is directed towards end users of document management systems. The Annexes are in addition directed primarily to developers of software for such systems. The document is intended as a general basic resource for document management. This part of IEC 82045 does not specify physical locations nor arrangements of labels on documents, nor layouts of drawings, documents etc. Physical implementation of the information reference model or exchange formats are not part of this standard.
NOTE Although sometimes closely related to the document management, the following items are outside of scope of this standard: planning, product data management, workflow management, configuration change management, and electronic file management. These items may, however, be referred to as external objects.

DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT –

Part 2: Metadata elements and information reference model


FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 82045-2 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 3:
Information structures, documentation and graphical symbols, in co-operation with
ISO subcommittees SC 1: Basic conventions and SC 8: Construction documentation of
ISO technical committee 10: Technical product documentation.

INTRODUCTION
This part of IEC 82045 presents information for the management of documents throughout
their life cycle. It is based on the document concepts and the overall framework established in
IEC 82045-1. It is composed of the following items:
a) A table collecting metadata element identifiers and their language-dependent labels
including their definitions etc., shown in Clause 8.
b) Annex A: an EXPRESS based language-independent information model serving as an
implementation-independent information reference model used in data exchange and for
ease of implementation of document management systems. It provides the context of
metadata elements associated with document management systems.
c) Annex B: an XML (eXtensible Markup Language) DTD (Document Type Definition) based
on the information reference model and the metadata collection.
These parts use different modelling methods, with different limitations:
– The EXPRESS modelling method, using entities, relations and attributes and by which a
complex network of entities and relations can be modelled;
– The XML DTD modelling method, using elements and (XML) attributes, but with the
limitation that it has to be hierarchical;
– The table of document attributes (metadata elements) with an entirely flat structure,
incapable of expressing even hierarchical relations, but simple and sufficient for many
purposes.
In order to make the resulting descriptions equivalent, starting from the EXPRESS model:
– to make the document attributes fit into the hierarchical DTD model some entities and
relations must be specialised and also renamed to take account of their original relations.
– to make the attributes fit into the table structure, they need to be even further specialised
and the complete structure hidden in the names (identifiers) of the attributes, to the extent
necessary to make them unambiguous in the actual context.
Therefore the names (identifiers) used in the table are often slightly different, but related, to
those used to identify corresponding attributes in the EXPRESS model or in the XML DTD.
Relation to ISO 10303
1
Within the ISO 10303 series, parts 212 [17] and 214 [18] have been developed using a
common information model core. Both parts have been designed for the purpose of product
data management in their respective application fields. Although the actual parts of
ISO 10303 series contain some document related concepts they have not been developed
focusing on document management requirements.

82045-2  IEC:2004 – 13 –
It was originally envisaged to extend the above model subset with respect to document
management requirements whilst keeping the technology used within the ISO 10303 series.
During the development of this part of IEC 82045 however, it was found that doing so would
limit the application possibilities of this standard and would force system developers to
implement implicitly also the technologies used within the ISO 10303 series.
Therefore, the EXPRESS reference model in this standard is independent of any part of
ISO 10303, although relevant concepts have been reused where possible.
This standard provides a concept that allows establishing relations from the information model
of this standard to any other object of interest available within an information model external
to this standard. The approach chosen in this part of IEC 82045 allows establishing in a
flexible way relationships to items of interest for a document management system, available in
an external information system, for example a PDM (Product Data Management) system.

DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT –
Part 2: Metadata elements and information reference model


1 Scope
This part of IEC 82045 provides a comprehensive set of standardized metadata elements for
document management in accordance with IEC 82045-1.
To enable this, a standardized EXPRESS-based information reference model [30] is provided
in Annex A. The information reference model is the basis from which the metadata elements
are derived.
The information reference model also provides a standardized framework for data exchange
and a basis for the implementation of a document management system.
This document also provides a standardized DTD (Document Type Definition) based on the
XML (eXtensible Markup Language) language for the purpose of document exchange, see
A n nex B.
It is directed towards end users of document management systems. The Annexes are in
addition directed primarily to developers of software for such systems.
The document is intended as a general basic resource for document management.
This part of IEC 82045 does not specify physical locations nor arrangements of labels on
documents, nor layouts of drawings, documents etc.
Physical implementation of the information reference model or exchange formats are not part
of this standard.
NOTE Although sometimes closely related to the document management, the following items are outside of scope
of this standard: planning, product data management, workflow management, configuration change management,
and electronic file management. These items may, however, be referred to as external objects.

4 Structure of the Metadata collection table
4.1 General
Table 4 (in Clause 8) serves as an information resource for document management. It is
roughly structured following the lifecycle (see the number of DMA in 4.2) of a document from
its initiation until deletion of a document in accordance with the phases defined in IEC 82045-1.
The table gathers the following information:
– No. (sequential number for reference purposes);
– DMA (Document Management Activity, see 4.2);
– Obl. (Obligation, see 4.3);
– the metadata element identifier (based on the English language but considered to be
language-independent in order to be usable as identifier and therefore not to be
translated), see 4.4;

---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------

82045-2  IEC:2004 – 21 –
– the label which is language-dependent; synonyms are separated by the character
semicolon (;), see 4.5;
– definition of the metadata element, see 4.6;
– assigned predefined data values, if available; predefined values are identical to those
occuring within the information reference model of Annex A, see 4.7;
– reference to the EXPRESS information reference model in Annex A, see 4.8;
– reference to the XML-based implementation in Annex B, see 4.9;
– references to other standards (if any); see 4.10.
The metadata element identifiers are language-independent and intended to be used as field
identifiers in the communication of metadata and as identifiers for fields used for the entry of
data. The concept structure behind each metadata element reflects the semantically correct
mapping to the information reference model in Annex A.
The associated labels are language-dependent and normally used for the human readable,
visual presentation of document management concepts, mostly occurring on documents and
on the user interface of systems. They can be adapted to different language requirements, but
need to be strictly adhered to each concept shown in the table, as otherwise the underlaying
common semantic is lost.
A wide variety of data element concepts, consequently also labels, shown in this table may
occur repetitively.
As the information reference model describes the generic overall context of a document
management system, it allows for a variety of possible combinations. Therefore neither the
collection of data element identifiers nor the associated labels are considered to be complete
with respect to the possibilities offered by the information reference model. However, the
table gathers the most applied concepts.
4.2 No. and DMA (Document Management Activity)
These numbers are used for ordering of Table 4. The DMA numbers are defined in
accordance with the following li
