Geometrical product specifications (GPS) — Decomposition of geometrical characteristics for manufacturing control

Spécification géométrique des produits (GPS) — Décomposition des caractéristiques géométriques pour la maîtrise de la fabrication

This document describes principles and tools to control a manufacturing process in accordance with a GPS specification. For this purpose a set of one or more complementary, independent characteristics (size, form, orientation, and location characteristics independent to each other) that correlate to the manufacturing process parameters and to the manufacturing process coordinate system established from the manufacturing datum system are used.

This document describes the concept of decomposition of the macro-geometrical part of the GPS specification. It does not cover the micro-geometry, i.e. surface texture.

The objective of the decomposition presented in this document is to define correction values for manufacturing control or to perform a statistical analysis of the process.

Vacuum technology — Vacuum gauges — Characterization of quadrupole mass spectrometers for partial pressure measurement

Technique du vide — Manomètres à vide — Description des spectromètres de masse quadripolaires pour mesurage de la pression partielle

This document describes procedures to characterize quadrupole mass spectrometers (QMSs) with an ion source of electron impact ionization and which are designed for the measurement of atomic mass-to-charge ratios m/z < 300.

This document is not applicable to QMSs with other ion sources, such as chemical ionization, photo-ionization or field ionization sources and for the measurements of higher m/z, which are mainly used to specify organic materials.

It is well known from published investigations on the metrological characteristics of quadrupole mass spectrometers that their indications of partial pressures depend significantly on the settings of the instrument, the total pressure, and the composition of the gas mixture. For this reason, it is not possible to calibrate a quadrupole mass spectrometer for all possible kinds of use. The characterization procedures described in this document cover the applications of continuous leak monitoring of a vacuum system, leak rate measurement with tracer gas, residual gas analysis and outgassing rate measurements. The user can select that characterization procedure that best suits his or her needs. These characterization procedures can also be useful for other applications.

It is also well known that the stability of several parameters of quadrupole mass spectrometers, in particular sensitivity, are rather poor. Therefore, when a parameter has been calibrated, it needs frequent recalibration when accuracy is required. For practical reasons this can only be accomplished by in situ calibrations. To this end, this document not only describes how a quadrupole mass spectrometer can be calibrated by a calibration laboratory or a National Metrological Institute with direct traceability to the System International (SI), but also how calibrated parameters can be frequently checked and maintained in situ.

By their physical principle, quadrupole mass spectrometers need high vacuum within the instrument. By reducing dimensions or by special ion sources combined with differential pumping the operational range can be extended to higher pressures, up to atmospheric pressure. This document, however, does not include quadrupole mass spectrometers with differential pumping technology. Therefore, it does not cover pressures exceeding 1 Pa on the inlet flange of the quadrupole mass spectrometer.

This document does not describe how the initial adjustment of a quadrupole mass spectrometer by the manufacturer or by a service given order by the manufacturer should be made. The purpose of such an initial adjustment is mainly to provide a correct m/z scale, constant mass resolution or constant transmission, and is very specific to the instrument. Instead, it is assumed for this document that a manufacturer's readjustment procedure exists which can be carried on-site by a user. This procedure is intended to ensure that the quadrupole mass spectrometer is in a well-defined condition for the characterization.

It is the intention of this document that the user gets the best possible metrological quality from his quadrupole mass spectrometer. From investigations it is known that in most cases this can be achieved in the so called "scan mode". The bar graph may also be of an adequate quality depending on the software used for evaluation of the data taken by the quadrupole mass spectrometer. The trend mode, however, often involves the additional uncertainty that a shift of the peak value position on the mass scale causes a shift in ion current. For this reason, the scan mode is preferable for most of the measurement procedures of this document.

It is not the intent of this document that all the parameters described be determined for each quadrupole mass spectrometer. However, it is intended that the value of a parameter addressed in this document be determined according to the procedure described in this document if it is given or measured (e.g. for an inspection test).

It is assumed for this document that the applicant is familiar with both the operation of quadrupole mass spectrometers and high and ultra-high vacuum technology.


Vacuum technology — Vacuum gauges — Procedures to measure and report outgassing rates

Technique du vide — Manomètres à vide — Méthodes de mesurage et de  rapport du taux de dégagement de gaz

This document describes procedures to measure outgassing rates from components designed for vacuum chambers and of vacuum chambers as a whole. The outgassing rates are expected to be lower than 10−5 Pa m3 s−1 (10−2 Pa L s−1) at 23 °C and to emerge from devices that are suitable for high or ultra-high vacuum applications. The molecular mass of the outgassing species or vapour is below 300 u.

The upper limit 10−5 Pa m3 s−1 of total outgassing rate is specified independent of the size, the total surface area and texture or state of the outgassing material. If a specific outgassing rate (outgassing rate per area) is determined, the area is not a specific surface area including the surface roughness, but the nominal geometrical one. When it is difficult to determine the nominal geometrical surface area of the sample, such as powders, porous materials, very rough surfaces, or complex devices, mass specific outgassing rate (e.g. outgassing rate per gram) is used.

For many practical applications, it is sufficient to determine the total outgassing rate. If a measuring instrument, which sensitivity is gas species dependent, is used, the total outgassing rate are given in nitrogen equivalent. In cases, however, where the total outgassing rate is too high, the disturbing gas species is identified, and its outgassing rate is measured in order to improve the sample material. This document covers both cases.

Some outgassing molecules can adsorb on a surface with a residence time that is much longer than the total time of measurement. Such molecules cannot be detected by a detecting instrument when there is no direct line of sight. This is considered as a surface effect and surface analytical investigations are more useful than general outgassing rate measurements considered here. Also, molecules that are released from the surface by irradiation of UV light or X-rays, are out of the scope of this document.

This document is written to standardize the measurement of outgassing rates in such a way that values obtained at different laboratories and by different methods are comparable. To this end, for any of the described methods, traceability is provided to the System International (SI) for the most important parameters of each method and according to the metrological level.

Outgassing rate measurements by mass loss, which were mainly developed for testing of spacecraft and satellite materials, are not gas specific. For acceptable measurement times, mass loss measurements require significantly higher outgassing rates (>10−5 Pa m3 s−1) than typical for high and ultrahigh vacuum components. Also, it is not possible to measure the sample in situ due to the weight of the vacuum chamber, since the balances are not vacuum compatible. For these reasons, mass loss measurements are not considered in this document.

It is assumed that the user of this document is familiar with high and ultra-high vacuum technology and the corresponding measuring instrumentation such as ionization gauges and quadrupole mass spectrometers.

Acoustics — Laboratory and field measurement of flanking transmission for airborne, impact and building service equipment sound between adjoining rooms — Part 1: Frame document

Acoustique — Mesurage en laboratoire et sur site des transmissions latérales du bruit aérien, des bruits de choc et du bruit d'équipement technique de bâtiment entre des pièces adjacentes — Partie 1: Document cadre

ISO 10848 (all parts) specifies measurement methods to characterize the flanking transmission of one or several building components. These measurements are performed in a laboratory test facility or in the field.

The performance of the building components is expressed either as an overall quantity for the combination of elements and junction (such as the normalized flanking level difference and/or normalized flanking impact sound pressure level) or as the vibration reduction index of a junction or the normalized direction-average vibration level difference of a junction.

Two approaches are used for structure-borne sound sources in buildings, a normalized flanking equipment sound pressure level and a transmission function that can be used to estimate sound pressure levels in a receiving room due to structure-borne excitation by service equipment in a source room. The former approach assumes that flanking transmission is limited to one junction (or no junction if the element supporting the equipment is the separating element), and the latter considers the combination of direct (if any) and all flanking transmission paths.

ISO 10848-1:2017 contains definitions, general requirements for test elements and test rooms, and measurement methods. Guidelines are given for the selection of the quantity to be measured, depending on the junction and the types of building elements involved. Other parts of ISO 10848 specify the application for different types of junction and building elements.

The quantities characterizing the flanking transmission can be used to compare different products, or to express a requirement, or as input data for prediction methods, such as ISO 12354‑1 and ISO 12354‑2.

Acoustique — Mesurage en laboratoire et sur site des transmissions latérales du bruit aérien, des bruits de choc et du bruit d'équipement technique de bâtiment entre des pièces adjacentes — Partie 2: Application aux éléments de Type B lorsque la jonction a une faible influence

ISO 10848 (all parts) specifies measurement methods to characterize the flanking transmission of one or several building components. This document considers only laboratory measurements.

The measured quantities can be used to compare different products, or to express a requirement, or as input data for prediction methods, such as ISO 12354‑1 and ISO 12354‑2. However, the measured quantities Dn,f, Ln,f and Lne0,f only represent the performance with the dimensions for the test specimens described in this document.

ISO 10848-2:2017 is referred to in ISO 10848‑1:2017, 4.5 as being a supporting part of the frame document. It applies to Type B elements as defined in ISO 10848‑1, such as suspended ceilings, access floors, light uninterrupted façades or floating floors. The transmission from one room to another can occur simultaneously through the test element and via the plenum (if any). For measurements made according to this document, the total sound transmission is determined and it is not possible to separate the two kinds of transmission.


Acoustics — Laboratory and field measurement of flanking transmission for airborne, impact and building service equipment sound between adjoining rooms — Part 3: Application to Type B elements when the junction has a substantial influence

Acoustique — Mesurage en laboratoire et sur site des transmissions latérales du bruit aérien, des bruits de choc et du bruit d'équipement technique de bâtiment entre des pièces adjacentes — Partie 3: Application aux éléments de Type B lorsque la jonction a une influence importante

ISO 10848 (all parts) specifies measurement methods to characterize the flanking transmission of one or several building components.

ISO 10848-3:2017 specifies laboratory and field measurements of buildings for Type B elements (defined in ISO 10848‑1) when the junction has a substantial influence.

Laboratory measurements are used to quantify the performance of the junction with suppressed flanking transmission from the laboratory structure. Field measurements are used to characterize the in situ performance and it is not usually possible to suppress unwanted flanking transmission sufficiently; hence, the results can only be considered representative of the performance of that junction when installed in that particular building structure.

ISO 10848-3:2017 is referred to in ISO 10848‑1:2017, 4.5 as being a supporting part to the frame document and applies to Type B elements that are structurally connected as defined in ISO 10848‑1.

The measured quantities can be used to compare different products, or to express a requirement, or as input data for prediction methods, such as ISO 12354‑1 and ISO 12354‑2.

The relevant quantity to be measured is selected according to ISO 10848‑1:2017, 4.5. The performance of the building components is expressed either as an overall quantity for the combination of elements and junction (such as Dn,f,ij and/or Ln,f,ij and/or Lne0,f,ij) or as the normalized direction-average velocity level difference  of a junction. Dn,f,ij, Ln,f,ij, Lne0,f,ij and  depend on the actual dimensions of the elements.

Acoustique — Mesurage en laboratoire et sur site des transmissions latérales du bruit aérien, des bruits de choc et du bruit d'équipement technique de bâtiment entre des pièces adjacentes — Partie 4: Application aux jonctions ayant au moins un élément de Type A

ISO 10848 (all parts) specifies measurement methods to characterize the flanking transmission of one or several building components.

ISO 10848-4:2017 specifies laboratory and field measurements of buildings where at least one of the elements that form the construction under test is a Type A element (defined in ISO 10848‑1).

Laboratory measurements are used to quantify the performance of the junction with suppressed flanking transmission from the laboratory structure. Field measurements are used to characterize the in situ performance and it is not usually possible to suppress unwanted flanking transmission sufficiently; hence, the results are primarily representative of the performance of that junction when installed in that particular building structure.

The measured quantities can be used to compare different products, or to express a requirement, or as input data for prediction methods, such as ISO 12354‑1 and ISO 12354‑2.

Carbon dioxide capture — Part 1: Performance evaluation methods for post-combustion CO2 capture integrated with a power plant

Captage du dioxyde de carbone — Partie 1: Méthodes d’évaluation des performances pour le captage du CO2 post-combustion intégré à une centrale thermique

This document specifies methods for measuring, evaluating and reporting the performance of post-combustion CO2 capture (PCC) integrated with a power plant, and which separates CO2 from the power plant flue gas in preparation for subsequent transportation and geological storage. In particular, it provides a common methodology to calculate specific key performance indicators for the PCC plant, requiring the definition of the boundaries of a typical system and the measurements needed to determine the KPIs.

This document covers thermal power plants burning carbonaceous fuels, such as coal, oil, natural gas and biomass-derived fuels, which are producing CO2 from boilers or gas turbines, and are integrated with CO2 capture.

The PCC technologies covered by this document are those based on chemical absorption using reactive liquids, such as aqueous amine solutions, potassium carbonate solutions, and aqueous ammonia. Other PCC concepts based on different principles (e.g. adsorption, membranes, cryogenic) are not covered. The PCC plant can be installed for treatment of the full volume of flue gas from the power plant or a fraction of the total (i.e. a slip stream). Captured CO2 is processed in a compression or liquefaction step as determined by the conditions for transportation and storage.

The KPIs considered in this document are the following:

a)    Specific thermal energy consumption (STEC);

b)    Specific electrical energy consumption (SEC);

c)    Specific equivalent electrical energy consumption (SEEC);

d)    Specific reduction in CO2 emissions (SRCE);

e)    Specific absorbent consumption (SAC) and specific chemical consumption (SCC).

The calculations are based on measurements at the boundaries of the considered system, particularly of energy and utilities consumption. The integrated system includes the definition of interfaces between the PCC plant and the power plant.

This document includes the following items:

—          The system boundary which defines the boundaries of the PCC plant and identifies which streams of energy and mass are crossing these boundaries to help power plant operators identify the key streams that are applicable for their particular case.

—          Basic PCC plant performance which defines the parameters that describe the basic performance of the PCC plant.

—          Definition of utilities and consumption calculation which lists the utility measurements required and provides guidance on how to convert utility measurements into the values required for the KPIs.

—          Guiding principles - Basis for PCC plant performance assessment which describes all guidelines to prepare, set-up and conduct the tests.

—          Instruments and measurement methods which lists the standards available for the relevant measurements and considerations to take into account when applying measurement methods to PCC plants.

—          Evaluation of key performance indicators which specifies the set of KPIs to be determined and their calculation methods to provide a common way of reporting them.

This document does not provide guidelines for benchmarking, comparing or assessing KPIs of different technologies or different PCC projects.

NOTE       For the purposes of this document, thermal energy and electric energy are expressed by the unit of "J" (Joule) and "Wh" (Watt hour) respectively unless otherwise noted, with a prefix of International System of Units (SI) if necessary. (1 J = 1 W·s, 1 Wh = 1 W·h = 3 600 J).


Carbon dioxide capture, transportation, and geological storage — Cross Cutting Issues — CO2 stream composition

Captage, transport et stockage géologique du dioxyde de carbone — Questions transversales— Composition du flux de CO2

The primary aim of this document is to describe the main compositional characteristics of the CO2 stream downstream of the capture unit, taking into account common purification options. Accordingly, this document will characterize the different types of impurities and present examples of concentrations determined in recent capture pilot projects as well as through literature review. It identifies ranges of concentrations, giving priority to in situ measurements when available.

The second aim of this document is to identify potential impacts of impurities on all components of the CCS chain, from surface installations (including transport) to the storage complex. For example, impurities can have a significant effect on the phase behaviour of CO2 streams in relation to their concentration. Chemical effects also include the corrosion of metals. The composition of the CO2 stream can also influence the injectivity and the storage capacity, due to physical effects (such as density or viscosity changes) and geochemical reactions in the reservoir. In case of a leakage, toxic and ecotoxic effects of impurities contained in the leaking CO2 stream could also impact the environment surrounding the storage complex.

In order to ensure energy efficiency, proper operation of the whole CCS chain and not to affect its surrounding environment, operators usually limit the concentrations of some impurities, which can, in-turn, influence the design of the capture equipment and purification steps. Such limits are case specific and cannot be described in this report; however, some examples of CO2 stream specifications discussed in the literature are presented in Annex A.

The required purity of the CO2 stream delivered from the capture plant will to a large degree depend on the impurity levels that can be accepted and managed by the transport, injection and storage operations. The capture plant operators will therefore most probably need to purify the CO2 stream to comply with the required transport, injection, storage specifications or with legal requirements.

Monitoring of the CO2 stream composition plays an important role in the management of the entire CCS process. Methods of measuring the composition of the CO2 stream and in particular the concentrations of impurities are described and other parameters relevant for monitoring at the various steps of the CCS chain are described.

The interplay between the set CO2 stream specifications and the efficiency of the entire CCS process is also explained. Finally, the mixing of CO2 streams coming from different sources before transport or storage is addressed, and the main benefits, risks and operational constraints are presented.

Risk management for integrated CCS projects


Carbon dioxide capture, transportation and geological storage — Cross cutting issues — Flow assurance

Captage, transport et stockage géologique du dioxyde de carbone — Questions transversales — Maintien de l'écoulement

This document describes and explains the physical and chemical phenomena, and the technical issues associated with flow assurance in the various components of a carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) system and provides information on how to achieve and manage flow assurance. The gaps in technical knowledge, limitations of the tools available and preventative and corrective measures that can be taken are also described.

This document addresses flow assurance of CO2 streams in a CCS project, from CO2 capture via transport by pipeline and injection well through to geological storage. It does not specifically address upstream issues associated with CO2 sources and capture, although flow assurance will inform CO2 capture design and operation, for example, on constraints on the presence of impurities in CO2 streams, as there are too many different capture technologies to be treated in detail in this document.

Vessel transport and buffer storage that are considered in integrated CCS projects under development, are not covered in this document. Flow of material in the supply chain of a CO2 source, even if delivered by a pipeline (e.g. blue hydrogen generation), and flow of gas streams within facilities generating and feeding these into a capture facility can impact flow assurance in CCS projects and networks. These are out of the scope of this document as well.

This document also examines the impact of impurities on the phase behaviour and physical properties of the CO2 stream which in turn can ultimately affect the continuous supply of the CO2 stream from the capture plant, through the transportation system and into the geological reservoir via injection wells.

Flow of fluids in oil reservoirs for the purpose of enhanced oil recovery is not within the scope of this document.

Carbon dioxide capture, transportation and geological storage — Carbon dioxide capture — Performance evaluation methods for CO2 capture connected to a CO2 intensive plant

1. Scope:
This document is a part of a series of standards for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture. It specifies methods for measuring, evaluating and reporting the performance of CO2 capture plant connected to a CO2 intensive plant, and which separate CO2 from the CO2 intensive plant exhaust gas in preparation for subsequent transportation and geological storage. In particular, it provides a common methodology to calculate specific key performance indicators for the CO2 capture plant, requiring the definition of the boundaries of a typical system and the measurements needed to determine the KPIs.

2. Policy of work:
The series of standards for carbon dioxide capture will be done based on the following fundamental policies:
(1) The standards and requirements being developed in the series will depend on the maturity of the content and its practical use to stakeholders.
(2) Standards in the series will build on the previous standards.
(3) Standards for CO2 capture lend themselves better to a series of individual standards rather than a single comprehensive standard because of the maturity of the technologies and the process differences in power and different Energy Intensive Industries (EII).


This document provides insights into the essential aspects of CO2 shipping and provides basic descriptions of how the CO2 carrier and technology therein is technically integrated with the CCS value chain. It also includes a description of specific challenges of transporting CO2 as cargo, how this differs from other gases transported by ships today, and how this influences the ship design and operation. Finally, this document introduces how CO2 ships are regulated within the existing international maritime regulatory framework. This document's main focus is on the technical aspects of CO2 shipping. Commercial, liability and financial aspects are intentionally kept out of this document. However, general reference to commercial impact is made where relevant.

This document focuses on the ship transportation of CO2 between loading and offloading facilities where the system boundaries are at the ship manifold equipment that connects the ship to the other components in the value chain. In the document, the basis for the description of ship operation is transportation between two shore-based terminals. A high-level description of other relevant interfaces is given on a conceptual level as this has impact on the ship design. However, any further description of potential solutions upstream and downstream from the CO2 carrier is outside the scope. This document also gives a high-level description of the physical properties of CO2 streams at the conditions relevant for shipping and how relevant impurities can impact the ship and ship operation.

Space data and information transfer systems — IP over CCSDS space links

Systèmes de transfert des informations et données spatiales — Protocole Internet utilisant les liaisons spatiales CCSDS

ISO 20206:2015 addresses the recommended method for transferring IP Protocol Data Units (PDUs) over CCSDS space links.


Space data and information transfer systems — CCSDS Space Link Protocols over ETSI DVB-S2 Standard

Systèmes de transfert des informations et données spatiales — Protocole pour liaisons spatiales CCSDS utilisant la Norme ETSI DVB-S2

The DVB-S2 standard (reference [1]) proposes advanced modulation techniques (QPSK, 8PSK, 16APSK, and 32APSK) and a wide range of coding rates (from 1/4 to 9/10) with near-Shannon coding schemes (LDPC codes). This high number of modulation and coding schemes allows a wide range of possibilities to satisfy specific mission constraints.

Moreover, to maximize the telemetry system throughput, it appears possible to adapt the transmitted waveform (and the useful data rate) to the variable conditions of the link. The DVB-S2 standard can actually implement Variable Coding and Modulation (VCM) mode, which adapts the transmission scheme to the channel conditions following a predetermined schedule (for example, following a dynamic link budget). When a channel is available to provide feedback (e.g., via a telecommand link), the transmission scheme can be dynamically adjusted using the Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM) mode.

The use of the DVB-S2 standard for telemetry makes possible the use of generic Very High Scale Integrated Circuits (VHSIC) Hardware Description Language (VHDL) Intellectual Property (IP) modules for developments. The use of a widely implemented standard simplifies finding transmitting or receiving equipment to check compatibility. Finally, for the ground part, some telecom DVB-S2 receivers or Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) developed for the telecom market could be reused.

ISO 20207:2015 is an adaptation profile describing how to use the DVB-S2 standard to transmit CCSDS Transfer Frames for telemetry purpose. The interface between CCSDS and DVB-S2 is based on the Attached Synchronization Marker (ASM) and Channel Access Data Unit (CADU) already introduced in reference [2].

DVB-S2 is used in this adaptation profile as a complete and self-sufficient standard, and definitions and specifications taken from DVB-S2 are applicable only in the context of this Recommended Standard.  However, individual DVB-S2 functions or components (e.g., VCM/ACM, 8-PSK, and higher-order modulations) might be reused, redefined, and/or respecified by CCSDS in future Recommended Standards.


Space data and information transfer systems — Delta-DOR Raw Data Exchange Format

Systèmes de transfert des informations et données spatiales — Format d'échange des données brutes Delta-DOR

Delta-DOR (Delta Differential One-Way Ranging) is a Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) technique that can be used in conjunction with Doppler and ranging data to improve spacecraft navigation by more efficiently determining spacecraft angular position in the plane of sky. It involves the use of multiple ground stations, possibly belonging to different agencies, for simultaneous acquisition of either spacecraft or quasar signals (see reference [D2]).

This Delta-DOR Raw Data Exchange Format (RDEF) Recommended Standard specifies a standard format for use in exchanging Delta-DOR raw data among space agencies. Delta-DOR raw data exchange is required every time the data correlation involves at least one participating station not belonging to the agency responsible for the correlation. ISO 20208:2015 includes specifications on the parameter fields that the data format has been designed to meet. For exchanges where these specifications do not capture the needs of the participating agencies another mechanism may be selected.

Space data and information transfer systems — Security architecture for space data systems

Systèmes de transfert des informations et données spatiales — Architecture de sécurité pour les systèmes de données spatiales

ISO 20214:2015 is intended as a high-level systems engineering reference to enable engineers to better understand the layered security concepts required to secure a space system. As such, this document is a Security Architecture for Space Data Systems (SASDS).

This architecture uses the views described in the Reference Architecture for Space Data Systems (reference [B1]) developed by the CCSDS Architecture Working Group.

The SASDS will be used:

?         to establish an overall CCSDS conceptual framework for the incorporation of security into the data systems of space missions;

?         to define common language and representation so that risks, requirements, and solutions in the area of security within space data systems can be readily communicated;

?         to provide a source of information for the security architects on a space mission to use to develop the system security design;

?         to facilitate development of standards in a consistent way so that any standard can be used with other appropriate standards in a system.


Space data and information transfer systems — CCSDS cryptographic algorithms

Systèmes de transfert des informations et données spatiales — Algorithmes cryptographiques CCSDS

The algorithms contained in ISO 20215:2015 are recommended for use on space missions with a requirement for information (e.g., data, voice, and video) confidentiality, authentication, or authenticated confidentiality.  The algorithms may be employed on any or all mission communications links such as the forward space link (e.g., telecommand), the return space link (e.g., telemetry, science data), as well as across the ground data network.  They could as well be used to ensure confidentiality and authenticity of stored data.

A symmetric algorithm assumes that all communicating entities possess a shared secret (i.e., a ?key') which enables them to encrypt, decrypt, and authenticate information shared among them.  The manner in which the shared secret is distributed and managed (key management) is not within the scope of this document. Further information on key management can be found in Space Missions Key Management Concept (reference [B22]).

Space data and information transfer systems — Spacecraft onboard interface services — File and packet store services

Systèmes de transfert des informations et données spatiales — Services d'interfaces à bord des véhicules spatiaux — Services de mémoire fichiers et mémoire paquets

ISO 20217:2015 defines the Spacecraft Onboard Interface Services (SOIS) File and Packet Store Services (FPSS). The definition encompasses specification of the service interface exposed to onboard software (user applications and libraries) as well as the conceptual mapping of the FPSS primitives to the protocols implementing such services.

The SOIS File and Packet Store Services are for use by onboard software to:

?         Access, and manage files residing in a file store. The files residing in the file store could contain any type of data, including for example telemetry, commands and command sequences, software updates, imagery, and other science observations.

?         Access and manage packets residing in a packet store. It should be noted that the packet store may or may not be aware of, and its actions may or may not be informed by, the contents of a packet.

To achieve this, the FPSS comprise the following services:

?         File Access Service (FAS);

?         File Management Service (FMS);

?         Packet Store Access Service (PSAS);

?         Packet Store Management Service (PSMS).

It should be noted that the SOIS File and Packet Store Services do NOT define the file and packet stores themselves, but only their minimum provided service. The initialization and configuration of the file and packet stores is out of scope for this document.

Information technology — Generic coding of moving pictures and associated audio information — Part 1: Systems

Technologies de l'information — Codage générique des images animées et du son associé — Partie 1: Systèmes

ISO/IEC 13818-1:2015 specifies the system layer of the coding. It was developed principally to support the combination of the video and audio coding methods defined in Parts 2 and 3 of ISO/IEC 13818. The system layer supports six basic functions:

1)    the synchronization of multiple compressed streams on decoding;

2)    the interleaving of multiple compressed streams into a single stream;

3)    the initialization of buffering for decoding start up;

4)    continuous buffer management;

5)    time identification;

6)    multiplexing and signalling of various components in a system stream.

A Rec. ITU-T H.222.0 | ISO/IEC 13818-1 multiplexed bit stream is either a transport stream or a program stream. Both streams are constructed from PES packets and packets containing other necessary information. Both stream types support multiplexing of video and audio compressed streams from one program with a common time base. The transport stream additionally supports the multiplexing of video and audio compressed streams from multiple programs with independent time bases. For almost error-free environments the program stream is generally more appropriate, supporting software processing of program information. The transport stream is more suitable for use in environments where errors are likely.

A Rec. ITU-T H.222.0 | ISO/IEC 13818-1 multiplexed bit stream, whether a transport stream or a program stream, is constructed in two layers: the outermost layer is the system layer, and the innermost is the compression layer. The system layer provides the functions necessary for using one or more compressed data streams in a system. The video and audio parts of this Specification define the compression coding layer for audio and video data. Coding of other types of data is not defined by this Specification, but is supported by the system layer provided that the other types of data adhere to the constraints defined in 2.7.

Size designation of clothes — Part 3: Methodology for the creation of body measurement tables and intervals

Désignation des tailles des vêtements — Partie 3: Méthodologie de création de barèmes de mensuration du corps et des intervalles

This document describes the principles of the establishment of tables for body measurements, defines the categories of tables (related to intervals), and lists the population groups (infants, girls, boys, children, women, men) and sub-groups to be used for developing ready-to-wear garments. The body measurement tables and intervals are mainly used by the clothing sector to make the development of well-fitting products easier and more accurate.

The described methodology is mainly based on the application of statistical analysis, using body dimension data. The statistical level has deliberately been kept to a low level in order for the content to be made readily comprehensible to the widest possible readership.

This methodology is applicable to various sets of body dimensions. It can be useful to determine intervals for the size designation as described in ISO 8559-2. Values in the tables in this document are examples.

Garment dimensions are not included in this document.

It is necessary to use a general approach providing inbuilt flexibility, in order to keep the whole sizing system capable of adapting to changes (e.g. demographic criteria), because body shape and proportions for any one targeted population group differ significantly.

NOTE       ISO 15535 can be convenient for recording and organizing the population data.
