Preface
This is the first edition of CSA Standard CAN/CSA-Z243.58-92, Information Technology Vocabulary. This bilingual dictionary was developed to communicate and standardize information technology usage in Canada for both specialists and users.
The Canadian Advisory Committee to SC1 of ISO/IEC JTC1 felt that a publication of this nature could be used as a medium for standardizing terminological usage in a field that is constantly changing. It contains basic vocabulary describing computer systems technology with fundamental terms related to the latest technological developments such as OSI and expert systems. In this first edition, special attention was given to the preparation of user-oriented definitions.
Grateful acknowledgement is made to the Department of the Secretary of State of Canada, which provided the human and financial resources necessary for both the research and production of this Standard. Particular thanks are due to the Terminology and Linguistic Services Directorate for its c ontinued support and to Carmen Bernleithner for her review of the final version.
This Standard was prepared by the Canadian Advisory Committee to SC1 of ISO/IEC JTC1 under the jurisdiction of the Standards Steering Committee on Information Technology and was formally approved by these Committees. It has been approved as a National Standard of Canada by the Standards Council of Canada.
