ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2 Coded character sets is a standardization subcommittee of the Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1 of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), that develops and facilitates standards within the field of coded character sets. The international secretariat of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2 is the Japanese Industrial Standards Committee (JISC), located in Japan.[1]

History

සංස්කරණය

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2 was established in 1987, originally with the title “Character Sets and Information Coding,” with the area of work being, “the standardization of bit and byte coded representation of information for interchange including among others, sets of graphic characters, of control functions, of picture elements and audio information coding of text for processing and interchange; code extension techniques; implementation of these coded representations on interchange media and transmission systems."[2] The standardization activities of the subcommittee were originally under the jurisdiction of ISO/TC 97. However, when the Joint Technical Committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1, was established in 1987 as a merger between ISO/TC 97, Information Technology, and IEC/TC 83, the standardization activity was transferred to the new subcommittee, ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2. Certain standards that are now under the jurisdiction of the ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2, such as ISO/IEC 646, were published before the creation of ISO/IEC JTC 1, under ISO/TC 97.[3] The original working groups of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2 were: WG 1 “Code Extension Techniques,” WG 2 “Multiple-octet Coded character set,” WG 3 “7-bit and 8-bit Codes,” WG 6 “Control Functions,” and WG 8 “Coded Representation of Picture and Audio Information.” Since then, the subcommittee has established or disbanded working groups in response to changing standardization needs within the field of coded character sets.[2]

Scope and mission

සංස්කරණය

The scope of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2 is the “Standardization of graphic character sets and their characteristics, including:”[4]

  • String ordering
  • Associated control functions and their coded representation for information interchange
  • Code extension techniques

The scope of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2 does not include audio and picture coding.

Structure

සංස්කරණය

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2 has one active working group (WG) which carries out specific tasks in standards development within the field of coded character sets. The focus of this WG is described in the group’s terms of reference. The one active WG of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2 is:[2][4][5][1]

Working Group/Other Working Group Working Area
ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2/WG 2 Universal coded character set

The discontinuation of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2/OWG-SORT was unanimously approved by resolution at the 2014 plenary meeting of ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2. The project, ISO/IEC 14651, which was allocated to ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2/OWG-SORT is now handled directly under ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2.[6]
