It presents, in two languages, terms and definitions of concepts relevant to information processing and identifies relationships between entries. To facilitate translation into other languages, definitions are drafted so as to avoid any peculiarity attached to language. Deals with input and output of data, transfer and conversion methods and also with search techniques.

This International Standard is intended to facilitate international communication in information processing. It presents, in two languages, terms and definitions of selected concepts relevant to the field of information processing and identifies relationships between the entries.

In order to facilitate their translation into other languages, the definitions are drafted so as to avoid, as far as possible, any peculiarity attached to a language.

This part of ISO 2382 (which will comprise some twenty-six parts) deals in particular with input and output of data, transfer and conversion methods and also with search techniques.
