Chapter 4. Terminology and standards
-
Sue Ellen Wright
Abstract
This chapter views terminology-oriented activities related to standards, focusing on communities of practice. It ranges from word-oriented models to concept-oriented terminological resources, then spans the full semantic spectrum. It addresses lexicography and discourse-oriented terminology management as well as taxonomies, metadata systems for Linked Open Data strategies, concept registries, and ‘thing’-oriented repositories. It cites terminology orientation, i.e., concept orientation, term-like units, semantic ordering systems, and harmonization aimed at a Single Source of Truth. ISO standards address discourse-oriented terminology management, including translation-oriented terminology management and team-oriented industrial environments, terminology exchange, and interoperability. Tight coupling in constrained resources and effects on relative semantic strength with respect to openness and machine accessibility round out the high end of the semantic spectrum.
