ISO/IEC 19773 specifies small modules of data that can be
used or reused in applications. These
modules have been extracted from the ISO/IEC 11179-3 standard (Metadata
Registries — MDR), ISO/IEC 19763 (Metamodel Framework
for Interoperability — MFI), and OASIS EBXML, and have been refined
further. These modules are intended to
harmonize with current and future versions of the ISO/IEC 11179 series and the
ISO/IEC 19763 series. These modules
include: reference-or-literal (reflit) for on-demand
choices of pointers or data; multitext, multistring,
etc. for recording internationalized and localized data within the same structure;
slots and slot arrays for standardized extensible data structures; internationalized
contact data, including UPU postal addresses, ITU-T E.164 phone numbers,
internet E-mail addresses, etc.; generalized model for context data based upon
who-what-where-when-why-how (W5H); data structures for reified relationships and
entity-person-groups. Conformity can be
selected on a per-module basis.
