Preface<\/strong><\/p>\n

Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development. Through the CSA Technical Committee on Information Technology (TCIT), Canadians serve as the SCC Mirror Committee (SMC) on ISO\/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 on Information Technology (ISO\/IEC JTC1) for the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the ISO member body for Canada and sponsor of the Canadian National Committee of the IEC. Also, as a member of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Canada participates in the International Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (ITU-T). <\/p>\n

For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as CAN\/CSA-ISO\/IEC 19778-1 throughout. <\/p>\n

At the time of publication, ISO\/IEC 19778-1:2015 is available from ISO and IEC in English only. CSA Group will publish the French version when it becomes available from ISO and IEC. <\/p>\n

Scope<\/strong><\/p>\n

1.1 Statement of scope <\/p>\n

1.1.1 ISO\/IEC 19778 <\/p>\n

ISO\/IEC 19778 is applicable to collaborative technologies used to support communication among learners, instructors and other participants. The implementation and communicative use of these technologies entails the creation of information related to participant groups, and to the collaborative environments, functions and tools that are set up for, and used by, these groups. This part of ISO\/IEC 19778:-, together with its subsequent parts, defines Data Models that enable the portability and reuse of this data in integrated form, and allow Data Model instantiations to be interchanged, stored, retrieved, reused or analysed by a variety of systems. <\/p>\n

NOTE 1 A typical case of reusing a particular collaborative workplace Data Model instantiation (and its interlinked collaborative environment and collaborative group Data Model instantiations) is the automated set-up of new collaborative workplaces by using the specifications in the Data Model instantiations as templates. <\/p>\n

NOTE 2 The reason for providing the specification for a collaborative workplace using several Data Models and their instantiations is to provide flexibility in the further development of these standards in future editions. By providing optional references to potential further specifications or standards, this approach goes far beyond the parts of ISO\/IEC 19778 and the limited number of information elements provided by them. <\/p>\n

1.1.2 This part of ISO\/IEC 19778 <\/p>\n

This part of ISO\/IEC 19778 specifies a table-based approach for defining Data Models. This Data Model specification is used for specifying the collaborative workplace Data Model. The same Data Model specification is also used in ISO\/IEC 19778-2 and ISO\/IEC 19778-3 to define the related components of the collaborative environment (ISO\/IEC 19778-2) and the collaborative group (ISO\/IEC 19778-3) in separate Data Models. <\/p>\n

NOTE 1 This Data Model specification is also used in ISO\/IEC 19780. <\/p>\n

The collaborative workplace Data Model specifies the Data Model Elements and their interrelationships that enable the creation of collaborative workplace Data Model instantiations. <\/p>\n

Any conforming collaborative workplace Data Model instantiation describes or specifies a particular collaborative workplace with which it is associated. <\/p>\n

NOTE 2 How the association of a particular collaborative workplace Data Model instantiation and a particular collaborative workplace is implemented is outside the scope of this part of ISO\/IEC 19778 (i.e. is dependent on the implementation of the used collaboration system). <\/p>\n

Any conforming collaborative workplace Data Model instantiation <\/p>\n
