Section 8 - Standards Activities

 

8.1   Objectives

The objectives of the IEEE's standards activities are 

 

To develop and publish broadly accepted standards and other standards-related documents that will advance the theory and practice of electrical engineering, electronics, computer science, radio, and allied branches of engineering or the related arts and sciences, and

To work with other standardizing bodies, both national (of any country) and international, to take available needed standards in the field of electrotechnology.

 The term "standards" as used in Section 8 encompasses recommended practices and guides as well as standards documents that delineate specific requirements.
