NIST会议将聚焦互换性

AMTeam.org消息：美国标准与技术学会（NIST）下周的会议将聚焦互换性标准。

太多软件标准的存在使得运作如同没有标准一样糟糕，NIST的会议将聚焦制定更为明确的标准不同格式的软件可以通讯。NIST的官员表示，不兼容的标准如同私有软件一样都使得研究人员无法交流数据。

3月13号～17号的会议将聚焦如下主题：保证供应链数据互换的XML标准；制造行业和医疗卫生记录所需要的信息浏览和通讯技术标准以及传感器标准。

Brief: NIST Conference To Focus On Interoperability

The National Institute of Standards and Technology will shine the spotlight on interoperability standards during a conference next week.

Operating on the premise that too many software standards can be as harmful as no standards, the NIST (Gaithersburg, Md.) conference will focus on developing specs that allow software to communicate across different formats. Incompatible standards, NIST officials said, often have the same effect as proprietary software: impeding data exchange among researchers.

The conference, March 13-17, will focus on: XML standards used to exchange supply chain data; open information and communications technology standards used for manufacturing and health care records management; and sensor standards.
