This document provides a temporal management reference model for feature-based software and systems product line engineering (feature-based PLE) as defined in ISO/IEC 26580:2021, expanding on the basic configuration management operations, tasks, and methods specified there. Because a PLE factory in ISO/IEC 26580 aggregates shared assets across multiple lifecycle stages and tools, such as requirements, models, source code, mechanical design, electrical design, documentation, test cases, calibration data, and so forth, the version management capabilities of the different lifecycle disciplines, as well as the feature catalogue and bill-of-features portfolio, need to be integrated into a holistic solution. We refer to this integrated PLE factory solution as Temporal Management (TM). As the name implies, the scope of temporal management is product line variation in time, in the context of feature-based PLE as prescribed in ISO/IEC 26580. The reference model for temporal management specifies an alignment-of-systems, where the temporal management system is an aggregation of the constituent version management systems for each of the individual elements in a PLE factory, including shared assets across all lifecycle stages, the feature catalogue, and the bills-of-features. Version management for each of the individual elements in the PLE factory is handled by the version management tools and methods associated with each of the elements, which are elaborated elsewhere and not repeated in this document.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][10][11] Appendix A provides harmonization with this document and these representative version management methods, in the context of broader systems and software configuration management standards. Organizations may incorporate an overall temporal management approach for their temporal management solution that best matches their engineering processes, such as ASME Y14.35[5] and ASME Y14.100[6] for organizations primarily focused on mechanical engineering processes or IEEE Std 828[4] for organizations primarily focused on systems and software engineering processes. The intended audience for this document comprises: — technology providers who wish to provide temporal management for their feature-based PLE factory; — champions within an organization who wish to introduce feature-based PLE into their organization; — IT staff within a PLE organization who introduce and maintain the necessary technology to support temporal management in feature-based PLE; — practitioner stakeholders who use the temporal management tools and methods to practice feature-based PLE; — technical and business managers who sponsor and direct the methods necessary to practice temporal management in feature-based PLE; — university professors, researchers, corporate trainers, and other educators who create and share pedagogical materials and benefits regarding temporal management in feature-based PLE.

 

This document specifies a test method and the minimum requirements for virucidal activity of chemical disinfectant products that form a homogeneous, physically stable preparation when diluted with hard water – or in the case of ready-to-use products – with water. This document is applicable to products that are used in the medical area for disinfecting non-porous surfaces including surfaces of medical devices by wiping or mopping – regardless if they are covered by the Medical Device Regulation [1] or not. Due to the new methods of application of surface disinfectants like pre-impregnated wipes this document was established to cover the different application methods. This document is applicable for four methods of application of products for wiping and/or mopping: a) soaking any non-specified wipe or mop with product; b) spraying the product on any non-specified wipe and / or mop or a specified wipe or mop; c) impregnation of specified wipes or mops by the user with the product according to the manufacturer’s recommendation; d) pre-impregnation of specified wipes or mops by the manufacturer as ready-to-use wipes or mops. In all types of application the water control has to be conducted with the standard wipe (5.3.2.17 a), because it is process or method control. The contact time for the water control is no longer than 5 min. This document does not apply to products that are sprayed on or used for flooding of surfaces, without wiping or mopping during the contact time. In this case, the methods of phase 2/ step 2 without mechanical action apply. The test-surface (5.3.2.16) was selected as a standard surface and should cover all non-porous surfaces. It was not intended to cover the influence of each different surface. This document is applicable to areas and situations where disinfection is medically indicated. Such indications occur in patient care, for example: — in hospitals, in community medical facilities and in dental institutions; — in clinics of schools, of kindergartens and of nursing homes; and can occur in the workplace and in the home. It can also include services such as laundries and kitchens supplying products directly for the patients. NOTE This method corresponds to a phase 2, step 2 test. EN 14885 specifies in detail the relationship of the various tests to one another and to “use recommendations”.

 

This document describes the analytical procedures used to determine the content of tricalcium silicate (C3S), dicalcium silicate (C2S), tricalcium aluminate (C3A) and tetracalcium aluminoferrite (C4AF) of cement starting from a chemical analysis on cement. The method can be applied on all common cements as defined on EN 197-1. This document also describes the calculation procedures for determining of tricalcium silicate (C3S), dicalcium silicate (C2S), aluminate (C3A) and tetracalcium aluminoferrite (C4AF) in the Portland cement clinker as defined in the EN 197-1. In both cases, for cement and clinker, the calculation method is based on the Bogue method assuming each phase has a pure composition. This is a conventional method, whereby the actual mineralogical composition can differ from the results obtained using this method. For the determination of the various chemical species of clinker, cement and basic-complexing residue (BCR) described in this document, the method is indicated in the relevant clause.

 

This document describes a method for the determination of whiteness and the colour of common cements and clinkers. This method can be used to determine the whiteness of white cements defined in the EN 197-1. This document does not apply to colour measurements on cement-based formulated products or cement-based products. The method is based on the measurement of the CIE XYZ trichromatic coordinates and describes the mathematical procedure for converting these coordinates into the CIE 1976 (L*a*b*) colour space. NOTE Although the possible values of the L* parameter range from 0 to 100, this document applies to the range between 70 and 100 (photopic vision).

 

This document describes the method for determining the contribution of cement’s alkali to the alkali-silica reaction process that can occur in concrete or mortar containing aggregates potentially susceptible to alkali attack. The principle is to consider the alkalis from the insoluble part of the cement (generally associated with fly ash, for example, or pozzolans) and the alkali from the diluted part of the cement (generally associated with clinker, gypsum, granulated blast furnace slag, or limestone) [1]. This test method can be used in the framework of preventing the risk of alkali silica reaction [2].

 

This International Standard specifies two test methods for evaluating the antimicrobial activity of products to be marketed for contact lens disinfection by chemical means and for products that are part of a contact lens care regimen. This International Standard is not applicable to the hygienic management of trial lenses. NOTE General disinfection product standards are not applicable to contact lens care products, e.g. EN 1040:1997 and EN 1275:1997.

 

 

This part of EN 196 describes the method for the determination of the compressive and, optionally, the flexural strength of cement mortar. The method applies to common cements and to other cements and materials, the standards for which call up this method. It may not apply to other cement types that have, for example, a very short initial setting time. The method is used for assessing whether the compressive strength of cement is in conformity with its specification and for validation testing of a CEN Standard sand, EN 196 1, or alternative compaction equipment. This part of EN 196 describes the reference equipment and procedure and allows alternative compaction equipment and procedures to be used provided that they have been validated in accordance with the appropriate provisions in this document. In the event of a dispute, only the reference equipment and procedure are used.

 

This document gives guidance on methods for determining and classifying the durability of wood and wood-based materials against biological wood-destroying agents. The methods can be applied to individual wood species and processed wood-based materials, including thermally and chemically modified, and water-repellent impregnated wood. Examples of wood-based materials are oriented strand boards (OSB), particle boards, fibre boards, laminated veneer lumber (LVL), and plywood. However, this document is not intended to give guidance on methods for determining and classifying the durability of wood products, coated wood, and wood polymer composites. Preservative-treated wood is not within the scope of this document, since requirements for the effectiveness of wood preservatives and durability requirements of wood treated with preservatives are regulated in several other European standards. However, this does not apply to modified wood, which is why it is included in the scope of this document. The wood-destroying agents considered in this document are: — wood-decay fungi (basidiomycete and soft-rot fungi); — beetles capable of attacking dry wood; — termites; — marine organisms capable of attacking wood in service. Data on the biological durability of the heartwood of selected wood species considered of economic importance in European countries are presented in Annex A (informative), which also provides information relating to their geographical origin, density, sapwood width and treatability. NOTE Treatability, durability to disfiguring fungi, permeability to water and performance in use of wood and wood-based materials are also important issues. However, because standardized methods aiming to assess and classify these factors do not exist and/or have not been extensively experienced yet, preliminary guidance is given in Annex B (informative) for the classification of wood treatability with aqueous wood preservatives, Annex C (informative) for the classification of the permeability to water, and Annex D (informative) for the durability to disfiguring fungi.

 

This document specifies the apparatus and procedure for determining the effective alkali content of cements and other hydraulic binders.
