It addresses key topics pertinent tothe devel
10、opment of resolutions to the Year 2000 problem. The core of this standard is the definitionsClause which contains the definition for Year 2000 compliance. Two critical aspects of this definitionare: first, the acknowledgment of the significance of documentation associated with technology,and, second
11、, the recognition that compliance is a two-way street, i.e., the proper exchange of datedata is paramount for technology to remain compliant.Keywords:date exchange, remediation techniques, Year 2000 compliantiiANSI/IEEE 2000.1-1998IEEE Standardsdocuments are developed within the IEEE Societies and t
12、he Standards Coordinat-ing Committees of the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. Members of thecommittees serve voluntarily and without compensation. They are not necessarily members of theInstitute. The standards developed within IEEE represent a consensus of the broad expertise o
13、n thesubject within the Institute as well as those activities outside of IEEE that have expressed an inter-est in participating in the development of the standard.Use of an IEEE Standard is wholly voluntary. The existence of an IEEE Standard does not implythat there are no other ways to produce, tes
14、t, measure, purchase, market, or provide other goods andservices related to the scope of the IEEE Standard. Furthermore, the viewpoint expressed at thetime a standard is approved and issued is subject to change brought about through developments inthe state of the art and comments received from user
15、s of the standard. Every IEEE Standard is sub-jected to review at least every ve years for revision or reafrmation. When a document is morethan ve years old and has not been reafrmed, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents,although still of some value, do not wholly reect the present state o
16、f the art. Users are cautioned tocheck to determine that they have the latest edition of any IEEE Standard.Comments for revision of IEEE Standards are welcome from any interested party, regardless ofmembership afliation with IEEE. Suggestions for changes in documents should be in the form of apropos
17、ed change of text, together with appropriate supporting comments.Interpretations: Occasionally questions may arise regarding the meaning of portions of standards asthey relate to specic applications. When the need for interpretations is brought to the attention ofIEEE, the Institute will initiate ac
18、tion to prepare appropriate responses. Since IEEE Standards rep-resent a consensus of all concerned interests, it is important to ensure that any interpretation hasalso received the concurrence of a balance of interests. For this reason, IEEE and the members of itssocieties and Standards Coordinatin
19、g Committees are not able to provide an instant response tointerpretation requests except in those cases where the matter has previously received formalconsideration.

National bodies that are members of ISO or IECparticipate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by therespective organization
25、to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committeescollaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, inliaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.In the field of information technology, ISO and
26、 IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting.Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.Inter

OverviewThe Year 2000 i
41、ssue appears to be a simple problem that is intuitively understood. However, when examinedclosely, the solutions are varied and complex in nature. The essence of this problem is the representation ofthe year as a two-digit number in hardware and software elements of computer systems and other techno
42、lo-gies. This representation may, for example, cause hardware or software malfunctions to occur when a systemdate or application date crosses the year 2000 boundary (whether that is the actual arrival of the date or fordate processing purposes) or when the system or application must refer to a date
43、that occurs on, before, orafter 1 January 2000. These malfunctions can include the following: Incorrect arithmetic calculation, comparison, sorting, or sequencing resulting in the failure of logical,relational, and set-membership operations; Incorrect recognition of leap year; Conict with values in
44、data elds used for non-date purposes, e.g., no date provided, or neverexpires; and Date data eld overow.The two-digit date may not be the sole cause of these malfunctions. They may also result from poor pro-gramming practices or a lack of full understanding of the Gregorian calendar. The consequence
45、s of thesemalfunctions could range from immediate system failures to more insidious long-term data corruptions.The impact of the Year 2000 problem is potentially signicant to virtually any segment of the global digitalinfrastructure and the economies it supports. Among the environments in which crit
46、ical applications may beaffected by Year 2000 issues are: Bio-medical Telecommunications/transportation Finance/banking Aviation/aerospace National security/law enforcement Other critical infrastructureAs this standard is being prepared, many organizations are in various stages of addressing this pr
47、oblem.Some are just beginning to assess the impact on their own information technology (IT) environments. Others1ISO/IEC 16509: 1999IEEE Std 2000.1-1998 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY2 Copyright 1999 IEEE. All rights reserved.have already begun to implement solutions. The rising need for solutions has creat
48、ed a market environmentwherein there are a growing number of organizations offering such solutions. These organizations have alsocreated a diverse set of terms. Many of the terms may seem similar, but will actually have multiple meaningswithin differing environments, which brings the potential for c
49、onfusion to what should be an easily under-stood problem.This standard identies common terms, denitions, and related concepts that have broad applicability to thisarea of work. Those presented herein may be applied wholly or in part to t a specic requirement.A lexicon within which the common terms, denitions, and related concepts are understood is vital.
