15、tem for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees c

16、ollaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Stand

17、ards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publicatio

18、n as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. In exceptional circumstances, when the joint technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for

19、 example), it may decide to publish a Technical Report. A Technical Report is entirely informative in nature and shall be subject to review every five years in the same manner as an International Standard. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the su

20、bject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/IEC TR 11581-1 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 35, User interfaces. ISO/IEC 11581 consists of the following parts, und

Icons can pr

23、ovide a language-independent means of communicating information to the user. They can facilitate the users ability to learn, understand, and remember functional elements of the system, and aid in the manipulation of these elements. They are especially suitable for elements that are frequently used a

24、nd where the meaning of the icon can be easily understood. Typically, icons draw on a users environment to provide a metaphorical representation of the users tasks, objects, actions, and attributes. A metaphor provides an analogy to concepts already familiar to the user, from which the user can dedu

25、ce the systems use and behaviour. Icons can express the metaphor directly, as graphical representations of the metaphorical objects. They may also directly represent a physical object. Icons are distinguished from other user interface symbols by the fact that they represent underlying system functio

26、ns. Icons represent the objects, pointers, controls and tools making up the domain of an application that users manipulate in doing their jobs. They can also represent status indicators used by the computer system to give information to the user and to mediate user interactions with software applica

27、tions. While the most common form of icons is as a graphical icon, icons can also be rendered in auditory or tactile modalities.

28、dards 1 Scope This part of ISO/IEC 11581 introduces the ISO/IEC 11581 series and provides developers and other icon standards users with an overview of currently available and future anticipated icon standards. This part of ISO/IEC 11581: describes the structure of parts that will be used to encompa

29、ss all present and future icon standards; introduces currently existing icon standards, whether they are parts of ISO/IEC 11581 or they have their own separate numbers; recognizes that currently existing standards will eventually be replaced by new parts; NOTE This part of ISO/IEC 11581 will be revi

30、sed as new parts of ISO/IEC 11581 become available, adding to or replacing the set of existing parts. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 icon user interface symbol representing an object and/or function of the computer system NOT

31、E 1 Within this part of ISO/IEC 11581, “icon“ is also used to refer to the function or object represented by the user interface symbol. An icon, which is generally rendered using an identifiable user interface symbol, is much more than just a user interface symbol, it also includes functionality (ei

32、ther as the object it represents or as the function that it represents). NOTE 2 The concept of a symbol is used in the most generic of senses and can be rendered in various modalities. Some renderings of these user interface symbols include: visual (graphical) icons, auditory icons, and tactile icon

33、s. ISO/IEC 11581-10, definition 3.4 3 Applicability of icons Icons can be used to represent user interface objects, actions, and/or attributes. While icons are often graphically (visually) presented in a user interface, they can also be presented aurally or tactiley. The use of icons is most applica

34、ble to common user interface objects, actions, and/or attributes that are used repeatedly within an application and across multiple applications. ISO/IEC TR 11581-1:2011(E) 2 ISO/IEC 2011 All rights reservedIcons can be used to: aid in immediate recognition of the user interface object, action, and/

35、or attributes; save presentation space or time; provide representation of the user interface object, actions, and/or attributes that is culturally and linguistically independent and thus accessible to the widest possible range of users. The ISO/IEC 11581 series of standards deals with icons that are

36、 generally applicable to a wide range of applications. 4 Overview of current icon standards 4.1 ISO/IEC 11581-2 Object icons ISO/IEC 11581-2 addresses only object icons, which are icons that represent functions by association with an object and that can be moved and opened.
