8、601:1992 ii BSI 01-2000 National foreword This BritishStandard has been prepared under the direction of the Information Systems Technology Standards Policy Committee. It is identical with ISO8601:1988 “Data elements and interchange formats Information interchange Representation of dates and times”,

9、including Technical Corrigendum1. It supersedes BS4760:1971 and BS5249-1:1976, which are withdrawn. In1992 the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) accepted ISO8601:1988 and technical corrigendum1:1991 as European Standard EN28601:1992. As a consequence of implementing the European Standard

10、this BritishStandard is renumbered as BSEN28601 and any reference to BS7151 should be read as a reference to BSEN28601. Terminology and conventions. The text of the International Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as a BritishStandard without deviation. Some terminology and certa

11、in conventions are not identical with those used in BritishStandards; attention is drawn especially to the following. The comma has been used as a decimal marker. In BritishStandards it is current practice to use a full point on the baseline as the decimal marker. Wherever the words “International S

12、tandard” appear, referring to this standard, they should be read as “BritishStandard”. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of i

26、since1971, different forms of numeric representation of dates and times have been in common use in different countries. Where such representations are interchanged across national boundaries misinterpretation of the significance of the numerals can occur, resulting in confusion and other consequenti

27、al errors or losses. The purpose of this International Standard is to eliminate the risk of misinterpretation and to avoid the confusion and its consequences. 0.2 This International Standard includes specifications for the numeric representation of information regarding date and time of the day. 0.3

28、 In order to achieve similar formats for the representations of calendar dates, ordinal dates, dates identified by week number, periods of time, combined date and time of the day, and differences between local time and Coordinated Universal Time, and to avoid ambiguities between these representation

29、s, it has been necessary to use, apart from numeric characters, either single alphabetic characters or one or more other graphic characters or a combination of alphabetic and other characters in some of the representations. 0.4 The above action has had the benefit of enhancing the versatility and ge

30、neral applicability of previous International Standards in this field, and provides for the unique representation of any date or time expression or combination of these. Each representation can be easily recognized, which is beneficial when human interpretation is required. 0.5 This International St

31、andard retains the most commonly used expressions for date and time of the day and their representations from the earlier International Standards and provides unique representations for some new expressions used in practice. Its application in information interchange, especially between data process

32、ing systems and associated equipment will eliminate errors arising from misinterpretation and the costs these generate. The promotion of this International Standard will not only facilitate interchange across international boundaries, but will also improve the portability of software, and will ease

33、problems of communication within an organization, as well as between organizations. 0.6 Several of the alphabetic and graphic characters used in the text of this International Standard are common both to the representations specified and to normal typographical presentation. 0.7 To avoid confusion b

34、etween the representations and the actual text, its punctuation marks and associated graphic characters, all the representations are contained in brackets . The brackets are not part of the representation, and should be omitted when implementing the representations. All matter outside the brackets i

35、s normal text, and not part of the representation. In the associated examples, the brackets and typographical markings are omitted. 1 Scope and field of application This International Standard specifies the representation of dates in the Gregorian calendar and times and representations of periods of

36、 time. It includes a) calendar dates expressed in terms of year, month and day of month; b) ordinal dates expressed in terms of year and day of year; c) dates identified by means of year, week numbers and day numbers; d) time of the day based upon the24-hour timekeeping system; e) differences betwee

37、n local time and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC); f) combination of date and time; g) periods of time, with or without either a start or end date or both. This International Standard is applicable whenever dates and times are included in information interchange. This International Standard does not

38、 cover dates and times where words are used in the representation. This International Standard does not assign any particular meaning or interpretation to any data element that uses representations in accordance with this International Standard. Such meaning will be determined by the context of the

39、application. 2 References ISO31-0:1981, General principles concerning quantities, units and symbols. ISO31-1:1978, Quantities and units of space and time.

40、For the purposes of this International Standard, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 complete representation the representation that includes all the date and time elements associated with the expression 3.2 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) the-time scale maintained by the Bureau Internat

41、ional de IHeure (International Time Bureau) that forms the basis of a coordinated dissemination of standard frequencies and time signals NOTE 1The source of this definition is Recommendation460-2 of the Consultative Committee on International Radio (CCIR). CCIR has also defined the acronym for Coord

42、inated Universal Time as UTC (see also5.3.3). NOTE 2UTC is often (incorrectly) referred to as Greenwich Mean Time and appropriate time signals are regularly broadcast. 3.3 date, calendar a particular day of a calendar year, identified by its ordinal number within a calendar month within that year 3.

43、4 date, ordinal a particular day of a calendar year identified by its ordinal number within the year 3.5 day a period of time of24hours starting at0000 and ending at2400 (which is equal to the beginning of0000 the next day) 3.6 format, basic the format of a representation comprising the minimum numb

44、er of components necessary for the precision required 3.7 format, extended an extension of the basic format that includes additional separators 3.8 Gregorian calendar a calendar in general use introduced in1582 to correct an error in the Julian calendar.

In the Gregorian calendar, the months of the calendar year, listed in their order of occurrence, are named and contain the number of days as follows: January(31), February(28 in common years;29 in leap years), March

47、(31), April(30), May(31), June(30), July(31), August(31), September(30), October(31), November(30), December(31) NOTEIn certain applications a month is regarded as a period of30days. 3.13 period a duration of time, specified a) as a defined length of time (e.g.hours, days, months, years); b) by its

48、beginning and end points. 3.14 second a basic unit of measurement of time in the International System of Units (SI) as defined in ISO31-1 3.15 truncated representation the abbreviation of a complete representation by omission of higher order components starting from the extreme left-hand side of the
