Full Unit-wise Syllabus
The official PDF prints this content as two headings (Basic concepts of standardization; International Standards in Computer Science). It is split into four short units below for readability; wording is unchanged.
Unit I – Basic Concepts of Standardization
Purpose of Standardization, marking and certification of articles and processes; Importance of standards to industry, policy makers, trade, sustainability and innovation. Objectives, roles and functions of BIS, Bureau of Indian Standards Act, ISO/IEC Directives; WTO Good Practices for Standardization. Important Indian and International Standards.
Unit II – International Standards in Computer Science
Introduction – Importance of standards in IT – Overview of key international standards organizations ANSI and IEEE Standards – ANSI standards for software engineering (e.g., ANSI/ISO/IEC 12207:2008 – Software Life Cycle Processes) – IEEE standards and their applications in software engineering (e.g., IEEE 830–1998 – Requirements Specifications) – ISO/IEC 20000: IT Service Management – Scope and requirements – Service delivery process – Certification and implementation challenges – ISO 9000 Series: Quality Management – Overview of ISO 9001 – Quality management principles – Certification process and benefits.
Unit III – ITU-T, IETF and W3C Standards
ITU-T Standards in Telecommunications – Overview of ITU-T series (e.g., ITU-T X.509 for public key infrastructure) – Impact on global telecommunications standards – IETF Standards in Internet Protocols – Overview of key IETF standards (e.g., RFC 791 for IPv4) – Evolution and adoption of internet protocols – W3C Standards for the World Wide Web – Key W3C standards (e.g., HTML5, CSS3, Web Accessibility Guidelines) – Role of standards in web development and interoperability.
Unit IV – ISO/IEC 27001, NIST and ACM
