Metanorma IEEE SA document attributes

Note

Document attributes listed below are unique to the processing of IEEE SA documents in Metanorma.

For common document attributes, see Document attributes reference in general Metanorma author’s documentation. That page describes attributes that apply to all Metanorma flavors, not just IEEE SA.

For an introduction to Metanorma AsciiDoc document attributes and how Metanorma uses them, see the corresponding topic.

:doctitle:

Document title.

Note
 Do not include the words "Draft {Guide/Standard/Recommended Practice} for", these words are supplied automatically by Metanorma.
Note
 The :doctitle: value can also be set using the first line of the Metanorma AsciiDoc markup, prefaced by `= ` instead of setting the document attribute.
:document-scheme

The document scheme that this document aligns to. Metanorma will enforce alignment as appropriate, including by supplying predefined sections.

Accepted values:

ieee-sa-2021

(default)

  • A "Word usage" subclause will be supplied at the end of the "Overview" clause with contents defined in the IEEE SA Style Manual 2021.

  • The "Participants" clause will be automatically generated according to IEEE SA requirements using the information supplied by the user-defined "Participant" clauses.

legacy

(all unsupported values fall back to legacy) Metanorma will not supply the "Word usage" subclause and will not generate or modify the "Participants" clause.

:program:

Program under which a white paper was authored [added in https://github.com/metanorma/metanorma-ieee/releases/tag/v1.1.6].

Document relationships

:merges:

This document incorporates the document(s) with the nominated identifiers (semicolon-delimited). In IEEE identifiers, indicated as incorporated.

:updates:

This document is an update of the document(s) with the nominated identifiers (semicolon-delimited). Applies to revisions, as well as to appendices and corrigenda.

Document contributors

General

There are multiple types of contributors to an IEEE SA document, and the document displays full provenance of where the document was developed, balloted and eventually approved.

The basic information of these groups are entered as document attributes, including:

  • the working group

  • the balloting group

  • the standards board, at the time of publishing the document.

Members of these groups are entered in the Participants clause.

Society

An IEEE SA document is sponsored by or developed by an IEEE society. This IEEE society is prominently displayed on the cover page.

Note
 This is mandatory information.
society

The IEEE society responsible for the document. Do not include the "IEEE" prefix.

Example 10. Example for IEEE SA society
:society: Computer Society

Committee

An IEEE SA document is developed within a working group under an IEEE SA committee. This IEEE SA committee is prominently displayed on the cover page.

Note
 This is mandatory information.
committee

The committee responsible for the document.

Example 11. Example for IEEE SA committee
:committee: C/AISC - Artificial Intelligence Standards Committee
:committee: Standards Activities Board

Working group

An IEEE SA document is developed by a working group.

Note
 This is mandatory information.

An IEEE SA working group can be one of two modes (more details at process):

  • Entity-based: members are IEEE SA member organizations

  • Individual-based: members are individual contributors

    working-group

    The working group responsible for the document. Include any final "Working Group" text in the group name.

    Example 12. Example for IEEE SA working-group
    :working-group: Spatial Web Working Group

(Rendered as: the Spatial Web Working Group had the following membership:…​)

Members of the working group are to be listed in the Participants clause.

Balloting group

The balloting group, or balloting committee, is the group that recommends the document for approval as a standard by the IEEE SA Standardization board.

The balloting group is composed of voting members of the working group, or the committee that the working group belongs to.

balloting-group

The Standards Association balloting group responsible for the document. Do not supply the final "Standards Association balloting group" text in the group name; that is supplied by Metanorma.

balloting-group-type

The type of the Standards Association balloting group responsible for the document, individual or entity (default: individual).

Members of the balloting group are to be listed in the Participants clause.

Standardization board

The IEEE Standardization Board at the time of document publication is rendered in the document preface.

Members of the IEEE SA Standardization Board (SASB) are to be listed in the Participants clause.

Personal authors

White papers require personal authors to be specified, as follows:

:surname:, :surname_2:, :surname_{i}:

Surname of personal authors

:givenname:, :givenname_2:, :givenname_{i}:

Given name of personal authors

:contributor-position:, :contributor-position_2:, :contributor-position_{i}:

Job title of personal authors

Sponsors

The sponsoring bodies, if any, are indicated through the :sponsor: and :sponsor-subdivision: attributes.

As with other author values, multiple instances of sponsoring organisations and their subdivisions are indicated as :sponsor_2: and :sponsor-subdivision_2:, :sponsor_3: and :sponsor-subdivision_3:, etc.

The values of :sponsor-subdivision_{i}: can be:

The different hierarchical levels can optionally be prefixed with type and a colon.

On the front cover, if it is a sponsor, "IEEE" is prefixed to the first subdivision, rather than being rendered on a separate line.

The following is an example of how two divisions of the IEEE are indicated as sponsoring the document:

Example 13. IEEE subdivsion sponsors to a document
:sponsor: IEEE
:sponsor-subdivision: "Power & Energy Society", Power System Communications Committee; Communications Society, Standards Committee

rendered as:

Sponsored by the
Power System Communications Committee
of the
IEEE Power & Energy Society
and the
Standards Committee
of the
IEEE Communications Society

Note
 The quotation marks are needed to process the CSV correctly.

Visual appearance

:hierarchical-object-numbering:

If set, do not number tables and figures consecutively throughout the body of the document, but restart numbering with each clause (hierarchically).

Use in complex documents, with multiple tables or figures, that need to be tracked against clauses for ease of lookup (so Figure 6-3, Figure 6-4, instead of Figure 21, Figure 22.)

Document processing

:ieee-dtd:

The location of the IEEE XML DTD [added in https://github.com/metanorma/isodoc/releases/tag/v0.1.0]. Used to validate any IEEE XML generated for the document.
