ITU-T X.eaa  ISO/IEC 29115 5th WD sessions held in September
(ITU-T) and November 2009 (ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 27)
 ITU-T proposed change in scope
 a proposal to establish a Collaborative Team with Terms of Reference (ToR)
submitted to ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 27/WG5
 SC 27 accepted a 6th WD with a significantly changed format and new
material. ToR were reviewed, modified and sent to the ISO national bodies.
ToR should be approved in April 2010
In January 2010 the 6th WD, representing major improvements was
sent to the ISO Secretariat for distribution to national bodies
WG 5 requested a one year extension for ITU-T X.eaa  ISO/IEC

It is anticipated that with the establishment of the Collaborative
Team, progress should improve

Committed to Connecting the World
Collaboration
on ASN.1 and Object Identifiers
(Q.12/17 Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1), Object Identifiers
(OIDs) and associated registration)
 ITU-T X.660-series | ISO/IEC 9834 in
collaboration with ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 6
 The Object Identifier Standards. OIDs form a major
part of world-wide unambiguous identification
schemes for security and other purposes
 ITU-T X.668 | ISO/IEC 9834-9 in collaboration
with ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 6
 Registration of tag-based identification schemes

Collaboration
on formal languages
(Q.13/17 Formal languages and telecommunication software)
 ODP Recommendations developed jointly with SC 7 are now in
maintenance phase
 To some extent SDL overlaps the domain of JTC 1/SC 7
LOTOS and E-LOTOS, however (at least for
telecommunications) SDL is more widely used.
 Work plan covers the UML profiles for SDL, MSC, URN and
(possibly) Testing and Test Control Notation (TTCN).
 UML profiles integrate the ITU-T languages using UML as a
framework. Thus (like JTC 1/SC 7) Q.13/17 has interest in OMG
UML, though Q.13/17 uses OMG UML 2.n (not UML 1.4.2 as in
ISO/IEC 19501:2005).
 Q.13/17 has in its scope (though no work is planned): the
CHILL programming language – Z.200, quality issues – Z.400
and Z.450, architecture – Z.600 and Z.601.
