To submit a new
IEEE 1451.4-2004 template or a new item in the
template description language (TDL item) to
be considered for publication as an IEEE standard
template, or TDL item, please submit the Template/TDL
Item Application with a copy of the material
to be considered. Following review by the IEEE
Registration Authority, a new template will
be published on the IEEE 1451.4-2004 templates
page, and will be available for download.
If there are
any questions regarding your application, they
will be sent via email to the REQUESTOR.
Applications
are reviewed within 30 days and may require
additional clarification by our review committee.
Once approved,
the application will be processed within 7 business
days from receipt of payment.
Please note that applications expire after 30 days.
As described in the Standard, a company or user
can create templates for use by all to whom the
template description files are distributed. The
template description file is an ASCII text file,
written in TDL, and having a file name extension
of .tdl (see IEEE Std 1451.4.2004 subclause 6.1).
IEEE Standard 1451.4-2004 annex A contains several
examples of the template description file. A template
description file may be submitted to IEEE for
consideration as IEEE template by the manufacturer
who developed the template of significant use,
under the following condition:
The submitted template must have been in use
for a sufficiently long period and by a sufficient
number of users to demonstrate its effectiveness
and freedom from defects.
Requesters should use the registration request
process overview document when preparing requests.
All templates and TDL items must pass the syntax
check program.
