Energistics floats units of measure standard

摘要

Energistics has released V1 .0 of a new units of measure dictionary (UOMD— 2301) standard for public review. UOMD is intended to cover the needs of the oil and gas industry with units 'in current use or which would be reasonably expected to be encountered.' The units are oriented toward use in software. The Energistics UOM work group, which includes representation from PPDM and the SEG, has generated the unit names, symbols, derived units and conversion factors with an eye towards use in software and databases.
