ENV 12264:1997 is a standardization document published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). Its full title is "Medical informatics - Categorical structures of systems of concepts - Model for representation of semantics". This standard covers: This European Prestandard is applicable to the description of the categorial structure of systems of concepts supporting computer-based terminological systems, including coding systems, for health-care. Categorial structures provide a mechanism to outline the content of a given computer-based terminological system; make its regularities explicit, for suitable computer-based exploitation; coordinate the work on design and maintenance of computer-based terminological systems, and the application of these terminological systems by software developers.
