  2. describe representation of concepts and characteristics, for use especially in formal computer-based concept representation systems,

  3. describe the characteristics which synthetically describe the organisation and content of a terminological system in health,

  4. support the development of specific standards on categorial structures for particular healthcare subject fields with the minimum requirements to support meaningful exchange of information.
