解説
問 2
Incorrectア
Incorrect. ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) is an organization that manages and coordinates Internet resources such as domain names and IP addresses; it is not a standardization organization in the fields of industry and science/technology. The organization that handles international standardization across broad fields such as industry and science/technology is ISO.
Incorrectイ
Incorrect. The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is an international standardization organization in the field of electrical and electronic technology, not an organization in the field of e-commerce. It is a trap designed to make you confuse the similar-looking terms electrical and e-commerce (electronic commerce).
Incorrectウ
Incorrect. The IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) is a professional society in the fields of electrical, electronic, and information/communication technology, well known for standardization such as LAN standards (the IEEE 802 series); it is not an organization in the field of accounting. Accounting is not a field handled by IT international standardization organizations.
- エ
正解 The correct answer is エ. The ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is a specialized agency of the United Nations responsible for the international standardization of the field of telecommunications, such as telephone, radio, and satellite communications. It carries out tasks such as allocating frequencies and issuing recommendations on communication methods, so the choice describing it as an international standardization organization in the field of telecommunications correctly matches this role.
ここがポイント
- The correspondence between major international standardization organizations and their fields: ISO = broad fields such as industry and science/technology, IEC = electrical and electronics, ITU = telecommunications, IEEE = electrical/electronics and information/communications (such as LAN standards).
- Note that ICANN is an organization that manages Internet resources such as domain names and IP addresses, and its role differs from that of the so-called field-specific standardization organizations.
