Norms and regulations
Glossary entries name the standard or legal act that defines them. This index collects those references in one place — from ISO 12100 and IEC 61508 to the AI Act and 21 CFR Part 11 — so you can start from a norm and find every term that depends on it.
The index is compiled automatically from the reference field of each glossary entry and grows with the glossaries. It shows where a document is cited, not whether it applies to your product: naming a standard or law never implies compliance, and status and dates are stated in the entries themselves.
