The public preview gives the heading only. - concept section (body not public) - Clause - ISO/IEC 22989:2022/FDAmd 1 - Last updated: 2026-10-21 ## What this clause settles The page is a reading of the published structure and the public entries. It does not invent the body of a clause that ISO has not published, and it does not turn a heading into an obligation. For Cognition and cognitive computing, the page keeps the claim level "concept section (body not public)" visible and says where the public text stops. ## Who it binds The organisation that adopts the vocabulary. The clause is not a shall requirement; the claim level states what it is. ## What to do in your practice Take the clause into the next governance review with two questions: which artefacts rely on it, and which sentence would a reviewer quote to show the firm uses it? Record the answers as actions with dates. Start with the artefacts that cite Cognition and cognitive computing and work outwards. ## Evidence an auditor or regulator asks for - A policy map that names Cognition and cognitive computing and the clause it comes from. Shows that Cognition and cognitive computing was read and placed, not merely cited. - A controlled vocabulary register for the entries in Cognition and cognitive computing, with an owner and a review date. An auditor asks who keeps the Cognition and cognitive computing entries current, not only whether they exist. - One live artefact that uses a term from Cognition and cognitive computing correctly, with the date it was checked. Connects Cognition and cognitive computing to the work rather than to a shelf document. Ask your teamWhich artefact in the firm relies on Cognition and cognitive computing, and who keeps it current? ## Common gaps this page catches - Cognition and cognitive computing is cited without the entries behind it, so the citation cannot be tested. - The clause is treated as a checklist when it is a vocabulary, and counting terms is not the same as controlling them. ## What to prepare before the amendment lands Take Cognition and cognitive computing into the next review, list the artefacts that rely on it and give each a named owner. The Cognition and cognitive computing list is the plan; the owner is the control. ## How to test it here Take one live artefact rather than a template, find the sentence or field where Cognition and cognitive computing is used, and put this page beside it. Record the answer, the artefact and the date, because that record is the evidence and a glossary entry on its own is only an intention. ## What this page does not claim The page does not reproduce the standard, certify the firm or predict the wording the amendment will use; it states Cognition and cognitive computing at the claim level "concept section (body not public)" and stops where the public record stops. ## Common questions What does Cognition and cognitive computing mean in ISO 22989? This section expands cognition and cognitive computing. The public preview gives the heading only. What evidence should we keep for 5.5? A policy map that names Cognition and cognitive computing and the clause it comes from. A controlled vocabulary register for the entries in Cognition and cognitive computing, with an owner and a review date. Is Cognition and cognitive computing a requirement? No: Cognition and cognitive computing is a definition or clause of a terminology standard, and it becomes binding only when a firm writes it into a policy, a contract or a procedure, or when another standard incorporates it. ## Related units - 5.1 General - 5.2 From strong and weak AI to general and narrow AI - 5.3 Agent Source.
