Technical Report

IndustryTR

Description

Ecma Technical Reports — informative documents providing technical guidance, rationale, or experimental results that support Ecma Standards. Identified by the 'TR/' separator between the publisher token and the sequence number.

Syntax

ECMA identifiers follow three shapes depending on the document class. Standards: 'ECMA-<number>[-<part>]' (the publisher token joins the number directly with no space; part only appears for multi-part standards like ECMA-418-1). Technical Reports: 'ECMA TR/<number>'. Mementos: 'ECMA MEM/<number>'. Edition is separate metadata and is NOT rendered in the printed identifier string.

ECMA TR/101

ECMA TR/53

Components Used

ECMA Technical Report identifiers are composed of these elements:

Publisher

ECMA — joined directly to standard number with no space ('ECMA-262'), separated by a space for TR/MEM ('ECMA TR/101')

e.g.ECMA

Type Prefix

nil for Standards, 'TR' for Technical Reports, 'MEM' for Mementos

:type_prefix

Number

Document number, kept as a string to preserve any leading zeros

e.g.262

:number

Part

Part number for multi-part standards, appended with hyphen (e.g. '-1' in ECMA-418-1)

e.g.1

:part

Edition

Edition metadata (separate from the printed identifier). Decimal editions like '5.1' occur. NOT rendered in to_s.

:edition

Algebraic Relations

Relations that can involve Technical Report identifiers:

Relation	Description	Syntax	Example
Standard	Publisher joined directly to number with no space	`ECMA-<number>[-<part>]`	`ECMA-262`
Multi-part Standard	Standard split into multiple parts	`ECMA-<number>-<part>`	`ECMA-418-1`
Technical Report	TR separated by space + slash	`ECMA TR/<number>`	`ECMA TR/101`
Memento	MEM separated by space + slash, year as number	`ECMA MEM/<year>`	`ECMA MEM/1970`
Without Publisher	Bare form, no leading ECMA token	`-<number> \| TR/<number> \| MEM/<year>`	`-262`
