IEEE 1063 Glossary Definition

IEEE 1063 is a withdrawn or superseded standard associated with IEEE for Technical Writing and Documentation work. It supports Technical Writing and Documentation by shaping how professional information is planned, written, structured, governed, or delivered.

IEEE software user documentation standard retained as historically significant and qualified as withdrawn/superseded by newer user-information standards. Professionals may encounter it in documentation programs, governance reviews, training initiatives, compliance work, standards research, or change efforts depending on the setting. Its status should be checked before contractual or compliance use, and the record qualifies the lifecycle status rather than treating the item as automatically current.
