The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers-Standards Association (IEEE-SA) and the Korea Electric Association (KEA) signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to share knowledge of each group's standards development activities, avoid technical duplication and perform and promote, directly or indirectly, regional and international standardization in their fields of common interest.
Under the terms of the MOU, the IEEE-SA and KEA will exchange information about ongoing standards development activities and will focus on working projects where there is a shared interest, said the IEEE-SA.
KEA will identify leaders and technical experts to engage in IEEE technical committees and help promote direct participation through review of and comment on IEEE draft standards.
In addition, the IEEE-SA will cooperate with KEA on standards education activities in Korea.
"In Korea, there is a growing awareness of standards as a tool for improving exports and development of technology," said Chun-Jin Park, KEA standing vice-chair. "This agreement will help us to strengthen the Korean standards system and improve our participation in standards development on an international level."
The MOU between IEEE-SA and KEA is effective for two years.
