Publisher's Synopsis
The ETDE/INIS Joint Thesaurus contains the controlled terminology for indexing all information within the subject scope of both the INIS (International Nuclear Information System) and ETDE (Energy Technology Data Exchange) information systems. The terminology is intended for use in subject description for input or retrieval of information in those systems. The Joint Thesaurus contains over 29000 terms with hierarchies showing their interrelationships. The Thesaurus is the result of continued editing carried out in parallel to the processing of input to the INIS and ETDE Databases, and is one of the most authoritative sources of terminology in the fields of nuclear and energy technology. The present document (in two volumes) supersedes INIS Reference Series No. 13, INIS: Thesaurus (Rev. 38) (1999).
