Abstract
The results of a study of consistency of terminology in a group of standards and related documents dealing with software engineering are presented. A lack of consistent definition of some key terms is identified. Possible strategies to address the problem are suggested; such steps would lead in the longer term to a more coherent and understandable set of documents
