Morphology

restandardization = restandardize (transparent) = re + standard + ize + ation

This is a regular noun formation from the verb 'restandardize', meaning the process of carrying out that action.

Etymology

Restandardization comes from the prefix re- meaning 'again' and standard meaning 'a rule or level'. So restandardization can also mean making new or updated rules for something that already has rules, like setting new testing or safety standards.
