| Source: | Encyclopedia of Electrical & Electronics Engineering. 1999 1st Edition, Vol. 6, p10-24. 15p. |
| Subjects: | Electronic data processing documentation, Computer networks, Wide area networks, Iterative methods (Mathematics), Internet, Online information services |
| Abstract: | The article focuses on written information, designing documents that others will look at rather than primarily listen to and that others will read (or at least read parts of) rather than just watch. Written (and graphic) information may also be disseminated in many ways: in print, on line as a stand-alone document, on line embedded in another product (for example, an on-line help system or an electronic performance support system), through an Intranet or the World Wide Web. To be successful, a document must be sufficient, accurate, and usable. Developing any type of document requires an iterative process of planning, creating, reviewing, revising, and testing. |
