This document covers the development process for designers and developers of information for users of software. It describes how to establish what information users need, how to determine the way in which that information should be presented, and how to prepare the information and make it available. It is not limited to the design and development stage of the life cycle, but includes information on design throughout the life cycle, such as design strategy and maintaining a design.<\/p>\n
This document provides requirements for the structure, information content, and format of information for users of software.<\/p>\n
This document can be applied to developing the following types of information, although it does not cover all aspects of them:<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 information for users of products other than software;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 multimedia systems using animation, video, and sound;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 computer-based training (CBT) packages and specialized course materials intended primarily for use in formal training programs;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 maintenance information describing the internal operation of systems software;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 information for users incorporated into the user interface itself.<\/p>\n
This document is applicable to information architects and information developers, including a variety of specialists:<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 information architects who plan the structure and format of information products;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 usability specialists and business analysts who identify the tasks that the intended users can perform with the software;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 developers and editors of the written content of information for users;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 graphic designers with expertise in electronic media;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 user interface designers and ergonomics experts working together to design the presentation of the information on the screen.<\/p>\n
This document is also a reference for those with other roles and interests in the process of developing information for users:<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 managers of the software development process or the information-development process;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 acquirers of information for users prepared by suppliers;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 usability testers, reviewers of information for users, subject-matter experts;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 developers of tools for creating information for users;<\/p>\n
\u2014\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 human-factors experts who identify principles for making information for users more accessible and easily used.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
