Technical Evaluation of a Guide for Selecting Formats and Media for Presenting Maintenance Information.

Abstract

This report presents the results of an evaluation by Westinghouse Electric Corporation of a document titled 'A Guide for Selecting Formats and Media for Presenting Maintenance Information' dated November 1976. The document was prepared by BioTechnology, Inc., Falls Church Virginia, under contract with the David W. Taylor Naval Ship Research and Development Center in Bethesda, Maryland and was produced as part of the Navy Technical Information Presentation Project (NTIPP). The report also discusses the applicability of the F/M guide to a re-write of the Hagan ACC/FWC TM. The findings of the evaluation support the following recommendations: Develop draft writing specification encompassing the selection parameters embodied in the guide; Apply the draft specification to a rewrite of the Hagan ACC/FWC TM; and Evaluate the effectiveness of both products in 'real-world' environment.
