S1000D® Issue 41 and Issue 42 Navigation Map

Victoria Ichizli-Bartels

Summary

S1000D has become the preferred technical standard for complex technical publications because it offers comprehensive definitions for information captured in XML across the entire product life-cycle. It offers many options that satisfy the requirements of the defense and civil sectors, being implemented for products ranging from small hand-held devices to those that fly, float or move on land.  
The availability of these multiple options results in the Specification being considerably large and complex. The frequency with which S1000D is updated, along with the requirement to lower the cost of products in general (and technical publications specifically), have resulted in pressure to accelerate S1000D implementation. To do so, users of S1000D, new and seasoned, must, therefore, learn quickly, and be given access to requisite information regarding its implementation.  
Like its predecessor, this resource offers a unique approach to how information on the Specification is usually structured. It orders various Business Rules Decision Points (BRDP) defined in S1000D Issue 4.1 and Issue 4.2 into linear BRDP chains, to provide linear topic maps with clearly emerging associations and occurrences. 
This resource can be used: 
• To navigate the Specification while learning to work with it; 
• To find references on your topic of interest; 
• To navigate the Business Rules Decision Points Index in a logical order; 
• As a first draft Table of Contents for an S1000D implementation map for your project or organization; 
• As a checklist for your project or organization on what parts of S1000D to implement or not; 
• To compile easily editable and sharable to-do lists to implement your project; 
• As logic or algorithm to feed into a software tool and generate business rules documentation; 
• And more.

The Checklist Manifesto - How to...

Atul Gawande

The New York Times bestselling author of Better and Complications reveals the surprising power of the ordinary checklist.
We live in a world of great and increasing complexity, where even the most expert professionals struggle to master the tasks they face. Longer training, ever more advanced technologies‚Äîneither seems to prevent grievous errors. But in a hopeful turn, acclaimed surgeon and writer Atul Gawande finds a remedy in the humblest and simplest of techniques: the checklist.First introduced decades ago by the U.S. Air Force, checklists have enabled pilots to fly aircraft of mind-boggling sophistication. Now innovative checklists are being adopted in hospitals around the world, helping doctors and nurses respond to everything from flu epidemics to avalanches. Even in the immensely complex world of surgery, a simple ninety-second variant has cut the rate of fatalities by more than a third.
In riveting stories, Gawande takes us from Austria, where an emergency checklist saved a drowning victim who had spent half an hour underwater, to Michigan, where a cleanliness checklist in intensive care units virtually eliminated a type of deadly hospital infection. He explains how checklists actually work to prompt striking and immediate improvements. And he follows the checklist revolution into fields well beyond medicine, from homeland security to investment banking, skyscraper construction, and businesses of all kinds.
An intellectual adventure in which lives are lost and saved and one simple idea makes a tremendous difference, The Checklist Manifesto is essential reading for anyone working to get things right.A Macmillan Audio production.
