Topic orientation in technical communication
Technical communication faces the challenge of conveying complex information clearly and comprehensibly. Traditionally, information is organized in comprehensive, coherent documents. Each document deals with a variety of topics that are often presented in a linear structure. Changes and updates often require searching and revising the entire document, which can be time-consuming and error-prone. It also raises the question of whether users really always need an entire document or just parts of the document.
