Inmedius Implements S1000D Process Data Module Editor

• Visual Editor Significantly Enhances Productivity with Easy-to-Use WYSIWYG Authoring

Pittsburgh, PA - December 9, 2009 --[ASDWire]-- Inmedius(r), Inc. announces the general release of its S1000D Process Editor, an advanced visualization S1000D(tm) authoring solution enabling clients to quickly and easily produce complex Process Data Modules. Designed by Inmedius' S1000D experts, the Process Editor combines a powerful interface with user-friendly WYSIWYG technology to insure conformance with Specification requirements. Unique to the authoring software is the automatic manipulation of the original complex XML data structures. The result is well-formed, S1000D-compliant files that even non-XML users are able to efficiently create and edit.

"While most S1000D Data Modules have narrative structures, the Process Data Module defines very complicated functionality that is difficult to model in a document-based editor," explained Sean Rushing, Director of S1000D Product and Services, Inmedius, Inc. "Since Process Data Modules contain the most complex logic, necessitating both user interaction and logical branching to generate, they are virtually impossible to construct by hand. Inmedius designed the S1000D Process Editor with the advanced visualization capabilities required to create and manage these intricate documents."


With the Inmedius Process Editor, customers easily author and change Process Data Modules by simply dragging and dropping different components within the flowchart environment. As a result, clients are now able to create richer and more meaningful Interactive Electronic Technical Manuals (IETM).
The Process Editor is one of three Inmedius S1000D authoring solutions, all of which provide a seamless user experience. Like browser-based S1000DauthorPro(tm) XE and the classic S1000DauthorPro, the Process Editor can be integrated with Inmedius S1000Dmanager(tm). A comprehensive project setup and management support system, Manager is one of seven modules in the fully integrated Inmedius S1000D Publishing Suite(tm).
The Process Editor has already been implemented at several large aerospace and defense client sites. General public release and distribution of the new authoring software begins today.
