Content Delivery Objectives (User side)

• Create and deliver more and better user-centered information:

– situational (according machine and user situation)

– case-based (following predefined use cases)

– product-/variant-specific (as most as possible)

– suitable media

• Create new business cases / Digital Information Services

Introduction

CDP

Use Case Dependencies & Requirements

for Deliverables & Services

• Sales process / Information & Product Search:

– Overview data and summarized tables

– Specific: Data sheet, technical data, dependency information

•Machine Planning: specific envisaged configuration

• Set-up /Installation: specific context and configuration setting

•Repair planning: specific existing configuration

•Operation/customer services: Detailed information

What is the (recent) focus of content management

and related technologies?

•Most granular Information (topic-based content)

•Metadata enrichment (of topics) according to product

variants

•Automization of CMS processes (generating, publishing)

• Support search & delivery (interfaces, facets, )

•Definition of use-cases (user stories, customer journey, …)

Introduction

CMS

© P ro f. D r. W. Z i e g l e r I 4 I C M

How can we…?

•…manage complexity (product, information, processes)

• … enable and empower writers to produce variant specific,

i.e. configuration-dependant information units

•… plan configurations and relevant parameters, also for

authoring & document creation

•… retrieve information in an efficient way

•… connect to use cases (sales, operation, servicing, …)

•… apply new and appropriate media

•… prove use and relevance of content

Content Management

Creating (native) intelligent content

© P ro f. D r. W. Z i e g l e r I 4 I C M

CMS drivers and demands from industry

Products from industrial engineering and manufacturing are characterized by „mass

customization“ and „globalization“ :

• Short-time development cycles

• Many changes within development phase

• Often changes within time of use (servicing for manufacturing/machines) and reuse of parts

• Use of standard parts & components (mass production)

• Adapting products to customer needs (customization)

• Adapting products to all addressed markets (globalization issues for export-oriented industries)

• Comply with regulations and standards

Software similar; more software variants (branches), platform & agile development;in many cases individual customizing;

CM Methods

© P ro f. D r. W. Z i e g l e r I 4 I C M

CM Methods Basic CM Concepts in TC

•CMS principles

Controlled reuse of content modules (topics) in

multiple delivery structures, documents or media using metadata

•CMS offer technologies for

– Variant management (product & media variants, configuration)

– Version management (change Management)

– Translation management (internationalization, globalization)

– Cross media & publishing management

What is TC focussing for authoring & linguistics?

•Comprehensive writing

•Rules-based writing

•Consistent terminology

•Writing for international markets (translation, localization)

• Self-contained information: topic-based writing

•Definition of target groups (personas) and use cases (user

stories, customer journey, …)

Summary I (CMS)

• Technology and methods are available in CMS for

topic-based and configuration-specific

information creation, document assembling, publishing and provisioning

(packaging). They rely strongly on taxonomic classification.

• Limiting factors are often data quality / process integration within

companies and human factors (complexity of information structures;

„lost in metadata“ of different configurations) as well as a lack of

information planning! (Therefore, also analytics is needed…)

• Planning, analysis and management of processes (like variant

management) depend on metadata quality

Content

Management

© P ro f. D r. W. Z i e g l e r I 4 I C M

Summary /Vision II (CMS)

•Highly structured content, enriched by semantic metadata has been

created, but often only used for (automated) PDF/print production.

(Even though CMS can produce all types of media)

• Latest delivery technologies benefit from and require such structured

content packages

•New media (e.g. chatbots, training, animations, AR/VR/MR) demand

additional or new types of information structures and content

• Wants to select component-type and then

detailed configuration parameters;

wants to compare similar suitable products

• Needs appropriate product with

corresponding specific tech data (specs),

table overview as comparison of variants;

should receive correlated

information about dangers, restrictions

(TC),

benefits (sales)

• Buys component

Use Case / User Story (Installation)

• Installation process of sensor (unexpected

problems)

• Stopped machine; ready for exchange

• Needs concrete information about wiring of

sensor, possible problems and solutions

• App (Android), camera, on-line

• Service technician of customer company

• Knows usual wiring and sensor exchange

procedure

CD Methods

• Maintenance, repair

• Customer

• Errorcodes and related components

• Wants to detect component-type

information for installation

© P ro f. D r. W. Z i e g l e r I 4 I C M

Use Cases / User Stories and CDP kick-off

•Restrict to the most important use cases where benefit and

success can be „measured“

• Start with productive (reference) implementation according

to clearly communicated use cases

•Avoid higly sophisticated use case, unless user story is most

relevant business case

•Develop new digital information services; not another

online-help system no-one uses

• Think of CDP maybe also as an easy to use internal content

communication systeme

Remark on Archiving Service

Regulations require:

•Archiving of content packages and media (timestamp)

•Archiving of transfer data and proof of content delivery

•Archiving of ustomer aggreements and confirmations

•Documentation of systems & processes

•Archiving lifetime (10 y, 30 y or industry dependent)

•Data security (no access) and transfer security (encryption)

• Product monitoring through problem search and analysis

Digitization means, that content

delivered before as paper, will be

increasingly substituted by new

media and formats.

The increase of electronic

information delivery requires to

rethink and to reorganize for

example also corresponding

archiving processes.

Content Delivery & Regulations

© P ro f. D r. W. Z i e g l e r I 4 I C M

Summary (CDP)• Technology of CDP is available mostly for delivery of document

packages and facetted search for contained topics and documents;

Source of facets are mostly taxonomies from CMS

•Remark**:Dynamic aggregation, variant management is (at the

moment) mostly done in CMS, not in CDP; configuration management

needs new approaches because of its more dynamic and complex

structure

•Delivery use cases for successful applications have to be clearly

explored and defined

•Delivery can be developed in addition as Digital Content Service (DCS)

for various external and internal applications and media

Typical challenges arising from taxonomies

•Multi occurences of product components at different

locations (in taxonomy)

•Relations between product components;

Depencies of topics on combinations of components

•Dependencies of additional variant properties between

each other and on product components (configuration

management)

•Dependencies of information types on other taxonomic

values

Intelligence

Cascade• Purpose of Augmented Intelligence is to model the complexity of

real world products and information

•Overcome typical shortcomings of the

taxonomic modelling of metadata

• Introduce model of objects, their properties and (conditional)

relations between each other

as semantic network → Ontologies

© P ro f. D r. W. Z i e g l e r I 4 I C M

Ontologies

•Ontologies represent a modelling technique of describing relevant

aspects of a real-world situation (business cases, information,

processes, …)

• The goal is to model all occuring objects in an abstract way as classes

and the real-world objects as their representations (indiv. instances)

•Relations between objects and their properties are modelled within the

ontology on a class level while further rules can apply (between

instances)

•Ontologies are closely related to computer science (OOP), terminology

management (conceptual systems), philosophy, …

© P ro f. D r. W. Z i e g l e r I 4 I C M

Relationship between PI-Class and iiRDS

• The metadata concept of iiRDS (for topics)has been given

by and derived from PI-Class®. The PI-Fan is a reference

model for both.

• The metadada description of iiRDS is written in RDFs-

notation. (Standardized XML-notation)

•RDF is a light-weight ontology-description language, which

is not relevant for authors, CMS users.

• iiRDS uses explicit metadata values, given by standards

• PI-classified topics can be transformed or mapped to iiRDS

Future Content Access

•microDocs

• System and user tracking

© P ro f. D r. W. Z i e g l e r I 4 I C M

Retrieval Methods by Content User

Hypothesis & first experiences

• The more unexperienced, the more users will use direct search

(full text search)

•Document structures are often designed as print publications or

as a most complete set of information;

therefore, navigation by document structures (toc) will not be

the appropriate (online) retrieval structure

Future

Content Access

Retrieval Methods by Content User

Hypothesis & first experiences

• Facetted search relevant (only) for experienced users, e.g. service

technicians, product managers, production process, …

• Full facets derived form product (component) taxonomies are quite

complex to access;

taxonomies may be (more) relevant in the system background;

→ How can we benefit even more from facets/ taxonomies/classes

and/or ontologies?

Semantic Technologies in TC

•Content delivery and corresponding digital information services (DIS)

benefit from native and augmented intelligence of topic-based

information

•Augmented intelligence relies on semantic technologies for products

and corresponding internal and external information

• Semantic systems can empower

–information managers and writers to cope with product complexity

–information systems to deliver most relevant and specific information

to users (e.g. by microDocs and other services like archiving)

Summary

Semantic Technologies in TC

•Augmented intelligence relies on native intelligence

(classification concepts) used for example in CMS

• Semantic systems using augmented intelligence can empower

– Companies with their various departments to interact based on

explicit models (of products and information, functionality etc.)

– Information managers and writers to cope with product complexity

– Information systems to deliver most relevant and specific information

to users (e.g. by microDocs and other services like archiving)
