Welcome

Welcome to the website of the Australian Specification Maintenance Working Group.

This website is a dedicated resource of information and discussion on various standards for production of technical documentation, including S1000D and SCORM.

The austechpubs website contains information on a variety of document standards, each contained within their own 'portal'.

The portal menus on the left of the page can be used to navigate to the desired information or discussion board.

 Please be aware this site is in it's infancy and may undergo further changes as more content is added.

From Wikipedia.org, the free encyclopedia: S1000D is an international specification for the procurement and production of technical publications. It is an SGML/XML standard for preparing, managing, and using equipment maintenance and operations information. It was initially developed by the AeroSpace and Defence Industries Association of Europe (ASD) for use with military aircraft. The standard has since been modified for use with land, sea, and commercial equipment. S1000D is maintained by the Technical Publications Specification Maintenance Group (TPSMG), which includes board members from ASD, the United States' Aerospace Industries Association (AIA), and the Air Transport Association (ATA), along with national industry and defence representatives from most of the countries currently using the standard. The standard is free to download and use, although it is recommended that advice be sought on the best methods for implementing an S1000D repository.

From Wikipedia.org, the free encyclopedia: Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) is a collection of standards and specifications for web-based e-learning. It defines communications between client side content and a host system called the run-time environment (commonly a function of a learning management system). SCORM also defines how content may be packaged into a transferable ZIP file.

SCORM is a specification of the Advanced Distributed Learning (ADL) Initiative, which comes out of the Office of the United States Secretary of Defense.

SCORM 2004 introduces a complex idea called sequencing, which is a set of rules that specify the order in which a learner may experience content objects. The standard uses XML, and it is based on the results of work done by AICC (CBT), IMS Global Learning Consortium,[1] IEEE, and Ariadne.
