ABSTRACT
Suppose you are communications director for a midsized corporation and have
just heard of a thing called Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA),
apparently used for managing corporate information, and you want to know
whether it applies to your company. What you want to do is a thorough
examination of the topic. You want as much depth as you can get. You could
begin by opening Google, and typing “DITA” into the dialog box. The search
engine will give you a page with links to more than 70 million resources. The
first relevant resources is a Wikipedia page that attempts to explain what DITA
is and what it does (2011). The article’s description begins with a paragraph
meant to provide an overview of the topic.
