Abstract
The authors assess the impact that sophisticated software and hardware tools have on the work of technical writers, and they explore the need for tools that fully utilize the functionality that advanced technology systems can provide. Three development trends in advanced technology environments are discussed: formal software engineering methods, complex applications, and new products. Finally, the need for standardization is addressed
