| Abstract: | Information products, like physical ones , require well- designed platforms from which multiple versions of a product can be easily and efficiently derived. This study investigated the design implications of converting a large subscription-based industry-research firm to an electronic publishing and distribution process. The analysis applied concepts used in designing architectures for physical goods. Electronic publishing technology, in addition to providing a new automated production platform, enabled the firm to move from a traditional document-based publishing paradigm to one more akin to an information refinery based on the storage and integration of modular information-units. |
