The
Client
Xilinx,
the world's no. 1 supplier of digital programmable logic solutions,
including integrated circuits, software and service, and the fifth
largest overall supplier of custom logic chips.
The
Challenge
To
produce both CD and web-enabled versions of Xilinx semi-conductor
parts manuals and engineering specifications for engineers designing
with Xilinx products.
Key
Xilinx requirements:
- A
single, turnkey solution for both CD-ROM and web products.
- The
ability to search for parts using key product characteristics
in addition to full-text search.
- Japanese
language search capabilities.
The
Solution
Doclinx
built an end-to-end CD/web publishing system for Xilinx using
its core Docsan® publishing and search technology.
The
principle benefits to Xilinx:
- A
single publishing system with seamless support for both CD-ROM
and the web.
- CD-ROM
and web delivery systems use the same Java applet for search
and retrieval, providing identical user experiences for all
customers and reducing support costs for Xilinx.
- Doclinx'
proprietary Parametric Search technology, which augments conventional
full-text search by allowing customers to locate manuals by
specifying product characteristics.
- Built-in
support for international character sets, ensuring that the
system will continue to meet Xilinx' needs in its increasingly
global marketplace.
The
Results
For
Xilinx, increased sales and reduced cost by providing efficient
access to product information via CD-ROM and the web.
