INTEL FIRST TO DEBUT SGML TECH DOC VIA WWW; SGML FORMAT ENHANCES DATA
SEARCH

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- July 10, 1995 -- Intel Corporation announced the
release of a collection of product technical documents in the SGML
(Standard Generalized Markup Language) format on the World Wide Web (WWW),
making it the first electronics supplier to do so. Using a native WWW
viewer, SGML enables users to quickly search for specific information and
permits the user to download selected technical data without the hardware
or software conversions previously required. Today, approximately 24
SGML-formatted technical documents can be viewed at Intel's home page -
http://www.intel.com - in the PC Developer Support and Embedded Design
Products sections.

Intel's customers depend on accurate and timely access to technical
specifications and application development information to facilitate
system design.The release of technical data in the SGML format puts this
information at their fingertips while also helping third-party tools and
equipment suppliers improve customer support, said Dianne Armer, Intel's
manager of interactive marketing.

Using custom navigators that identify structures within the document, such
as a table of contents, figures and tables, design engineers and
programmers can search Intel documents exactly for the information they
need before downloading files to their system. Intel's SGML documents can
be accessed by downloading a viewer, called Panorama Free by SoftQuad,
Inc. of Toronto, Canada (instructions for downloading the viewer are
available from Intel's WWW site).

Intel's current posting of SGML technical documentation includes data
sheets and application notes for a range of components including Intel's
Pentium processor family (75-, 90-, 100-, 120- and 133-MHz versions),
other microprocessors, microcontrollers and flash memory products. The
technical documentation page includes a registration card and features a
comments and survey section to solicit feedback for program improvements.

Intel's WWW-site technical documentation pilot system, initiated in
December '94, will expand within the year to include component technical
documents from across the company, according to Armer.

SGML, an ISO standard, allows documents to be created and described
independent of any hardware, software, formatter or operating system,
enabling files to be seamlessly exchanged between different systems. SGML
files separate text from graphics, making the files smaller and more
easily downloaded than alternative helper applications. Graphic files,
represented by icons, are downloaded only if the user selects them.

Intel used the Pinnacles Component Information Standard's (PCIS) Document
Type Definitions (DTD) as the conversion basis for its technical
documentation to SGML. PCIS is a draft technical information interchange
standard for use by the electronics industry for the creation of
electronic data books. It is an industry initiative developed jointly by
Hitachi America, Ltd., Intel Corporation, National Semiconductor, Philips
Semiconductors and Texas Instruments Semiconductor Group.

Intel, the world's largest chip maker, is also a leading manufacturer of
personal computer, networking and communications products.
