We took a tour of the turbine plant and became familiar with Solar Turbine's products. What an amazing operation! They use turbines and compressors to power everything from small mines to massive offshore oil rigs all over the world.
My job, as of now, will be to compile, trouble-shoot and assemble the manuals that are sent out with Solar's products. They are looking to automate their assembly operation so that's apparently where my experience comes in. But I have been looking into how they use SGML, PDFs, HTML and Solaris UNIX to create complex documents to ship to customers world-wide.
But I can't really get into the automation phase of this project until I get familiar with the production aspect. Already I've seen a need for some JavaScripted tools that we could link to the PERL compilation to generate a tree-like file structure to display images.
