Abstract
This paper introduces a procedural model for the configuration of modular content. The model helps to decrease the amount of effort necessary to generate individual documents for learning and application. It provides precise instructions and a standardised procedure for implementing user requirements as well as situation-specific document requirements. By considering a set of scenario-specific design recommendations, the described procedure enables the author to generate individual documents, even when he is not familiar with the underlying cognitive conditions. Finally, the configuration model and the modularisation approach are key prerequisites to generating user-specific documents within a reasonable amount of effort.

DESIGN 2008 Conference was founded on the continuous development of organization and evaluation procedure that resulted in a capacity to deliver procedures and conditions of communicative competence. To assist the process of development for the engineering design research community the organizers of DESIGN 2008 propsed seven core areas for the conference as described below. It was required explicitly from all contributors to show how they are contributing to the overall area to emerge communities...
