ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English is a guideline that regulates the wording and writing style used in technical publications. Originally developed for the aerospace industry, it is now widely used also outside the aviation industry, including companies in the defence, machinery, electronics, semiconductor, medical equipment, IT, and hi-tech industries.
