With increases in the complexity of information that must be communicated either by or to computer comes a corresponding need to find ways to communicate that information simply and effectively. It makes little sense to force the burden of communication on a single medium, restricted to just one of spoken or written text, gestures, diagrams, or graphical animation, when in many situations information is only communicated effectively through combinations of media.
