Smartlogic's Semaphore, the Open Semantic Platform, Has Been Named by KMWorld as a Trend-Setting Product of 2010
Semaphore, the open semantic platform developed by Smartlogic, that adds semantic capabilities to information management systems, has been officially named by KMWorld Magazine as a 'Trend-Setting Product' of 2010.
- (1888PressRelease) September 30, 2010 - Smartlogic's Semaphore, the Open Semantic Platform, was recently selected from among 600 entries as a new entry onto the KMWorld 'Trend-Setting Products' list.
Smartlogic was chosen over some heavyweight competition in the field of semantic search, with its Semaphore software singled out for its unique three component capabilities to analyze, classify and reveal content by offering ontology management, content classification and search enhancement.
This semantic intelligence delivers a step change in how users manage, find, explore and use content by adding advanced classification and user experience capabilities to information management systems.
KMWorld, as a leading information provider serving the knowledge management systems market, and with an online and in-print readership made up from over 55,000 individuals in a wide variety of businesses and disciplines, are well placed to assemble such a list. The Trend-Setting Products selection panel represents a broad range of information management disciplines, comprising industry journalists, market and technology analysts, KM theoreticians and practitioners, system integrators, vendors, line-of-business managers and users.
Published annually since 2003, the KMWorld Trend-Setting Products list is well-known for setting the information management industry standard when it comes to identifying technology breakthroughs and is now widely agreed to be the place to look for the shape of things to come.
With a notably rigorous selection criteria, this year's Trend-Setting Product list was no exception. Each and every product chosen by the panel was expected to demonstrate what Hugh McKellar, editor-in-chief of KMWorld and final decision-maker, describes as "thoughtful, well-reasoned innovation and execution for the most important constituency of them all: the customer".
KMWorld place a distinct emphasis on establishing that each Trend-Setting Product that makes the grade serve the vendors' full spectrum of constituencies - especially their customers.
The semantic approach to information management exemplified with Semaphore's open semantic platform improves the accuracy and efficacy of information intensive tasks such as applying metadata and finding information, as well as enabling content integration across disparate sources. This combination delivers the highest return on an organisations information assets and significantly enriches the user's search experience.
Smartlogic's CEO Jeremy Bentley comments, "This is a tremendous honour. Smartlogic are delighted to have received such an accolade from KMWorld. It confirms us as thought-leaders in the field of information and knowledge management. That the Semaphore open semantic platform meets the tough set of criteria set by the panel and can stand up to the stiff competition is validation in itself but more importantly, receiving the Trend-Setting Product award demonstrates that the commitment made by our customers in Semaphore is resonated by a wider audience of our peers".
