BALTIMORE , Maryland - Gartner Portals, Content & Collaboration Summit, March 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Autonomy Corporation plc ((LSE: AU.) or (LSE:AU.L)), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced the immediate availability of new advanced features for its Pan-Enterprise Search platform, IDOL (Intelligent Data Operating Layer), at the Gartner Portals, Content & Collaboration Summit taking place in Baltimore , MD from March 26 to 28, 2008.
"Despite standardization efforts, information is scattered across the enterprise among different vendors' software, in different formats, and among numerous servers and laptops," said Mike Lynch , Autonomy's CEO. "Autonomy's Pan-Enterprise Search platform is the only FRCP-compliant enterprise search platform available in the market, delivering a single unified and vendor-neutral platform for searching all file formats and media-types for legal and business purposes."
New advanced features include:
Drag and Drop Personalization is a next-generation functionality enabling users to personalize their information delivery by dragging content of interest into a custom box.
IDOL Deep Video Indexing (DVI) Advanced Features - Autonomy has further enriched its market-leading rich media support by providing powerful technologies for DVI and analytics. DVI differs from other technologies and uniquely tackles the challenge of asset identification and management through its use of groundbreaking methods and technology.
Geo-Cluster Maps - IDOL has enhanced its support for geo-efficiency by providing visualization tools to represent document density per location, thus allowing the administrator to quickly assess usage patterns and make informed decisions about load balancing.
Intent-Based Ranking uses ground-breaking algorithms to determine a user's intent when querying, thereby delivering highly targeted results based on the individual's profile and contextual factors. This new feature ranks results not simply based on popularity, keyword matches or other legacy algorithms, but automatically tailors the results to the user's purpose and the specific query, making search more effective and efficient.
Interlinking - By automatically identifying sub-areas of the document for which there are relevant links, IDOL creates a seamless delivery of related information to the user.
Multi-Dimensional Index & Query Throttling - By using a multi-dimensional index to provide valuable information to the distribution components, IDOL precludes bottlenecks and unbalanced peak loads during the indexing and query process.
Quantum Clustering - Using quantum mathematics to calculate states/concepts within data, conceptual information is more easily and accurately identified. Quantum wave functions are generated around the data, leading to global, stable results without relying on sampling.
