Libraries, the Internet, and information management share many similarities. In the beginning, books were indexed by author, title, subject, and publication date for easy retrieval. Over time, the number of fields (metadata) increased in order to improve the quality of searches, until full text was added to further broaden searching capabilities. Information management and the Internet have followed the same path. Access to information is the ultimate goal, though issues still remain, as it is excessively difficult to ensure the quality of metadata and place full text in context.
Thus, finding a solution to standardize metadata and contextualize information has taken on increasing importance. That’s where Attribute comes in. Based on a system of agile and extensible rules, Attribute allows an organization to extract concepts, metadata, and named entities, providing an automated, intelligent classification.
Attribute can be integrated to several document management and electronic asset management platforms, such as Microsoft SharePoint, GCI’s Ultima, and even the open source Alfresco solution, to name a few. For information on other platforms, please contact us.
