Semantic Search

Digital Bullet Points

  • The Linked Web is a Semantically Structured web that opens up siloed databases
  • The Open Data Movement is transforming the direct gov site of government information that makes the Freedom of Information a tangible reality.
  • Tim Bern-Lee, the new British digital Czar is orchestrating a £30 million pound Semantic enhancement of government data for the benefit of access and relevance.
  • Awareness: Technologies  are  collecting data at a stupefyingly increasing rate about people, places, products, processes.
  • Analysis: Businesses are requiring more discerning intelligence and analytics software that apply rules to the data being collected in order to make effective use of it.
  • Alternatives: These rules of structure  assess whether certain conditions are then triggered.
  • Actions: This is the specified outcome triggered through all the previous steps.
  • Auditability: The ability to use all of the above to add more intelligence to an application or system over time.

It all comes down to this: The future of computing is less about what we as humans do with technology. It’s about what technology does for us automatically, guided but unseen by us.
