Factiva - A whole new way to look at search
www.factiva.com Factiva, a Dow Jones and Reuters Company, announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued United States Patent number 6,938,046. The patent, titled “Polyarchical Data Indexing and Automatically Generated Hierarchical Data Indexing Paths”, covers Factiva Intelligent Indexing - the Factiva Industry, Region and Subject Taxonomy and Factiva Company Taxonomy which is applied to all of the content, in all formats and languages, in Factiva’s business news information services.
“Factiva is committed to innovation and creating tools that help businesses organize information so employees can locate content quickly and easily,” said Clare Hart, president and CEO, Factiva. “Factiva Intelligent Indexing is such a tool and by implementing a comprehensive taxonomy, companies can connect employees to the organization’s information assets, ensuring they have easy access to the information they need to be productive and make better decisions, faster.”
Factiva Intelligent Indexing is a method of data categorization, using polyarchical indexing codes and automatically generated expansion paths, for future searching and information retrieval. It involves applying a code, which relates to a subject matter, to a particular document. The codes are then linked with the categories created to represent various subject matters. In order to search for those Factiva documents which contain content in a particular category, Factiva’s search applications can simply retrieve all documents containing the code linked for that category.
Factiva's comprehensive, award-winning taxonomy has been developed over the last 25 years, can be integrated into a portal or intranet, and is flexible, multilingual and easily extensible to satisfy the growing needs of an organization.
Hart continued, “Unstructured data is believed to account for 80 to 85 percent of a typical organization’s internal information. A high-quality, well-maintained taxonomy is crucial if users are to be able to find the right answers quickly and precisely in repositories of articles and documents that are expanding at phenomenal rates. Unless this data is categorized using standard vocabulary terms, it can be extremely difficult to find the precise information needed to make effective business decisions.”
Factiva, a Dow Jones & Reuters Company , provides essential business news and information together with the content delivery tools and services that enable professionals to make better decisions faster. Factiva’s unrivalled collection of more than 9,000 credentialed sources includes the exclusive combination of The Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, Dow Jones and Reuters newswires and the Associated Press, as well as Reuters Fundamentals, D&B, and Bureau van Dijk company profiles.
Factiva’s innovative, XML-based and Web services-enabled technology platform provides access to this rich content collection via Factiva’s role-specific products or through customized enterprise, group or personal solutions. Executives, information professionals, marketers, salespeople, and other professionals can easily monitor and understand the latest news, market trends, and business challenges relevant to them – directly from the Microsoft Office and job-specific applications they use every day.

OSS/J - OSS through Java Initiative
www.ossj.org The OSS through Java Initiative ("OSS" stands for "Operations Support Systems") produces a standard set of Java technology-based APIs that support the business and technology goals of the lean operator:
* End-to-end management of core business processes
* Flexible, component-based solutions
* Standardized technologies to ensure vendor independence
Building on the success of Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE), XML and Web Services technologies in enterprise applications, our APIs help Service Providers jump start the deployment of end-to-end services on next-generation networks and leverage the convergence of telecommunications and Internet-based solutions. The APIs are standardized under the latest Java Community ProcessSM (JCP) program. JCP deliverables for each application area consist of a specification, a reference implementation, and a technology compatibility kit-all of which, including source code, are available to the industry free of charge.
Industry Adoption
Since its inception in September 2000, OSS/J has had the backing of some of the world's leading Network Equipment Providers (NEPs), Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and System Integrators (SIs). More than 60,000 of our APIs have been downloaded and many leading companies have successfully integrated business OSS/BSS applications using OSS/J API's. Early in 2004, leading telecommunications service providers requested that OSS/J create a Service Provider Advisory Council charged with setting Initiative priorities, encouraging industry adoption, building an economic model, and expanding liaisons. At TeleManagement World 2004 in Nice, the TeleManagement Forum announced a joint working relationship with OSS/J based on the two groups' complementary assets. The partnership effectively offers a rapid implementation option to solution developers who are aligning to the TM Forum's Next Generation Operations Systems and Software (NGOSS) framework and who choose to implement in Java and Web services technology.
The demand to keep costs low while addressing the needs of the lean operator have put added pressure on system integrators. OSS/J's careful mapping of its APIs to the TeleManagement Forum's widely adopted enhanced Telecom Operations Map (eTOM) means that all players now have common process integration rules to follow when implementing new solutions. Integration efforts consume far fewer resources, so SIs can concentrate on provide high margin products and services.
OSS/J helps SIs by:
* Common APIs to ensure across the board integration with NEPs and ISVs
* Allows you to please customers by reducing integration costs by up to 70 percent
* Fosters an expanded market place for comprehensive OSS/BSS solutions
* Enables you to respond more effectively to service provider mandates
* End-to-end management of core business processes
* Flexible, component-based solutions
* Standardized technologies to ensure vendor independence
