American Institute of Physics Opts for Verity Technology to Provide Robust and Powerful Search, Navigate and View Capabilities for its Online Journal Publishing Service

Verity K2 Toolkit and Intelligent Classifier Deliver Rapid, Scalable and Precise Access to Articles in Over 100 Technical Journals

SUNNYVALE, CA and MELVILLE, NY - 2000-12-07 - Verity, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRTY), a leading provider of infrastructure software that powers enterprise and e-commerce portals as well as e-business applications, and the American Institute of Physics (AIP), a not-for-profit corporation chartered to provide publishing and distribution services for scientific and technical societies, today announced that AIP has selected Verity's high-performance portal infrastructure technology, Verity K2 Toolkit, with advanced search, navigate, and view capabilities, to power its Online Journal Publishing Service (OJPS). OJPS currently provides online access to over 100 technical journals, enabling physicists, engineers, and others to locate articles from the year 1975 through to the present. The Verity K2 Toolkit was selected as a key component of the OJPS portal site, because of its scalability, flexibility, accuracy and high performance. Additionally, the Verity Intelligent Classifier will be used to help users to navigate the large volume of information efficiently. It will also enable AIP to disseminate targeted information precisely - streamlining the process of building information retrieval rules to help users increase their productivity.

"OJPS users download approximately 600,000 full-text articles per month, and it's critical that they can quickly and easily find the information they need," said Marc H. Brodsky, Executive Director and CEO for AIP. "Our strategic objective was to choose a robust and powerful technology from an established vendor who was committed to evolving its product line to keep up with Web technology. What set Verity apart was its track record, scalability, and high performance, as well as its supportive personnel."

Verity provides market-leading software for building custom knowledge retrieval applications, helping customers to automatically analyze and intelligently refine their Web-based searches. Verity's technology uses a combination of full text, metadata and knowledge-based methods to index and retrieve textual information stored in a variety of formats across corporate intranets and the Internet. It enables the organization and relevance ranking of selected information, thereby allowing users to filter and evaluate information personalized to their specific needs and interests. Verity technology delivers around-the-clock availability and scalable, high-performance throughput for thousands of users searching over tens of millions of documents with sub-second response.

According to Anthony Bettencourt, president of Verity, Inc., "AIP is providing an extremely valuable service to physicists and engineers by providing affordable access to individuals or institutions with specialized interests. AIP's Online Journal Publishing Service has a unique feature where it offers consumers a choice to purchase individual articles online, instead of having to purchase the entire publication. Those who could not afford, or did not want, to subscribe to the complete line of journals will now be able to get the content they need rapidly, conveniently, and for less money than is possible by traditional hardcopy document delivery. We're excited that our portal infrastructure technology will help scientists and others to quickly and easily share their research for the benefit of mankind."

About AIP's OJPS

The OJPS is comprised of over 100 scholarly publications from the AIP, its Member Societies, Affiliate Societies, and other scientific publishing organizations. The OJPS Virtual Journals provide an online collection of relevant papers from a broad range of "source" journals in the physical sciences. The OJPS also includes SPIN (Searchable Physics Information Notices) Web. This physics research environment provides a set of comprehensive resources for performing research, the most important of which is the ability to search all the scientific journals indexed in the SPIN Database. The SPIN database provides the most current indexing and abstracting of major physics, astronomy, and engineering journals. SPIN, which is continually updated, contains the abstracts of over 100 scientific journals published by the American Institute of Physics and its Member Societies since 1975, as well as selected articles from other scientific journals, totaling close to 1 million articles. Searches can be performed for a single journal or year or across multiple journals or years.

About the Verity&Mac226; K2 Toolkit

Verity K2 Toolkit allows brokered searches across multiple servers and multiple CPUs to provide the most relevant search results from many information sources without sacrificing the speed or accuracy of the results displayed. As the number of users, queries, or amount of data increases, K2 applications can keep pace with increased demands by adding new CPUs or servers to the network without bringing down the application. Providing 24x7 fault tolerant operations, the Verity K2 Toolkit isolates failures of individual nodes or servers from the rest of the system, ensuring that applications are available when they are needed.

The Verity K2 Toolkit also supports Active Server Pages/COM and Java™, allowing easy integration across a wide range of application servers and Java environments, including Microsoft IIS/Site Server, Weblogic, iPlanet, Websphere, Java Server Pages, and Apache with JServ. With Industry-standard C language and Perl APIs, Verity's K2 Toolkit helps speed application deployment and gives corporate accounts added flexibility in application development, especially for e-commerce and business-to-business application solutions.
