Cambridge, England - June 24, 2005 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AUTN.L) today announced that its project with GovNet Communications, www.searchthepublicsector.co.uk, last night received an award in the category of ' Most effective use of information' at the 2005 Effective IT Awards.
The Effective IT 2005 Awards are completely independent and designed to recognize genuine excellence in the use of IT. The emphasis is on rewarding projects that have not only helped save money, but that have delivered tangible benefits to the business in terms of improved processes or enhanced capabilities.
Govnet's innovative website www.searchthepublicsector.co.uk, which is powered by Autonomy's technology, provides the public with a gateway to information on all aspects of the UK government, including content from all local and central government departments, government and executive agencies and over one hundred non-departmental public bodies. Govnet's service is free and can be accessed via www.searchthepublicsector.co.uk or GovNet's corporate website, www.govnet.co.uk.
Autonomy helps visitors locate the most relevant information on www.searchthepublicsector.co.uk by understanding the conceptual meaning of their query. Based on advanced pattern-matching algorithms, the technology enables users to formulate their queries in natural language questions, such as 'How does the UK parliament work?' or 'What is the Department of Transport's latest policy on street safety?'. The system then locates the most exact matches to these queries, understanding the full meaning of the questions in their accurate context.
Sophisticated personalization features further allow individuals to create their own user space and register their interests on the GovNet website, delivering the most relevant information directly to their account. Autonomy's automatic agents continuously comb the searchthepublicsector.co.uk sources for matching content, alerting individuals to the latest critical news and keeping them right up to date.
Mark Phillips, Director of Communications at GovNet said, "We are proud that www.searchthepublicsector.co.uk has been recognized in this year's 'Most Effective Use of Information' category. www.searchthepublicsector.co.uk provides the first service on the internet that takes Freedom of Information a step further. Rather than simply allowing the public to request information from the government, the website brings information directly to the individual, fast, conveniently and unbureaucratically. As a company in the private services sector, we are especially pleased to have achieved this major step."
Charlotte Herbert, Global Marketing Manager Autonomy commented, "We are delighted to announce that the jury has chosen our project for the Effective IT Awards. This award is a recognition of Autonomy's continuous efforts to improve the way we use and interact with information, through features such as personalization, automatic hyperlinking and conceptual retrieval. www.searchthepublicsector.co.uk is a prime example for the benefits the technology can bring to organizations in both the public and private sectors, by breaking up information silos and making content freely available to all."
