Research Projects on Enterprise Search

Enterprise Search is the search technology on top of or integrated within any information system. It captures all available repositories, regardless the format or origin and creates and index that is built on crawled content. The technology makes internal and external information accessible and by means of a personalized navigation the information searcher is able to be guided to the right information. This search technology registers and analyzes search behavior and results. Basically this search technology has three ingredients, which are:

  1. the content,
  2. the user and
  3. the matching that takes place between the content and the user.

It is clear that the Enterprise Search Technology is entering a new phase of deployment: the trend of using metadata to understanding the content, which enables a clever matching process. But metadata also plays a role on the user side, because the more we know about our user, the better we can determine which result is relevance.

Search alternatives

The Search Technology reaches a large amount of industries, can been unrolled for several purposes and via multiple channels. Four new alternatives for Search have been defined, which are upcoming since the user of Search is becoming more and more spoiled with user-based content and companies are searching for new interesting business models. These are:

 Matching Product Variants in E-Commerce
 Search as a Service Researching

Further development

Netwiz combines these research studies with various Research Institutes. The aim is to not just deploy technology on known problems, but also to find the edge of what Search Technology could do for its customers. Search Technology as a cross discipline solution is a quite new phenomenon and can use further investigation to bring promising results in industry. See the devisions in which Netwiz is already processing.
