Data Search Center for Knowledge-Based Organizations (DSCKBO)

The Problem

Knowledge-based organizations such as research institutes, Knowledge-Intensive Business Services (KIBS) and intelligence agencies face significant challenges owing to the massive amounts of data stored in various databases throughout the organization.

The process of searching for information in different databases and through different access systems and search engines is time-consuming and ineffective. Combining different data sources in order to provide a comprehensive and detailed answer to a complex inquiry normally involves intensive manual processes and takes a long time to complete.

Knowledge-based organizations will benefit from an efficient information retrieval and processing capability that would allow them to promptly locate and access the information they require and process it effectively. In the case of intelligence agencies and other military, defense, HLS and law enforcement knowledge-based organizations, the overriding demand regarding this data searching and processing capability is that the information must be made available within a relevant timeframe.
