JustSystems, Gilbane Explore Structured Content Frontiers

Webinar Provides Insights to Maximize Future Promises for Business Transformation

NEW YORK and VANCOUVER — October 20, 2008 — Structured content has the potential to fundamentally change how organizations leverage information. While some organizations think of XML and component-based authoring primarily in the context of ‘tech docs’, the reality is that this approach has much broader applicability. Structured content has the potential to transform unstructured information from monolithic and isolated to a free-flowing knowledge currency that can forever change how information is shared and utilized for innovation, problem solving and decision making.

Third in the Developing a Strategic Roadmap for Structured Content webinar series produced jointly by JustSystems and The Gilbane Group, this webinar will explore the frontiers for structured content, including the importance of semantics and how natural language processing will help to bring structured content to the masses.
