Expertise
Companies today must maintain control of the increasing amount of data they handle. The Intelligent Content and Semantics (ICS) team at CETIC develops methods and tools for information management in business, targeting unstructured information on the Internet, private networks or specific domains, like media and health.
Some intrinsic features of information make it difficult to manage. CETIC designs and builds solutions, and provides advice that helps SMEs cope with the advent of the Internet and integrated enterprise information systems, as well as constantly changing digital content, which is becoming overwhelmingly abundant, but remains poorly structured.
Beyond indexing and classification, CETIC’s expertise in semantic technologies enables the team to offer much more powerful solutions to these issues. Following the semantic Web standards (RDF, OWL, SKOS, SPARQL), the team contributes to powerful and interoperable content management solutions aimed both at users and at further software processing. In alignment with this approach, CETIC recognizes the importance of the Linked Data paradigm as an example of the capabilities of these technologies, and actively supports its increased use in the field of health care.
