Services Architecture
April 19, 2023 Slide 2
The Problem
• It’s increasingly difficult to find quality information on the Internet. Easy to find an address, or company’s website but, more difficult to research or learn. – Nearly 70% of business professionals agree
that finding information is a difficult process; 61% of them believe they have a less than 75% chance of finding the information they need. - Delphi Group, 2002

The Problem
• Lack of effective tools for analyzing and sharing information– “Despite the broad array of existing
information management technology tools, knowledge workers are still unable to find the needed information to perform their jobs or they must spend an inordinate amount of time seeking that information.” Delphi Group, 2002

VisIT• VisIT®, helps people sort out the
“noise” and learn from their results.• VisIT® provides quality information.• VisIT® allows users to learn from
other users and reduces the need for many people to do the same search (you can start with an experts results).
• VisIT® is a Web Services model that can allow a variety of analytical tools to plug in to help the user analyze information from numerous sources.

Wrap Up• VisIT can augment existing search
engines making them smarter, more current and comprehensive as well as working with its own search engine which can be directed by its users.
• VisIT search spaces can be saved by users and shared with others making VisIT the only search tool with “reusable” search results. Imagine if you could get search results organized by a world renowned expert instead of 2 million hits in a list!
