ARDENNO ANNOUNCES RELEASE OF ARDENNO TOWN HALL®
Ardenno Town Hall provides Research and Development with relevant views of collaborative information within Ardenno Collaboration Center
Philadelphia, PA. USA and Manchester, UK - (16 May 2006) Ardenno Solutions, Inc., a leading provider of Collaborative Knowledge Management software solutions for research and development, today announced the immediate availability of Ardenno Town Hall®. Town Hall provides users of Ardenno's Collaboration Center with a visually appealing multi-dimensional map based upon indexed content and multi-tiered taxonomies and industry-specific meta tag ontologies.
Ardenno Town Hall utilizes "knowledge communities" as a means to improving the operational efficiency of research and development. While much attention has focused on the explosive growth of social networks for personal lives, Ardenno has taken much of these key concepts and applied the positive communication elements to business. The overwhelming amount of available data continues to challenge the research industry. Research teams need to be able to rapidly identify useful data and the pertinent available files to support their research aim. Town Hall supports research teams' ability to collaborate on the additional knowledge gained to successfully drive forward their projects. The creation of an Ardenno "knowledge community" in Town Hall provides increased content relevancy and a linkage between the available information and individuals across disparate organizations.
Ardenno's Town Hall provides the ability to display file and content relationships in a multi-dimensional visual display. Town Hall uses purpose-built algorithms to logically structure and present content based on relevancy and fully leverages the Ardenno Relevancy Heat Index™ for each file within Ardenno's Collaboration Center product. This provides researchers with unparalleled information access and sharing to aid knowledge collaboration.
"Town Hall provides a game changing collaboration visualization paradigm for research and development. The ability to graphically display related files in a multi-dimensional presentation and visually understand file and content relevancy will greatly aid research," said Joe Peden, President, Ardenno Solutions. "Leveraging and learning from existing related observations has always been a goal. Ardenno's Collaboration Center with Town Hall is an easy to implement solution that provides value almost immediately."
Leveraging the Ardenno Relevancy Heat Index™
Town Hall dynamically displays a file's "Heat Index" from the Ardenno Collaboration Center's indexed repository. As individual files and their associated taxonomies and industry-specific ontologies are increasingly leveraged and included in an Ardenno Knowledge Bag™—thus showing their growing importance to others within their knowledge community —a file increases its relevancy rating and is displayed in Ardenno's Collaboration Center and Town Hall with a quantitative ranking and displays a specific Heat Index color scheme to denote its quintile ranking.
Ardenno Collaboration Center
Ardenno's Collaboration Center solution addresses common weaknesses in a multitude of research laboratories--- around the globe. Research organizations have a common thread of pain and inefficiencies without regard for their research focus. Researchers today are generating an accelerating amount of data and are unable to maximize its value across their various research teams. The inability to share knowledge and learn from other related or useful observations in a timely manner continues to waste expensive resources and time. Today's automated hierarchical storage and compliance systems are only making the "My Data" syndrome actually worse, not better. There is a better way to help make knowledge workers more knowledgeable, and leverage existing infrastructure investments. Ardenno's Collaboration Center solution will help disparate research teams perform smarter, and to enable them to better leverage their complimentary knowledge community.
