IMC and Empolis join forces for the SABINE research project

(PresseBox) (Saarbrücken / Kaiserslautern, Germany, )
IMC AG and Empolis GmbH will be working together on the award-winning research project SABINE from now on. The goal of SABINE is to strengthen employee skill profiles by offering customised training, continuing education and job opportunities. The project was awarded to IMC and the University of Saarland at the THESEUS SME 2009 (small and midsize enterprises) technology competition in March. Empolis will bring its expertise in the field of information management to the project.

SABINE (“semantic support services for professional integration and personal skills development”) is an instrument for the development of Web technologies at the points of contact between placement services, recruiting, skills management, learning, and social networks. These Internet-based semantic support services search, filter, assess, and connect potential jobs, effective training and continuing education opportunities, ideally suited learning content, professional integration opportunities, and people.

SABINE will in the future benefit from the functionalities of the Empolis open source platform SMILA (Semantic Information Logistics Architecture). SMILA is an official open source project of the Eclipse Foundation, an international association of companies, research institutions, and private users, who jointly develop open and standardised platforms. SMILA is an extensible system for processing unstructured company information (emails, documents, pictures). It provides essential infrastructure components, infrastructure services, and comprehensive additional components such as interfaces for common data sources. On this basis, developers can focus on creating high-quality solutions, such as for example semantic searches or information extractions. The additional integration of the Empolis state-of-the-art search technology “Intelligent Search” into SABINE greatly improves search functionality of the service and thus user benefit.

“I’m looking forward to further developing this project on the basis of SMILA after our success at the THESEUS SME competition. The integration of the ‘Intelligent Search’ by Empolis will significantly advance the SABINE project”, says IMC Board Member Dr. Volker Zimmermann.
