The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) has announced its decision to work with its ePublishing partner, HighWire Press, and US-based semantic content enrichment solutions provider TEMIS to offer a new, integrated, semantically fueled digital publishing programme.
AAAS is the publisher of the renowned scientific journal Science. The goal of this strategic project is an enhanced online destination incorporating the content of the Science family of websites, and a number of other digital assets under the AAAS umbrella. The AAAS project is part of a larger undertaking touching many areas of AAAS' business, including the broad rubric of content enrichment.
TEMIS provides an enterprise-wide solution in content enrichment that can be extended to a variety of digital assets. The company's solution for Semantic Content Enrichment, Luxid, will play a pivotal role in AAAS's plans to better align advertising and marketing activities with its editorial products, improve linkage of a variety of content, enhance search across its daily workflow and archives, and ultimately drive membership and revenues. Luxid automates the semantic enrichment of unstructured content, producing metadata that help search engines return more relevant results. It creates 'facets' which are used to further explore the search engine's results. Luxid also connects content, creating a network of semantic ties between documents. This enables the suggesting of related and similar documents, furthering the process of knowledge recommendation.
HighWire has offered semantically-driven features and services for publishers for over 10 years. HighWire facilitates discoverability both through their long-standing, custom taxonomic and development efforts and through the integration of third party solutions, such as TEMIS.
