20 September 2005RAND Corporation Provides Faster Discovery to Site Visitors with Vivisimo VelocityPittsburgh, PA—Vivisimo (www.vivisimo.com), the creator of innovative software to access and cluster the world's information for better search and discovery, today announced that the RAND Corporation (www.rand.org) has deployed the Vivisimo Velocity enterprise search suite to provide visitors to RAND's corporate Web site with a superior way to search and discover information. "The RAND site offers visitors an abundance of research and information, but this sheer volume often made search results from conventional systems seem overwhelming," said Neal Sofge, Web technical manager for RAND. "The clustering concept gives visitors to complex sites a better chance of zeroing in on exactly what they're looking for, based on their own knowledge patterns and approaches." The RAND Corporation is a nonprofit research organization providing objective analysis and effective solutions that address the challenges facing the public and private sectors around the world. RAND conducts research on important and complicated problems facing its clients in various areas, such as business, education, health, law and science.
