FAST Introduces ProPublish Solution

With FAST ProPublish, publishers can provide researchers with a Web-based interface designed specifically to be easy-to-use, yet powerful. This interface, combined with the product's contextual navigation and relevancy tuning, allows business users to rapidly find the right information. FAST says the out-of-the-box application framework, templates, and user interface components delivered in FAST ProPublish make it easy to construct powerful researcher-centric user interfaces.

Capabilities specifically designed for the business and production managers within publishing groups include the FAST Production Manager, a graphical tool that allows publishers to perform live updates on their online and offline published content, protect it from unauthorized use, and manage content processing, subscriptions, and site structure. The product's modular Content Processing Pipeline offers stages for automated entity extraction, linguistic analysis, and content classification, all designed to reduce the production costs associated with creating publications.
