IBM recently issued a new type of search engine, dubbed UIMA for Unstructured Information Management Architecture, with which they hope to dominate the third-generation search engine market, reported yesterday's Oriental Morning Post.
Statistics by the International Data Corporation show that the search engine market for enterprises in 2003 generated US$620 million, up by 20%.   The massive commercial potential in this market has not only created "Google", a global miracle,  but has attracted Microsoft and Yahoo as well.
Jennifer, general manager with the IBM information management group, claims that their new system is able to decode the underlying significance of messages in whatever forms, including video, picture or mail.  "We plan to promote another new search engine within two years," she added.
However, "Suggest", the latest search technology developed by Google, and a desktop seach engine by Microsoft will be the most competitive rivals for IBM.
