IBM says it has devised a new method for searching email databases, in what it says is a more relevant and accurate search system.
Developed in its research laboratories, IBM says its new software, called IBM OmniFind Personal Email Search (IOPES), is a step forward in search technology.
By using advanced algorithms which are able to interpret incomplete search entries, as well as generate information such as phone numbers, people, documents and presentations, IBM says it has been able to improve the ability to sift through emails to find the right result.
"With gigabytes of email storage readily available to nearly everyone, email has evolved from a simple communication tool into a personal database where we retain vast amounts of valuable information," said Douglas Wilson, engineer and chief technology officer of Lotus.
"We continue to deliver better tools to speed and improve personal mailbox search, and OmniFind Personal Email Search illustrates how IBM's advanced technology delivers the ability to quickly and easily access the precise information we need, exactly when we need it."
IOPES was the result of work at IBM's labs across the world, with centres in California, Haifa and Delhi playing their part.
