Velocity for Life Sciences (VLS)
http://vivisimo.com/html/bio

Vivisimo, the creator of innovative clustering software for better search and discovery, introduced the Velocity for Life Sciences (VLS) search and discovery platform that includes meta-alerts, collaboration, document delivery and advanced reporting capabilities for improved knowledge sharing among functional groups across an enterprise. Velocity for Life Sciences 4.2 is the industry's first rapid-deployment, highly customizable enterprise-search platform that combines dynamic clustering, search and meta search into one solution providing a single point of access for all information sources - internal and external. The VLS platform is built on the widely deployed Vivisimo software and includes the company's award-winning Clustering Engine. Velocity for Life Sciences features also include:

-- Meta Alerts: Velocity allows users to create alerts from multiple information sources from a single point of access. Users no longer need to access each source individually; instead, they can initiate and receive alerts from several sources in one combined email. Alerts can be initiated simply by clicking on a result or by adding them through user profiles.

-- Collaboration and Exporting: With a simple click, Velocity users can export results into Endnote, Procite, Reference Manager, Documentum eRooms, or email reports in HTML or plain text format. It can also save reports as text, HTML or XML, making it easy to share, collaborate and preserve searches. Velocity allows users to save their searches and return to the results at a later time in order to better meet the work habits of individual users.

-- Customizable Reports: Velocity's comprehensive reporting feature is entirely customizable and enables administrators to ask and answer critical business questions. For example, administrators can learn what "resources" (journals, feeds, etc.) are actually used and which should continue to be licensed. Administrators can also learn what keywords or phrases are found through the search application, and how and with what frequency users reformulate their queries.

-- Full-Text Document Delivery: Velocity has interfaces with leading document delivery organizations such as Infotrieve. Now through a single solution, Velocity users can access full-text documents with the advantages of third-party providers that maintain document ordering quotas for document cost control.

-- LinkOut: Velocity incorporates the Entrez LinkOut feature providing full-text access to journals and databases that have been licensed by the organization.

-- Document-Level Security: Velocity document-level security provides administrators complete control over access to individual documents or groups of documents. It allows only authorized users access to search results involving sensitive information.
