Join us for a conversation and presentation with Mr. Glenn House as he describes the use cases and applications for 2Is' Common Lisp based products.
 2Is designs and develops logistics decision support and Independent Verification and Validation enterprise systems that have demonstrated tens of millions of dollars in reduced total cost of inventory ownership for the military and OEM supply chain. 2Is applications have been proven under multiple DOD Test and Evaluation contracts. 2Is applications are provided to external customers in a Software as a Service (SaaS) model and are served securely over the Internet. The development process is monitored by internal Quality Assurance staff and externally registered and audited to CMMI Level 3 standards.
Glenn House has successfully architected, designed and implemented numerous enterprise software systems during his 30 year career. Mr. House has repeatedly delivered success as a CEO of several entrepreneurial ventures and has vast expertise in software strategies, deal development, scaling for growth, and raising capital.

Querying a Trillion Triples - Semantic Technologies Conference
June 5-9 in San Francisco, CA.
 A complex graph database query is a collection of two types of primitive operations: primitives that generate possible solutions and primitives that constrain those solutions by rejecting solutions that are invalid. One approach to a distributed query engine is running each primitive operation in its own process and creating a graph of these processes by linking them together with network streams.
Solutions flow from process to process, some primitives increasing the solution set and some reducing the solution set. Other processes in the graph perform operations on the solution stream such as sorting values or distributing values to database servers holding the best index for the next step. All processes potentially running at the same time if they have work to do. Out of the last process in the graph comes the solution to the query. The concepts we discuss work for SPARQL, Prolog, Common Logic and Social Network Analysis.
Attend SemTech to hear Jans Aasman give this talk. Also, Bill Guinn of Amdocs will be giving a talk on "The Next Generation Consumer Business - Semantically Enabled for Real-Time Intelligence"
