WILLIAMSPORT, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE via COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--March 7, 2006--Students, faculty and researchers at higher education institutions can now tap the full power of Discovery Machine software through the company's new Initiatives in Education discount program. This special pricing makes it easy and affordable to use the Discovery Machine Inc. (DMI) portfolio of knowledge capture software. "Colleges and universities are challenged to provide students and faculty with the most advanced, leading-edge technology at the same time that budgets are stretched nearly to their limits. Discovery Machine is proud to offer exceptional discounts at such a critical time," said DMI's Chief Technology Officer, Todd W. Griffith.
In the past, artificial intelligence and knowledge-capture tools have been too cumbersome and expensive to be practical for colleges and universities. But Discovery Machine enables students and faculty to build their own executable models, doing away with long development cycles or time-consuming training. Discovery Machine's proven ability to quickly and affordably capture, share and execute problem-solving strategies has resulted in 100-fold increases in productivity. The software has enabled experts in national defense, homeland security, aerospace and life sciences to leverage knowledge in a manner never before achievable.
"The unique capabilities of Discovery Machine technology provide institutions with an arsenal of powerful new tools, whether the application is in aerospace, genetics, biomedical research, supply chain management, finance or any of hundreds of disciplines," Griffith said. "In the computer science arena, Discovery Machine technology can be an important component of programming concepts education, even for non-computer science majors."
"Knowledge capture and artificial intelligence are already transforming business, scientific research, and national defense. Students and faculty who are highly proficient in these skills are set to experience added measures of success in their chosen fields,"
Griffith said.
Initiatives in Education licenses for Discovery Machine software are $169.95, a discount of over 75% off the Professional Edition price, and are available by contacting [email protected]. Discovery Machine's extremely powerful language represents and simulates expertise in a natural way. Additional functions make it easier to refine and deploy simulations making it a clear choice over current scripting languages such as Lisp, Perl, Java Script, and Python.
"We don't really know the limits of the Discovery Machine portfolio--if limits exist," Griffith noted. "We fully expect that students, faculty and researchers using Discovery Machine will produce some of the most imaginative knowledge definitions and real-world knowledge capture ever conceived."
Discovery Machine's breakthrough software has been proven in the defense, aerospace, and biomedical research arenas. The company has partnered with the Office of Naval Research (ONR), the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the National Aeronautics and Space Agency (NASA), Lockheed Martin Advanced Technology Laboratories, Northrop Grumman Newport News, Alion Science and Technology-BMH Operation and Global InfoTek Inc. "These are some of the world's most demanding partners," Griffith observed. "Colleges and universities will benefit from the rigorous development and validation requirements DMI has met."
Discovery Machine software works on Microsoft and Linux systems and soon will be available for Macintosh systems. A plug-in is available for BIOSPICE and is under construction for Eclipse.
