About the author

I’m having trouble with static pages in WordPress right now, so I’ll just do the “About” pages for the blog inline as posts.

About the author

Curt A. Monash, Ph.D., has been a top-level software industry analyst and participant since 1981, and has been involved in text technologies ever since he helped raise money for Artificial Intelligence Corporation in 1983. Since the mid-1990s he has done extensive research on text search, some of which appeared in The Spider’s Apprentice, which for many years was an industry-leading guide to search engine use and understanding. He was a panelist at the inaugural Text Mining Summit in 2005.

Fuller biographical information about Curt can be found on the “About” page for the Monash Report and at Curt’s Monash Information Services bio page; software industry leaders’ views of Curt may be seen on the Monash Information Services testimonials page. (Apologetic note: Those pages not excepted, the Monash Information Services site hasn’t been updated for a while, and needs a bit of freshening.)

Curt’s views may also be found in the Monash Report (analysis of software and related industries), Software Memories (personal reminiscences and other historical notes about the last three decades or so of the software and internet industries), and DBMS2 (covering developments in enterprise database management and XML-based SOAs).

Curt’s primary email address follows the template FirstnameLastname@Lastname.com, although disguising it that way is tantamount to closing the pantry door after the spam has already gotten in. Thus, please put a distinctive title on your email, so that your email won’t mistakenly be thrown out with the bad stuff. Mentioning “Text Technologies” would be one excellent idea.

    You should have a look at Nstein Technologies. A major player in the text mining field that is not in your list.

    Great site by the way. Happy new year to you.
