World Wide Web
Internet is
World Wide Data Storage.
Internet is huge.
Internet becomes larger and larger day after day.
![Page 3: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Internet contains billions of data units
However, these data units combine a heap of
unstructured information. An Internet user
feels quite lonely facing the problem of
finding an answer to his question. At that
point he is absolutely sure, that the answer
exists.
So, the user meets the “problem of
understanding” that is quite usual for
Internet.
![Page 4: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
We know how to solve the problem
Our approach is the only realistic way to find the answer to any question of any Internet-user
![Page 5: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Our method overcomes all existing approaches
Existing approaches to solve the
problem of understanding inside
Internet are based on natural language
request recognition and focus on finding
the exact meaning of the question.
We focus on finding the exact answer to
the question.
![Page 6: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Natural language request recognition is not enough and it is
even not necessary
Having understood the question, one
needs to find the answer.
In reality Internet knowledge is the
aggregated knowledge of all Internet users.
Our method is based on collecting,
processing and storing of this aggregated
knowledge
![Page 7: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
SmartNet is an ASP-module to be added to any informational system that deals with
structured data
“Structured data” means information on some objects, each of them having a number of attributes. There is a great number of examples: books in the library, goods at the store, products at the commodity exchange, securities at the stock exchange, air flight tickets, data in any structured informational resources (e.g. Internet sites about pet breeds, sports, etc.).
![Page 8: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
User has an ability to build Smart Query for the information he is
interested in:
![Page 9: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
After creating the query user asks the Net:
![Page 10: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The user’s question could be poorly defined or even formulated in a natural language:
![Page 11: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
All the questions are automatically transferred to the Expert’s Floor:
![Page 12: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
At this floor all the users that had registered as experts can give their opinion on the issue:
![Page 13: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
User gets the opinion of other Net users on the item he is interested in:
![Page 14: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Easily managed
SmartNet is easy to use and it is
comfortably managed by the
special Remote Control
![Page 15: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
First main objective of SmartNet use:
To find an answer to an uncertain question.
There could be a number of answers ofdifferent importance to the same question. User is free to make the final selection himself. This feature is of a special interest in regards to data which is being permanently renewed (e.g. “enough RAM for computer” is not a constant value. It changes approximately in one-two months). User receives the absolutely perfect and up-to-date answer to such questions.
![Page 16: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Second main objective of SmartNet use:
To store the answer(s) found.
The SmartNet dictionary is ever-growing. Next time the same question appears, the answer is ready instantly.
SmartNet provides the abilities to renew old, not up-to-date answers in a natural way.
![Page 17: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Third main objective of SmartNet use:
To define a fuzzy-logic request and to translate it into the search language of basic data storage.
A user makes his request in the most convenient way.
Moreover, he can formulate the request in a natural language, and SmartNet will work it out.
![Page 18: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Additional competitive advantages of SmartNet :
SmartNet has advanced means of statistical data gathering and storage for further analytical use.
SmartNet is user-friendly.
SmartNet has WAP-ready Web interface.
![Page 19: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Properly built machine works properly
Our method is based on
modern mathematics:
fuzzy algebra theory
![Page 20: Internet tool to find answers to poorly defined questions SmartNet © ITC Software, 2003 .](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032607/56649ec65503460f94bd2290/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
We used up-to-date software to build SmartNet:
SmartNet is developed with the
best and most proper software
instruments: Oracle 8i and JAVA.
Thus, SmartNet is efficient, reliable,
well scalable and absolutely
platform independent.

Prospects
We are ready to apply our fuzzy
requests recognition method to any
Internet task which meets the terms and
concepts of the “problem of
understanding”
