LANSA Orchestrates Success for Business Automation
Database Trends and Applications Magazine
Two years ago, after noticing an increasing need for non-technical users to perform business process automation tasks, LANSA decided a new solution that would offer sophisticated data integration capabilities through an easy-to-use visual interface, and would not require the user to write any code, was necessary. That solution, LANSA Composer, which shipped to customers in October 2007, is built around the visual interface and behind-the-scenes code generation capabilities of MapForce, a graphical mapping, conversion and integration tool from Altova.

Semantic Web Tools Emerge
Redmond Developer News
The Semantic Web is not a technology per se, but rather a combination of a philosophy, design principles and supporting technologies that make electronic information readable by machines and humans alike. The result: an online environment where software and systems can efficiently find and process online information without human intervention.
“For the most part, the Semantic Web community hasn't done a lot to get things to a practical state for mainstream programmers,” admits Tauberer, who wrote SemWeb to support his own research. “However, we're finally starting to see some other tools emerge.”
Some of those other tools include the Windows-based Altova SemanticWorks product, which allows developers to graphically design RDF instance documents, RDF Schema vocabularies and Web Ontology Language (OWL) ontologies, then output them in either RDF/XML or N-Triples formats.

Desmond File: Altova's Alexander Falk Discusses OOXML and ODF
Redmond Developer News
Last week, I wrote about the recent Burton Group report that provided an overview of the Office Open XML (OOXML) and OpenDocument Format (ODF) file format specifications. The report, which is aimed at an enterprise readership, concludes that OOXML enjoys a number of critical advantages over ODF, in large part because it maps aggressively to the existing features and functions provided by current and past versions of Microsoft Office. You can find a synopsis of the report here.
One familiar name that came up in the course of talking to Burton Group Research Director Peter O'Kelly about the report he authored was that of Alexander Falk. Falk is CEO of Altova, a leading provider of XML tools and utilities. I had spoken with Falk several months ago in the course of reporting an earlier story for RDN, and figured now was probably a good time to catch up with him again.
Here's a quick Q&A that offers Falk's informed takes on the benefits of the XML transition, prospects for ODF going forward and why it may already be entirely too late to stop Microsoft's OOXML spec.
