SYSTAP has core competencies in Systems, Technologies, and Applications.

Services work includes helping to support automated ingest systems and workflows for structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data, dynamic federation of disparate data sets, and user interface technologies for finding patterns in federated data as well as managing federation policies and editing or annotating federated data.

Current open-source work includes development of the bigdata® scale-out computing platform and its application in building a fast, scalable RDF store with RDFS and OWL reasoning.

SYSTAP can provide solutions addressing mission-critical problems in the domain of information sharing, semantics-based federation of disparate data sources across trust boundaries, difficult information modeling problems, scalable application of semantics to structured data, and technology assessment, especially emerging technology and innovative research.

SYSTAP has technical expertise in end-to-end life cycle management of custom software projects, design and implementation of small, medium, or large scale custom system architectures, and systems integration, with specific focus areas including Semantic Web technologies and advanced information architectures, object databases and frameworks, rules-based reasoning, structured data, web services, and user-interfaces in support of these technologies.

SYSTAP software development philosophies are based on the Extreme Programming and Agile Development philosophies: we employ test-first design strategies, we delivery early and often, and we believe in leveraging and contributing to the open-source community.

SYSTAP can partner with other small business or larger firms to bring together the right set of skills for each problem.
