Subject: Intercon introduces DynaSQL, dramatically improving access to information

JERUSALEM, ISRAEL - Feb 9, 2004 - Intercon released DynaSQL, a Non-Hierarchical data indexing technology, for free public review.

Non-Hierarchical access to information is fundamentally different from currently applied access methods. Current Hierarchical access requires entry of search-key sequentially; single missing, transposed or wrong character result in missed record. Non-Hierarchical data-access reduces data-entry restrictions.

Amazing, yet simple example for Non-hierarchical access is a search by ZIP code, instantly retrieving records, ranked and sorted by spatial proximity.

"DynaSQL technology will improve Systems' user interfaces," predicts Shatz, Intercon's CTO, "users exposed to simpler and more intuitive interfaces will refuse to turn back."

Intercon Systems, a closely held Israeli company, provides US' Pharmaceuticals companies with Business Intelligence services. Among Intercon's clients were McKesson, Bristol Mayer Squeeb, GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis, Aventis, Rite Aid and others. "Processing the world's large databases confronted Intercon with the limits of 'mainstream' database technology," explains Shatz. "Intercon had to develop its own robust technologies to meet the challenge."

Speaking from Intercon's Technology Center - overlooking historical Jerusalem, Shatz continues: "Recently, Intercon decided to apply its proprietary technologies to empower standard, 'everyday' application. Data Cleansing, Data Refining, record Matching, De-duplication, Information Retrieval, Data Mining and Graphical Statistical Analysis - are methodologies we made available to Windows Desktop users, within single integrated system - DataSet V."

To introduce and publicly promote some of its technologies, Intercon posted DataSet V Beta, free, for public preview and experimentation, downloadable from Intercon's web site at www.ds-dataset.com

"Since January 2004, more than ten thousand DataSet V copies were downloaded," accounts Shatz, "mainly by researchers and students in Academic institutions. The general public and Corporate IT are expected to follow soon."
