“We’re excited that the MIT Indian
Business Club has chosen to acknowledge
one of our co-founders for the
innovative concepts around transforming
unstructured content into XML,” said
Kedron Wolcott, Co-founder and VP
Engineering for CambridgeDocs.
“These innovations led to the formation
of CambridgeDocs and to the architecture
for our entire xDoc product line.”
The Global
Indus Technovator awards (http://technovators.mit.edu)
were established by the Indian Business
Club @ Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT) in 2003, in order to
increase awareness about the
technological contributions of young
South Asians across the globe. This
initiative hopes to inculcate a culture
of science and technology, and provide
role models for the South Asian youth.
This year’s
awards received over 100 nominations
from around the world for innovative
work at the forefront of biotechnology,
healthcare, materials and devices,
information technology, and grassroots
technology; an upper age limit of 40 was
one of the criteria for nominations. The
entries were screened by a committee
consisting of doctoral students at MIT
and technologists and professionals in
the Boston, MA area, and
10 awardees
were chosen.
About CambridgeDocs
CambridgeDocs is a leader in the
emerging market for XML-based content
integration. This market deals with
the integration of legacy content with
new XML-based systems (e.g. Content
Management, Enterprise Information
Portals, EAI, and Web Services) and
standards (e.g. DocBook, DITA, HRXML,
RIXML, FPML, NewsML, or any custom XML
schema/DTD’s, etc.).
Towards this end, CambridgeDocs provides
a technology platform & services for
taking existing unstructured and
semi-structured internal and external
content (e.g. MS Word, HTML, PDF, Quark,
etc.), and transforming it into
"meaningful XML". Once transformed, the
content can be made available for
delivery through XML-based Web Services,
classified and indexed within Enterprise
Information Portals, and aggregated,
assembled and published in multiple
different formats including support for
wireless and mobile devices.
