Abstract
The present invention provides a system and method for information and data aggregation and analysis which provides risk managers, benefits managers, brokers, insurers and other insurance professional to have access to information resources, knowledge management tools, and powerful analytical models needed to increase their value and productivity. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, the system and method provided is designed for information and data aggregation that allows for the compilation of data for mining and categorization by a knowledge management system, which stores all retrieved information in accordance with categories provided by a categorization engine referred to as a Taxonomy module. A contextualization module is configured to retrieve relevant information, based on various factors, including the user'"'"'s profile, and the user'"'"'s particular task. The system dynamically provides relevant information as the user interacts and conducts various tasks. The stored information is analyzed by a concept clustering module, so that various concepts relating to a particular topic can be uncovered and stored. In accordance with another embodiment of the invention, the system provides for various analytical tools that allow users to carry on with highly complex analysis of insurance related topics. The range of available analytical tool dynamically varies based on the user'"'"'s needs and research topics. In accordance with yet another embodiment of the invention, the system provides for a unique interactive workspace that combines the features explained above in a logical manner. To this end, the system interface provides for various job templates, so as to enable the user'"'"'s to carry various projects by a template driven task assignments. As the user navigates through the workspace, the range of available information to the user changes, based on the user'"'"'s profile and navigation pattern.
