In contrast to other major industry events, Search Solutions aims to be highly interactive and collegial, with attendance limited to 60 delegates. The high quality technical programme includes presentations, panels and case studies in which delegates present and share opinions, insight and expertise. As in previous years we expect a good mix of research students, academics, practicioners and developers to attend. It should be particularly appealing to anybody interested in natural language processing (NLP), information retrieval (IR) and knowledge management (KM) because 'Search Solutions 2010' showcases how these normally fairly separate communities can work together to move the state of the art in search technology forward. We will have talks from the following speakers: Behshad Behzadi, Google: 'Web Search Freshness' Vishwa Vinay, Microsoft: 'Click Evidence - Signals and Tasks' Greg Lindahl, Blekko: 'Instant Indexing' Nick Patience, 451 Group: 'The Trends Shaping the Future of Enterprise Search 2010-2013'' Dusan Rnic, Endeca: ''Enterprise Search and its Evolution'' Chirag Gandhi, mPhasis: ''I Still Haven't Found What I am Looking for...''
