Relevant Data Corp www.relevantdata.com has named George Schussel to the position of Senior Advisor, Strategic Planning. He is a renowned expert in database computing architecture, the Internet, and information management.

According to Marshall Sterman, Chairman and CEO, "Dr. Schussel brings a unique perspective to our new approach to real-time predictive analytics, and will be instrumental in developing customer-centric strategies to maximize today's computing power and intuitive software."

Schussel added, "Our customers are looking for relevant answers rather than mountains of mostly irrelevant information. We are building user-friendly tools that will bridge between real-time analytics and offer suggestions to real-time action that will easily fit into a decision maker's activities. Relevant Data's technology understands the relational importance of information and its correlation to past events and the software focuses on correlating and analyzing the data that is constantly becoming available rather than just collecting it."

"Our first product announcements will be coming within a matter of weeks. The initial expert domain will be that of stock pricing and its correlations with unstructured web based data. This first product, tentatively named 'Sigmund,' will offer direct recommendations on equity investments. We're excited about how quickly this will offer traders an edge."
