The present invention is a method of organizing and
processing data in a
distributed computing system. The invention is also implemented as a
computer program on a computer medium and as a distributed computer
system.
Software modules can be configured as hardware. The method and
system organizes select content which is important to an enterprise operating said
distributed computing system. The select content is represented by one or more predetermined words, characters, images, data elements or
data objects. The computing system has a plurality of select content data stores for respective ones of a plurality of enterprise designated categorical filters which include content-based filters, contextual filters and taxonomic classification filters, all operatively coupled over a communications network. A
data input is processed through at least one activated categorical filter to obtain select content, and contextually associated select content and taxonomically associated select content as aggregated select content. The aggregated select content is stored in the corresponding select content
data store. A data process from the group of data processes including a copy process, a data extract process, a
data archive process, a data distribution process and a data destruction process is associated with the activated categorical filter and the method and system applies the associated data process to a further
data input based upon a result of that further data being processed by the activated categorical filter utilizing the aggregated select content data.
