CAMBRIDGE, England and SAN FRANCISCO, May 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that His Royal Highness, Prince Andrew, the Duke of York will be visiting its European headquarters in the Cambridge Business Park. During his visit today His Royal Highness will learn about Autonomy's unparalleled journey from the engineering research labs of Cambridge University a little over a decade ago to become the largest software company in the UK, a FTSE 100 company and the winner of two Queen's Awards for Enterprise in the Innovation and International Trade categories. In addition to introductions from Autonomy's senior management executive team, His Royal Highness the Duke of York will meet Autonomy employees from a range of departments including Autonomy's award-wining Research & Development team which leads the world in meaning-based software technology solutions.

Autonomy was founded on a simple yet powerful premise: enabling computers to detect patterns in information the way humans do in order to dramatically change the way in which we interact with information. Autonomy's cornerstone technology, the Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), is able to form an understanding of all data, including structured, semi-structured and unstructured content, and automatically process it. Thanks to its ground-breaking pattern-recognition capabilities, IDOL is universally recognized for its ability to penetrate all types of information silos, enabling organizations to derive maximum value from their corporate assets and automate a raft of operations for business gain and risk mitigation.

"We are honored to welcome His Royal Highness the Duke of York in our European headquarters in the Cambridge Business Park," said Dr Mike Lynch, Founder and CEO of Autonomy. "The truly talented professionals the Duke of York will meet today are behind an ever growing number of world-first solutions which have revolutionized the IT industry. Despite our global penetration and offices in over 40 countries around the world, our Cambridge headquarters still host Autonomy's largest R&D department in the world. We are proud of Autonomy's British origins and we are delighted to see our success recognized by the Duke of York."
