SAN MATEO, Calif. -- Mark Logic Corporation, provider of the industry's leading XML content server, today announced that it has been named to KMWorld magazine's "100 Companies that Matter in Knowledge Management" for 2005. KMWorld is the leading information provider serving the Knowledge Management systems market, informing subscribers about the components, processes, and success stories that improve business performance.

"In the year ahead, we see Mark Logic continuing to prove the value of sound knowledge management practices -- its XML content server plays a prominent role in enabling companies to query, manipulate, and render XML content," said Hugh McKellar, editor-in-chief of KMWorld. "The list was conceived as a way to identify some of the organizations leading the way in the knowledge economy and to encourage a broader discussion of knowledge management. Criteria for inclusion varies, but each company has either helped to create a market, redefine one or enhance one -- and they all share one thing: velocity of innovation."

KMWorld devised this list though a series of informal discussions with knowledge management practitioners, theorists, vendors, customers, analysts, and editors and is intended to generate interest and discussions about knowledge management tools and services.

"We are proud to be recognized by KMWorld, the leading voice for the knowledge management industry, as one of the select companies to watch in 2005," said Dave Kellogg, president and chief executive officer of Mark Logic Corporation. "Our XML content server provides an excellent underpinning for knowledge management applications. Knowledge management is about finding the right pieces of content and delivering them in the right context to the right user at the right time."

The complete list of "100 Companies that Matter in Knowledge Management" will be published in the March 2005 issue of KMWorld Magazine and will also be available online at http://www.kmworld.com/100.cfm
