Traditional enterprise data warehouse, an integral part of decision support systems (DSS), provides a variety of granularity data to satisfy requirements of different users. It is estimated that about 80% of the information stored in data warehouse is geo-spatial related. However, traditional data warehouse cannot efficiently process spatial data. With the increasing amount of spatial data stor...

the bi-objective warehouse problem in a crisp environment is often not eective in dealing with the imprecision or vagueness in the values of the problem parameters. to deal with such situations, several researchers have proposed that the parameters be represented as fuzzy numbers. we describe a new algorithm for fuzzy bi-objective warehouse problem using a ranking function followed by an applic...

DEFINITION Extraction, Transformation, and Loading (ETL) processes are responsible for the operations taking place in the back stage of a data warehouse architecture. In a high level description of an ETL process, first, the data are extracted from the source data stores that can be On-Line Transaction Processing (OLTP) or legacy systems, files under any format, web pages, various kinds of docu...

The US Food and Drug Administration recommends submission of digital electrocardiograms in the standard HL7 XML format into the electrocardiogram warehouse to support preapproval review of new drug applications. The Food and Drug Administration scrutinizes electrocardiogram quality by viewing the annotated waveforms and scoring electrocardiogram quality by the warehouse algorithms. Part of the ...

The concept of a generalized quantiier of a given similarity type was deened in Lin66]. Our main result says that on nite structures diierent similarity types give rise to diierent classes of generalized quantiiers. More exactly, for every similarity type t there is a generalized quantiier of type t which is not deenable in the extension of rst order logic by all generalized quantiiers of type ...

To appreciate the wealth of information a data warehouse has to offer, you need to understand how to communicate with it. Information is typically accessed using an SQL query. The statement responsible for querying the many tables and returning the requested results in a data warehouse environment is the SELECT statement. It is an indispensable piece of the data retrieval process. This paper lo...

This paper describes how a performance data warehouse can be used to facilitate business process improvement that is based on holistic performance measurement. The feasibility study shows how management and analysis of performance data can be facilitated by a data warehouse approach. It is argued that many of the shortcomings of traditional measurement systems can be overcome with this performa...

This paper addresses issues related to Knowledge Management in the context of heterogeneous data warehouse environments. The traditional notion of data warehouse is evolving into a federated warehouse augmented by a knowledge repository, together with a set of processes and services to support enterprise knowledge creation, refinement, indexing, dissemination and evolution.
