About this textbook
- First concise and comprehensive introduction to business intelligence (BI)
- Combines traditional BI technologies with new topics like semantic databases, social network analysis, and cloud computing
- Contributions conjointly written by leading academic researchers and industrial developers, striving for both high relevance and real-world applicability
The lectures held at the First European Business Intelligence Summer School (eBISS), which are presented here in an extended and refined format, cover not only established BI technologies like data warehouses, OLAP query processing, or performance issues, but extend into new aspects that are important in this new environment and for novel applications, e.g., semantic technologies, social network analysis and graphs, services, large-scale management, or collaborative decision making.
Combining papers by leading researchers in the field, this volume will equip the reader with the state-of-the-art background necessary for inventing the future of BI. It will also provide the reader with an excellent basis and many pointers for further research in this growing field.
