Paper Abstract:
|
Large companies and organizations periodically feed their information systems with large data flows. Apart from the
classical operational activities, they are called to prepare aggregated reports to send to institutions and rating agencies.
Unfortunately, organizations typically suffer for the lack of integrated data and for the lack of a standard data dictionary.
The presented approach aims to tackle such a problem by building a bridge between employees that need to specify how
to generate reports (on the basis of concepts and terms typical of the application domain) and the information system that
stores the data to query and aggregate in order to automatically produce reports. The implemented framework, RADAR
(Rich Advanced Design Approach for Reporting), moves from the notion of Operational Data Store, and it is posed in the
middle between an ontology (of concepts and terms) and the actual operational (and relational) schema of source data.
Then, in the defined schema allows for giving a high-level view of such source data, based on concepts described in the
ontology for a specific application domain. |
