The major component of BI are data ware house and marts, predictive analysis, data mining,
data visualization software and a business performance management system.
Characteristic and Objectives of Data Mining:
Data mining techniques are well suited to analyze financial time series data to find patterns,
detect anomalies and outliers recognize situation of chance and risk etc. Data mining tools are
interactive, visual and understandable and work directly on the data warehouse of the
organization.
Data Mining Applications:
There are some applications whose intend is to identify the business opportunity in order to
create a sustainable competitive advantage. Examples of such applications are retailing and
sales, banking, manufacturing and production, healthcare, broadcasting and marketing.
ISs have grown to support all managerial roles, particularly decisional role. It helps in the
identification of problem and opportunity and in the decision of what to do about them. The
two broad decision categories are problem solving and opportunity exploiting.
The need for IT support in managerial decision is basically to overcome certain issues such as
Decision making process consist of four systematic phases Intelligence, Design, Choice and
Implementation. There is a continuous flow of information from intelligent to design to
choice but at any time there may be a return of information to a prior phase. This decision
model is a simplified representation or abstraction of reality. The benefits of modeling in
decision making are as follows:
Makes a system flexible and adaptable to changing condition and to the varying
requirement of different decision making situation
It allows user to enter their own data and to view how system will behave under
varying circumstances
It provide better understanding of sensitivity analysis model
Benefits of DSS:
1. Examine numerous alternative very quickly
2. Support forecasting
3. Provide a systematic risk analysis
The DSS components are all softwares, they run on standard hardware and they can be
facilitated by additional software. One of the most popular tools for decision support is
simulation.
GDSS (Group DSS) is an interactive computer based system that facilitates the solution of
semi structure and unstructured problems when made by a group of decision maker by
concentrating on the process and procedure.
Automated Decision Support (ADS)
These systems are rule based system that automatically provides solution to repetitive
managerial problems. ADSs are closely related to BI and business analytics.
Business analytic models may be used to create and operate the business rules
Business rule can be used to trigger the automatic decision in BI application
Rapidly business rules to automate decision makers and deploy them into almost any
operating environment
Inject predictive analytics into rule based application
Combined business rules, predictive models and optimization strategy
