The data warehouse is not a new practice in the IT world, all the domains which have data can make a decision system, data warehouse, to exploit well the generated knowledge we have to maintain the good conditions to have a good decision making. By the application of the best practice of ITIL, we limit the risks and the malfunction of a data warehouse, and by the addition of a layer which treat...

Warehouses are scientifically designed storage structures that protect the quantity and quality of stored products with necessary preservation methods. This study was conducted to assess growth performance warehouses, Negotiable Warehouse Receipt (NWR) electronic (e-NWR) in India. Percentage analysis indicated there is 102.42 per cent number Central Warehousing Corporation (CWC) warehouses aver...

Solving data quality problems is important for data warehouse construction and operation. This paper is based on developing a web log warehouse. It proposes a data quality problem methodology for data preprocessing within the log warehouse. It provides a hierarchical data warehouse architecture that is suitable for resource saving and ad hoc requirements. The data preprocessing is completed usi...

Using ProModel simulation language, a universal warehouse storage simulation model has been developed. Applications of the model have been executed with success to analyze the storage capacity and rack efficiency of a medium volume, low stock-keeping unit (SKU) warehouse and a medium volume, large SKU warehouse. The model is scaleable and can be modified to simulate any warehouse configuration,...

Data warehouse projects bring together different communities of practice, with the primary objective of producing one body of information which is capable of comparative advantages in business analysis. Due to the number of involved communities and the complexity of their collaboration, data warehouse projects are costly. In this paper we give a closer look at communication problems on boundari...

We believe that, to manage Web data effectively, there is a need to build a data warehouse of Web data, i.e. a Web warehouse. In this paper, we focus on how to represent and store relevant hyperlinked Web documents effectively in a Web warehouse called WHOWEDA (WareHouse Of WEb DAta) for further querying and manipulation. We present a simple and general model for representing metadata, structur...

Data warehouse systems integrate data from heterogeneous sources. These sources are autonomous in nature and change independently of a data warehouse. Owing to changes in data sources, the content and the schema of a data warehouse may need to be changed for accurate decision making. Slowly changing dimensions and temporal data warehouses are the available solutions to manage changes in the con...

Warehouse is one of the important aspects of a company. Therefore, it is necessary to improve Warehouse Management System (WMS) to have a simple function that can determine the layout of the storage goods. In this paper we propose an improved warehouse layout method based on ant colony algorithm and backtracking algorithm. The method works on two steps. First, it generates a solutions parameter...

Defining data warehouse requirements is widely recognized as one of the most important steps in the larger data warehouse system development process. This paper examines the potential risks and pitfalls within the data warehouse requirement collection and definition process. A real scenario of a large-scale data warehouse implementation is given, and details of this project, which ultimately fa...
