Closing The Gap

Since Lunh first used the term Business Intelligence (BI) in 1958, major transformations happened in the field of information systems and technologies, especially in the area of decision support systems. BI systems are widely used in organizations and their importance is recognized. These systems present themselves as essential parts of a complete knowledge of business and an irreplaceable tool in the support to decision making. The dissemination of data mining (DM) tools is increasing in the BI field, as well as the acknowledgment of the relevance of its usage in enterprise BI systems. BI tools are friendly, iterative, and interactive, allowing business users an easy access. The user can manipulate directly data, having the ability to extract all the value contained into that business data. Problems noted in the use of DM in the field of BI is related to the fact that DM models are complex in order to be directly manipulated by business users, not including BI tools. The nonexistence of BI tools allowing business users the direct manipulation of DM models was identified as the problem. More of these issues, possible solutions and conclusions are presented in this article.

Information systems are designed, implemented, and managed using abstractions layers to cope with the huge organizational complexity that is nowadays posed, and also to facilitate the discussion between the different stakeholders of an organization that have diverse perspectives and interpretations of it. Those discussions drive to the classical requirements elicitation stage that aims at identifying the best short-, mid-, or long-term models to view, understand, and operate the organization and to facilitate the forthcoming IS transformations. This chapter conceptualizes and identifies open research challenges in the scope of informed decision making applied to business processes execution environments. Control is used to cope the workarounds that occur while actors operate. A workaround occurs when an actor decides to adapt, improvise, or perform other changes to one or more aspects of an existing model. In some situations, a workaround could indicate new, and innovative, ways of actors performing their duties. It is not necessarily harmful for the organization.

Stability Concepts

Most solution concepts in collective decision making are defined assuming complete knowledge of individuals' preferences and of the mechanism used for aggregating them. This is often unpractical or unrealistic. Under incomplete knowledge, a solution advocated by many consists in quanrtifying over all completions of the incomplete preference profile (or all instantiations of the incompletely specified mechanism). Voting rules can be `modalized' this way (leading to the notions of possible and necessary winners), and also efficiency and fairness notions in fair division, stability concepts in coalition formation, and more. I give here a survey of works along this line.

Background: Requirement elicitation is the first step for any project. The available BI requirement elicitation approaches are focused more towards: the top pyramid of the management, less focus on the business aspect of an organization, historical in nature, emphasis on data mining and data warehousing aspects, no clear separation between requirements, and lack of proper linkage between the requirements.  The demand of BI shifts towards the operational front for last couple of years. The use of Operational BI is gaining more popularity among industry and business communities because of increased demand of real time BI.  It provides a powerful analysis of both operational and business information in current time for all levels of the users in the organization.Objective: In the modern business environment, the business operates on networks that demands multi-level decision-making capabilities as compared to the traditional business approaches. Operational BI is one of the business information systems that support the modern business environment and provides timely decision-making information to all the users in the organization. The requirement elicitation methodology for Operational BI system is found open for research. A new approach for requirement elicitation for an Operational BI system is presented in this paper, which highly suits to the organizations in the modern business environment.Methods: A top down technique is employed in the proposed requirements methodology that focuses on the business context of an organization. The proposed requirement elicitation approach is highly suited for the organizations that operate in the modern business environment. This approach overcomes several limitations in the existing BI requirement approaches. A case study is presented to support the proposed requirement elicitation approach for OBI system.Conclusion: This approach has several advantages like fast development, clear definition, classification of various types of requirements and proper linkage between the requirements without any loss or missing of gathering requirements. Finally, it is to conclude that the proposed approach acts as a one-pot synthesis of requirements elicitation for Operational BI system.Keywords: Business Context, Business, Intelligence, Business Networks, Protocols, Modern Business, Environment, Operational Business, Intelligence    Requirement,  Elicitation, Requirement, Methodology
