The article suggests an approach to the development of an electronic demographic decision support system using data warehouse and interactive analytical processing OLAP. This makes it possible to conduct research on demographic processes at a high level and to support decision makers in the field of demography. Due to the presence of many types of demography and a large number of indicators, proposed in the article, a Data Mart Bus Architecture with Linked Dimensional Data Marts is proposed as a Data Warehouse architecture. The article also shows the practical application of this approach using two Data Marts as an example. Based on these Data Marts, OLAP-cubes are built. OLAP operations provide the ability to view cubes in various slices, as well as provide aggregate data.

The article proposes an approach to the development of an electronic demographic decision support system using technologies of Data Warehouse (DW) and Interactive Analytical Processing OLAP. This makes it possible to conduct high-level demographic research and provide support to decision-makers in demographic sphere. The article notes that demography is an interdisciplinary field of research and is defined as a complex science. Each industry of demography has many indicators. A sample list of these indicators is presented. The main characteristics of the DW, which should be taken into account when developing its architecture, are stated. Among these characteristics, one can find the main defining characteristics of Big Data — volume, velocity, variety, veracity, variability, visualization, value etc. For a more rational and efficient use of a large amount of information, taking into account its constant increase, to ensure the speed of execution of requests for a given system, it is proposed to use a Bus of Interconnected Data Marts (DM) as an architecture of DW. One of the advantages of using DM is that their use assumes distributed parallel data processing. This architecture allows for much faster results generation. It is based on the MapReduce distributed computing model and the Hadoop project. In addition, to effectively use large amounts of data, it is also proposed to use OLAP operations such as roll-up and drill-down, as well as fuzzy set theory, based on the technique of computing with words. The article also shows the practical application of interconnected DM. An OLAP cube is built on the basis of these DM. OLAP operations provide the ability to view cubes in different slices and provide aggregate data.

Data from multiple sources are loaded into the organization data warehouse for analysis. Since some OLAP queries are quite frequently fired on the warehouse data, their execution time is reduced by storing the queries and results in a relational database, referred as materialized query database (MQDB). If the tables, fields, functions, and criteria of input query and stored query are the same but the query criteria specified in WHERE or HAVING clause do not match, then they are considered non-synonymous to each other. In the present research, the results of non-synonymous queries are generated by reusing the existing stored results after applying UNION or MINUS operations on them. This will reduce the execution time of non-synonymous queries. For superset criteria values of input query, UNION operation is applied, and for subset values, MINUS operation is applied. Incremental result processing of existing stored results, if required, is performed using Data Marts.

Large-scale hospital information systems (HIS) generally consist of (i) online transaction processing (OLTP) and (ii) online analytical processing (OLAP) systems. Electronic medical records (EMR) are a major OLTP element. The data warehouse (DWH) assumes many important OLAP roles and maintains an institution’s medical care at a high level by providing EMR with the best practice cases available. This article focuses mainly on why OLTP and OLAP are needed and what roles the DWH plays, which means that the DWH has its own utilities and supplementary merits. The background of this discussion is closely related to the HIS at Nagasaki University Hospital introduced before the DWH is discussed.

Designing and building a Data Warehouse (DW), and associated OLAP cubes, are long processes, during which decision-maker requirements play an important role. But decision-makers are not OLAP experts and can find it difficult to deal with the concepts behind DW and OLAP. To support DW design in this context, we propose: (i) a new rapid prototyping methodology, integrating two different DM algorithms, to define dimension hierarchies according to decision-maker knowledge; (ii) a complete UML Profile, to define a DW schema that integrates both the DM algorithms; (iii) a mapping process to transform multidimensional schemata according to the results of the DM algorithms; (iv) a tool implementing the proposed methodology; (v) a full validation, based on a real case study concerning bird biodiversity. In conclusion, we confirm the rapidity and efficacy of our methodology and tool in providing a multidimensional schema to satisfy decision-maker analytical needs.

The data warehouse community has paid particular attention to the document warehouse (DocW) paradigm during the last two decades. However, some important issues related to the semantics are still pending and therefore need a deep research investigation. Indeed, the semantic exploitation of the DocW is not yet mature despite it representing a main concern for decision-makers. This paper aims to enhancing the multidimensional model called Diamond Document Warehouse Model with semantics aspects; in particular, it suggests semantic OLAP (on-line analytical processing) operators for querying the DocW.

Decision makers query enterprise information stored in Data Warehouses (DW) by using tools (such as On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) tools) which employ specific views or cubes from the corporate DW or Data Marts, based on multidimensional modelling. Since the information managed is critical, security constraints have to be correctly established in order to avoid unauthorized access. In previous work we defined a Model-Driven based approach for developing a secure DW repository by following a relational approach. Nevertheless, it is also important to define security constraints in the metadata layer that connects the DW repository with the OLAP tools; that is, over the same multidimensional structures that end users manage. This paper incorporates a proposal for developing secure OLAP applications within our previous approach: it improves a UML profile for conceptual modelling; it defines a logical metamodel for OLAP applications; and it defines and implements transformations from conceptual to logical models, as well as from logical models to secure implementation in a specific OLAP tool (SQL Server Analysis Services).

The enterprise data warehouse stores an enormous amount of data collected from multiple sources for analytical processing and strategic decision making. The analytical processing is done using online analytical processing (OLAP) queries where the performance in terms of result retrieval time is an important factor. The major existing approaches for retrieving results from a data warehouse are multidimensional data cubes and materialized views that incur more storage, processing, and maintenance costs. The present study strives to achieve a simpler and faster query result retrieval approach from data warehouse with reduced storage space and minimal maintenance cost. The execution time of frequent queries is saved in the present approach by storing their results for reuse when the query is fired next time. The executed OLAP queries are stored along with the query results and necessary metadata information in a relational database is referred as materialized query database (MQDB). The tables, fields, functions, relational operators, and criteria used in the input query are matched with those of stored query, and if they are found to be same, then the input query and the stored query are considered as a synonymous query. Further, the stored query is checked for incremental updates, and if no incremental updates are required, then the existing stored results are fetched from MQDB. On the other hand, if the stored query requires an incremental update of results, then the processing of only incremental result is considered from data marts. The performance of MQDB model is evaluated by comparing with the developed novel approach, and it is observed that, using MQDB, a significant reduction in query processing time is achieved as compared to the major existing approaches. The developed model will be useful for the organizations keeping their historical records in the data warehouse.
