Conceptual Model of the BIA Data Warehouse

Abstract

The present article delineates the primary conceptual model of a data warehouse system which is aimed for enterprise business impact analysis. Currently, since the model is in its preliminary stage, only the classification of critical business functions is present in the conceptual schema. Apart from the conceptual model, the specific business impact analysis activity is illustrated using the Business Object Relation Modelling approach, which is ideal for business process requirement analysis. The current conceptual schema will be used as a guide for constructing the future complete meta-model, as well as a logical schema regarding the specific business intelligence solution.
