Modelling and Reasoning Issues in SemCockpit (Keynote Talk)

Description

SemCockpit is an ontology-driven, interactive business intelligence (BI) tool for comparative data analysis. It is developed in a collaborative research project - supported by the Austrian Ministry of Transport, Innovation, and Technology - by researchers from academia and BI industry as well as prospective users from public health insurers. SemCockpit builds on and utilises modelling and reasoning techniques from knowledge-based systems, ontology engineering, and data warehousing to intelligently support the business analyst in her or his analysis task. It allows to complement dimension and fact data by concept definitions capturing relevant business terms and to use these in the definition of measures and scores, to use domain ontologies as semantic dimensions, to represent analysis processes by BI analysis graphs, and to capture and share previous insights through judgment rules. In the talk, I give a general overview of SemCockpit and focus on modelling and reasoning issues not addressed in other specific talks by the SemCockpit team at ER 2012 conference and MORE-BI workshop.
