Towards a Synergistic Combination of Web-Based and Data-Driven Decision Support Systems via Linguistic Data Summaries

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 3528))

Abstract

We show how to combine the concepts of a Web based and a dta-driven decision support system as an effective and efficient hybrid solution. We advocate the use of linguistic database summaries, within the proposed DSS framework, for grasping the essence of large sets of data. We present an implementation for a computer retailer.
