Generating Sample Data for Mining and Warehousing

  • Conference paper
BIS ’99

Abstract

Generating representative sample data for data warehouses for testing, benchmarking and presentation purposes, can be seen as a very complex task. For the generation of sample data, it is important to precisely describe the requirements and properties of the data to be represented. We present in this paper an approach for generating sample data for OLAP data warehouses.
