Analysis / Modeling Applications

Analysis/modeling applications fall roughly into two categories:

  1. those attempting to deduce meaningful structure from probabilistic statistical data, and
  2. those attempting to draw actionable conclusions from such data.
An example of the first would be to deduce the structure of a molecular pathway critical to the function of a candidate cancer drug from microarray expression data in pharmacogenomics. An example of the second would be to decide how to structure a financial hedge that balances the risk associated with a block of investments in financial analytics.

Click on any of the vertical markets to the left to see a list of analysis/modeling applications in that market segment, plus a matrix of which features of this new generation of data management are of most importance to each application.

We have culled out four features of DBMS 3.0™ to highlight:

We have used a 'Consumer-Reports' style presentation to indicate which features of the DBMS are of most importance to each application: S|P|A|R

As you review the applications you will note that for many applications it is the semantic support that is key. For other applications it is a combination of analysis and probabilistic data. For still others it may be the combination of analysis and class-specific representations.
