Agent-based design of business intelligence system architecture
Agent-based design of business intelligence system architecture

Summary/Abstract: Business intelligence is a business management term used to describe applications and technologies which are used to gather, provide access to, and analyse data and information about the organization, to help make better business decisions. The multi-agent approach provides a feasible solution for construction of the business intelligence system. This paper firstly briefly introduces the traditional business intelligence architecting principles and multi-agent approach. Secondly, a design of business intelligence system architecture is proposed, which is composed of the system framework, agent description and system workflow. This design allows to reduce effectively the construction costs of business intelligence systems and to extend the applied scope of business intelligence by minimizing the amount of data transfer and data storage. Using the predictive functionality of the system can bring a significant competitive advantage of business units. The paper presents a new approach for business intelligence architecture modelling, representing an extension over existing systems.
