automating multidimensional design from ontologies
This paper presents a new approach to automate the multidimensional design of Data Warehouses. In our approach we propose a semi-automatable method aimed to find the business multidimensional concepts from a domain ontology representing different and potentially heterogeneous data sources of our business domain. In short, our method identifies business multidimensional concepts from heterogeneous data sources having nothing in common but that they are all described by an ontology.
