Modeling-Centered Data Warehousing Learning

Abstract

Though data warehousing is widely recognized in the industry as the principal decision support system architecture and an integral part of the corporate information system, the majority of academic institutions in the US and world-wide have been slow in developing curriculums that reflect this. The authors examine the issues that have contributed to the lag in the coverage of data warehousing topics at universities and introduce methods, concepts and resources that can enable business educators to deal with these issues and conduct comprehensive, detailed, and meaningful coverage of data warehouse related topics.
