TECHNOLOGY BRIEFINGS
CMU Research Corporation (CMU-RC) holds
half-day marketing oriented events to learn about new technologies and
capabilities available in the field of Business Intelligence (BI).
During these unique events, our goal is to raise your awareness about
the state-of-the-art capabilities CMU-RC, SAS, IBM, and ESRI provide.
This is also a great chance for you to quickly discover and learn about
the power that comes by linking tools from multiple vendors in these
areas: the scalability of BI platforms, enterprise integration of BI
solutions, spatial analysis, and the integration of these tools to
support complex analytics. Additionally, your organization may be
dealing with many of these matters: statistical analysis, text mining
for relevant information, handling the entire business intelligence
process, exploiting geographical information (census, weather data, and
demographic information of customer base), data mining, predictive
analytics, and the list goes on. Attending these events will arm
you with the necessary information on how to move forward.
