Forecasting & Optimization

"The increased proliferation of interactive visualization tools, more integrated data mining and packaged analytic applications that encapsulate the complexity of using sophisticated Bl analysis tools from business users, are all pushing the power of analysis into the hands of a larger numbei of users than ever before. Moreover, this data and Gartner inquiries suggest that there is an increasing need for more accurate forecasts and optimized business processes, and to identify leading versus lagging indicators." (Gartner 2011)
