This book investigates how data and information are transformed
into knowledge that supports decision-making processes. The
"information revolution" renders information a common product: it
is easily supplied, accumulated, processed and managed. In recent
years, the amount of data has been growing exponentially.
Traditional methods of data analysis rely primarily on slower, more
expensive manual investigation and analysis. These limitations make
the traditional methods impractical. This book provides an
alternative approach and presents a novel framework to advance data
analysis through the knowledge discovery process. This work borrows
ideas from related fields, such as Operations Research and
Information Theory. Grounded in these disciplines and formal
mathematical expressions, this work presents a comprehensive model
and corresponding design tools. Last, this book enables a rigorous
exploration of data analysis and knowledge discovery tools which
provide a roadmap to better decision-making.
