Information validity problems in OLAP systems
The paper addresses the notion of information validity, relevance and data source reliability as applied to the design, development and information updating in contemporary OLAP systems. Many up-to-date information systems employ a variety of external data sources but the reliability of these sources and data validity therein raise doubts. In addition, the data is continually changed and updated from the old to the latest, which needs to be accounted. The problem is a lack of unified system for qualitative and quantitative assessment of information attributes such as degrees of relevance and validity combined with data source reliability. On the other hand, there is an array of information attributes that can judge relevance and validity of information. The present study aimed to elaborate approaches to assessing information relevance and validity and data source reliability for an OLAP database system and propose units of measurement, algorithms and computational methods. The elaborated approaches will be further employed as algorithms and programs as part of the developed OLAP database system.
