Analytical information system as a means of information support for organization and production system

Abstract

A fundamentally new approach to the implementation of information collection and analysis processes in the systems of operational planning and functional reliability management, based on the creation and application of analytical information systems (AIS), is proposed. The main purpose of such systems is the creation of information platforms in the interests of decision support systems (DSS - decision support system). Within the limits of AIS of the functional reliability management the creation of the unique mechanism which is development of integration OLAP- and ROLAP-technologies in the following directions is supposed: an operative change of structure (list) of the stored data and their interrelations; multistage access to the data and formation of flexible not planned queries for a sample of the required data in terms of the subject area; support of unique protocols of updating of a data storage. Due to the distributed nature of data storage and processing in AIS and the specifics of organizing large-scale data storages, the computing environment and telecommunications platform of AIS should be implemented as a local area network (LAN), equipped with telecommunications facilities for communication with external sources and consumers of information. It is advisable to form AIS architecture according to the principle of multilayer organization, distinguishing four main architectural layers: application layer; middleware layer; data layer; AIS platform.
