Research Papers /
Business intelligence techniques (I have only small data...) [7]
Kevin,
thanx for ur response, i did not put lot of detail in my initial post,
But yes i am in a degree program, im doing MS in Software Engg. and the problem im talking about is my MS Thesis.
well my problem is that"
i have to survey the software industry(Software houses,graduate software engineers and faculty of various universities) in Pakistan . Aim is to find out that what type of "Generic and Specific skill sets " do graduate students(software engg. for my case) possess when they graduate from a universiry. then we will see that what are the required skill sets by software industry. research need is to align the industry's requirements with universities curriculam so that universities may produce/generate specific skill sets in graduate students by modifying their curriculam."now it is a simple kind of research. i want to add up some "
innovative factor" or some "
resarch element" so that each year, data get to be added and by applying some BI technique, i may be able to :
(1) show current trend of data
(2) predict future trend of dataAn Artificial intelligence(A.I) specialized teacher told me that i can not use some A.I technique as i would ONLY be having limited data i.e ; of ONE YEAR (coz i have to follow my deadline which is in november2011).
Data mining was another possible option, but it needs large amounts of data transactions. where as i have limited transactions..
Hope that now u have got the whole picture ...
NOW this is where i am stuck..
What do i do with that much limited amount of data? what kind of technique can i apply..
Plz help me out... :(
