DM: April 30 Presentation on Data Mining in Vienna, VA

[Dorothy Firsching]

Data Mining -- A Key to Competitive Intelligence

At the April 30th meeting of the Washington Chapter of the Independent
Computer Consultants Association (WICCA), Dr. Jen Q. Louie and Ms. 
Dorothy
Firsching of Nautilus Systems will introduce data mining and how it 
is being
used by today's leading companies to make them more competitive. 

As data marts and data warehouses become more common, and data quality
concerns are addressed, those repositories can be "mined" using a 
variety
of techniques.   Knowledge discovery in data (KDD) reveals trends and 
patterns
that no one had even thought to ask. This presentation will be an 
update and 
enhancement to the one given last fall to WICCA in Rockville, MD.

This meeting will be at the Marco Polo restaurant in Vienna, 
Virginia.  The
cost is
$20 for members and $30 for nonmembers, and includes dinner.  Please 
RSVP by
calling the WICCA hotline, (301) 469-5880. Doors open at 6:30 for 
drinks and
networking prior to dinner. Details, including directions, are 
available on
the WICCA web site, wicca.icca.org.
