IRMAC Meeting Announcement:

Advanced Data Warehousing and Data Integration Design Tutorial

Quality by Design: Event Management "The Next Generation"

Organizations spend large amounts of money, time and human resources implementing data movement processes. However, after it is all said and done, the customers of the new data structures frequently are disappointed if not frustrated with the quality of the information. Defect correction in databases and data movement processes is frequently a trial-and-error, time consuming, and error prone process.

This presentation:

Describes practical methods and techniques to implement the Quality By Design Rule: "Capture Information About Defects & Events." Capturing details on processes, events and information defects makes defect correction possible and efficient
Describes additional capabilities to maintain information stewards involved in the identification and implementation of data movement processes and databases "data controls" and to keep them informed on information defects they are interested in.
