IBM Commercial Development on Data Mining Tools

9211

Cray Research Inc and IBM introduce their first massively parallel processing (MPP) products, code-named the Cray T3D, Some observers remain conservative about the systems' capabilities, however. The computers will target decision support applications and 'data mining,' which uses the raw horsepower of an MPP system to look at huge, unstructured sets for market research.

9312

Research collaboration: IBM & FermiLab using IBM Powerparallel system for data access & data mining research. Collaboration will transfer technology discoveries to commercial market.

9504

IBM's AS/400 minicomputer could become an excellent platform for data warehousing or data mining in the future if the company could improve its client/server capabilities and improve its direct access storage device (Dasd) capacity

9510

IBM's AS/400 Div is developing a data warehouse/data mining software category for its Client Series program that lists recommended AS/400-optimized applications from IBM and third parties.

9601

IBM has formed the Worldwide Decision Support Solutions (WDSS) organization to focus on decision support and data mining applications. The market for decision support systems is expected to reach $30 billion by 2000 because of recent trends in which organizations are enabling knowledge workers with access to mission-critical data. WDSS will focus on organizations that have at least 100GB of data that needs to be managed. Target industries include finance, healthcare, insurance, retail and telecommunications.

9602

The research behind Deep Blue is designed to apply parallel processing to problems in finance, air traffic control, pharmacology and data mining.

9604

Silicon Graphics and IBM recently announced data mining plans designed to assist companies in analyzing their businesses…, SGI also recently unveiled its Challenge Array clustering technology, which facilitates high-performance processing of mining applications on its Challenge enterprise servers. Independent of SGI, IBM announced partnerships with Andyne Computing, Cognos, Brio Technology and Business Objects in relation to its own data-mining strategy.

A survey of users of IBM's midrange systems indicates that a majority of such systems are configured with basic report writing and DBMS utilities. However, technologies such as online analytical processing (OLAP), data mining and data warehousing tools have penetrated the midrange systems market only minimally. Seventy-two percent of respondents are aware of such technologies, and 67% intend to implement these technologies in the future. IBM is developing an integrated suite of AS/400 data mining programs for release in summer 1996, and company officials estimate that the improved capabilities of the applications will increase user implementation of OLAP and data mining.

9606

IBM's Worldwide Decision Support Solutions Division plans a range of services designed to bring the benefits of data mining to a wide audience. The contemplated InfoMining services will be comprised of a Web-enabled version of the Intelligent Miner decision support software introduced by IBM in Apr 1996

9606

IBM recently announced plans to introduce a new data-mining service to offset the cost of finding data for small and midsize companies lacking sophisticated computer resources. Companies send to IBM computer tapes with data to be processed. IBM then removes duplicate records and analyzes the data.

9608

IBM plans to introduce vertical market data mining applications for the banking and telecommunications industries in fall 1996

9702

IBM missing marketing chances by linking Intelilgent Miner data

9702

IBM is planning to add a data mining algorithm to Lotus Notes, enhancing the selectivity of messaging applications.

9704

IBM is introducing a new data warehouse tool code named Target, geared for the finance industry. Target combines applications for divining market trends with data mining capabilities. Included in Target is IBM's IntelligentMiner data mining tool as well as a Web-enabled data mining application called the Customer Discovery, which is used for trending and data analysis.

9704

Data mining and data warehousing have created a demand for parallel processors that are highly scalable and capable of handling terabytes worth of data. IBM is determined to meet that need by providing its AS/400 with the same level of parallel portions available on the RS/6000 SP MPP.

9704

Object-relational databases from Informix, IBM and Oracle that scale, run on multiple platforms and recognize disparate data types are ideal foundations for data mining and data warehousing applications for VARs

9704

IBM has announced a suite of data-discovery tools and services for data mining and Web-site marketing. The net.Mining package includes such software as Surf-Aid, which helps Web site managers better determine who is accessing their sites and how to create a structure that accommodates user needs. Another key component is text.Mining, which provides non-structured data analysis and enhanced search capabilities.

9705

IBM plans to release two products to analyze data collected from World Wide Web sites, in addition to its Intelligent Miner product which is already in the market. . The process involves complex algorithms that use artificial intelligence techniques. The new area of data mining follows techniques that banks and the telecommunications industry have been using for many years for tackling specific problems.

9706

IBM research staff member Dr. Inderpal S. Bhandari helped develop IBM's Advanced Scout data-mining software for the National Basketball Association (NBA).

9708

IBM has developed a data mining application espically for the NBA called Advanced Scout…, Advanced Scout has increase the value of the NBA teams that use it

9708

IBM boosts charting in data-mining tool: Java front-end interface tool allows users to share studies.

9710

Mainframe mining. (IBM plans new consulting service) (Company Business and Marketing)

9711

IBM announces the $2 million DecisionEdge for Utilities, a hardware and software package for data warehousing at public utilities,.., The company debuted the Complete Warehouse for Fraud Detection, a $500,000 hardware/software combination that includes a NUMA-Q server. It detects fraud using the Knowledge Discovery in Databases software.
