Abstract

Data Warehouse (DW) is defined as integration of heterogeneous data into multidimensional repository for providing decisional support. Requirement Analysis has played a main role in the development of DW which provides strategic information to the end-users. There are many approaches for elicitation of requirements in the DW. One of the approaches is Agent Goal Decision Information (AGDI) model. In this paper we have discussed about the Agent Goal Decision Information Model and illustrated it with the help of Library Management System.
