Abstract

In this work we propose, for an environment where multidimensional queries are made over multiple Data Marts, techniques for providing the user with quality information about the retrieved data. This meta-information behaves as an added value over the obtained information or as an additional element to take into account during the proposition of the queries. The quality properties considered are freshness, availability and accuracy. We provide a set of formulas that allow estimating or calculating the values of these properties, for the result of any multidimensional operation of a predefined basic set.
