Study of various data mining techniques

Abstract

The advent of computing technology has significantly influenced our lives and two major impacts of this effect are Business Data Processing and Scientific Computing. During the initial years of the development of computer techniques for business, computer professionals were concerned with designing files to store the data so that information could be efficiently retrieved. There were restrictions on storage size for storing data and on speed of accessing the data. Needless to say, the activity was restricted to a very few, highly qualified professionals. Then came the era when the task was simplified by a DBMS [1]. The responsibilities of intricate tasks, such as declarative aspects of the program were passed on to the database administrator and the user could pose his query in simpler languages such as query languages.
