ECOAR (Knowledge Extraction from Data Warehouses) was supported by IPP – Polytechnic Institute of Porto, during the year of 1997. In this project two technologies were combined: Executive Information Systems and Data Mining, in order to obtain knowledge from the information stored in a Data Warehouse. Real Retail data were used to test the combination of the 2 referred technologies.

Carlos Ramos was the project leader and the total budget was € 4000.
