Analytics
Making sense of data
"Analytics is the discovery and communication of meaningful patterns in data."
Increasingly, businesses and other organisations are turning to
advanced analytics to learn more from their data. From market
segmentation/clustering analysis – to forecasting future sales,
political elections or web traffic – to spam email
detection, the use of analytics is wide ranging and rapidly growing as
a major trend of the 21st Century.
Software
