A Textual Warehouse Approach: A Web Data Repository

Abstract

An enterprise memory must be able to be used as a basis for the processes of scientific or technical developments. Indeed, it was proven that information useful to these processes is not found solely in the operational bases of companies; it is also found in textual information and exchanged documents. For that reason, we propose the design and implementation of a documentary memory for business document warehouses. Its main characteristic is to allow the storage, retrieval, interrogation and analysis of information extracted from disseminated sources and, in particular, from the Web.
