DATA WAREHOUSE RESEARCH OPPORTUNITY Does your organization use a data warehouse? Are you interested in participating in a study of data warehouses? In return for your participation, YOU WILL RECEIVE A COPY OF THE STUDY RESULTS.

I am a computer science student at the University of North Carolina at Asheville. I am conducting a research project on the success of data warehouses. I hope to identify data warehouses that are successful and what makes them a success.

Printed below this message is a brief questionnaire. Please take a few minutes to answer the following questions on your organizations data warehouse. Your name and the name of your organization will be kept confidential.

Please return your questionnaire to me at the address below.
