What can it do? ADINA provides high-level, real-time, and personalized ad-hoc access to both new and legacy data sources. ADINA dynamically integrates data sources by managing their interrelationships. Thus, both users and data sources maintain their autonomy because they are insulated from the structures and interrelationships of the data environment. ADINA breaks traditional stovepipes. Potential applications:
E-Commerce Matching buyers and sellers Cross-selling Up-selling Product comparison Finance/Accounting Forecasting Budgeting Cost and profitability analysis Financial consolidation   (general ledgers, mergers, etc.) Improved underwriting Risk management Fraud detection Shareholder value analysis		Business Corporate data integration Enterprise systems Market analysis Trend analysis Workforce planning and optimization Site selection Labor scheduling Customer retention Territory analysis Manufacturing Demand planning Forecasting Troubleshooting Problem prediction Reliability Quality control
