Abstract

Proposed are concepts for transforming a spreadsheet (or set of spreadsheets) into a knowledge base for analysis. Such a concept may convert a spreadsheet into a structured OLAP model that facilitates detailed analysis. For instance, by turning the semi-structured cell-based data representation into a structured OLAP model, it may be possible to perform analysis that would otherwise not be possible with the existing tools.
