Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Data warehouse: It is a large collection of data which is further used by companies for decision making process of management. The data collection is subject-oriented, integrated, time-variant and non-updateable.
Data mart: A data warehouse which is limited in scope is called data mart. The data stored in data warehouse is selected and summarized using extract, transform and load process.
Reconciled data: It is detailed and current data which act as single source for all decision support system. This type of data is stored for enterprise data warehouse and operational data store.
Derived data: Data which is being extracted, formatted and segregated for end-user decision support application is known as derived data.
Enterprise data warehouse: It is a centralized, integrated data warehouse which act as the control point and only source for all data which is being made available to end user for decision making.
Real-time data warehouse: It is a type of data warehouse which stores data related to transaction in near real time feeds from system of records. It can analyze data and control business rules in near real time so that appropriate actions can be taken as per current business events. It typically stores moderate size
Star schema: It is a database design where in dimensional data is separated from fact or event data. It is simplest type of data warehouse schema. It is called star schema as it is in the shape of start and is similar to relational model where fact table is represented at the center and multiple dimensional table are connected to the center fact table.
Snowflake schema: It is an extension to star schema where dimensional tables are normalized into several related tables. Normalization of dimensional tables splits these table into multiple tables and the schema diagram resemble that of snowflake.
Grain: Grain is the description of level of details for a fact table. For example, suppose a fact table stores information related to sales of specific product in various locations on a daily basis. Then grain for this fact table will be “information of product sale by location and by day”
Conformed dimension: It is a dimension in which multiple dimension tables which are associated with multiple fact tables has same business meaning and primary key with each fact table.

Java Graphics
(Bonus
In this lab, we'll be practicing what we learned about GUIs, and Mouse events. You will need to
implement the following:
A GUI with a drawing panel. We can click in this panel, and you will capture those clicks as a
Point (see java.awt.Point) in a PointCollection class (you need to build this).
The points need to be represented by circles.
Below the drawing panel, you will need 5 buttons:
O
о
о
○
An input button to register your mouse to the drawing panel.
A show button to paint the points in your collection on the drawing panel.
A button to shift all the points to the left by 50 pixels.
The x position of the points is not allowed to go below zero.
Another button to shift all the points to the right 50 pixels.
"
The x position of the points cannot go further than the
You can implement this GUI in any way you choose. I suggest using the BorderLayout for a panel
containing the buttons, and a GridLayout to hold the drawing panel and button panels.
Regardless of how…

You must have a main function and a max function. The function int main() will declare an array with the values {12, 100, 10, 1000, 20, 5}. This array will be passed to the max function. The function int max() will perform the necessary operations to find the largest element of the array. After max () is finished, have main () print the largest value and its index in the array. Do not hard code your solution! If we test your code with different array values, we should still get the correct output.
