Publication Open Access Recommending a Model to Forecast Sri Lanka Wholesale Price Index Using Big Data Analytics(IEEE, 2018-02-22) Thakshila, P. M. C; Asanka, P. P. G. DThe Whole Sale Price Index (WPI) is a main index, which is used to measure price variance before a product or service release to a consumer. WPI represents the basket of wholesale goods and services on market basket. Sri Lanka WPI is accumulated using Laspeyre's formula considering based year as 1974 and up till now not seasonally adjusted. Data collection, compilation, and Dissemination of WPI are done by Prices, Wedges, and Employment division of the Statistics Department of Central bank of Sri Lanka (CBSL) and releasing to public every month. Forecasting of WPI is necessary to understand the aid primary level economic impact of the country. Big data analysis and Data mining are using for data where it is hard to handle using traditional tools and techniques. Decision makers able to gain valuable insights analyzing that varied and rapidly changing data. Time series analysis compromise method for analyzing time series data in order to extract meaningful statistics and other characteristics of data. This review discusses the way to utilize big data analysis technology to systematically analyze time series based WPI data in Sri Lanka. The time series based forecast technologies ARIMA, ANN, VAR, Moving Average, AFARIMA etc. are reviewed based on previous findings. Based on the result will present the effective model to forecast WPIs in Sri Lanka and will critically evaluate selected WPIs. That selection will coordinate based on the weight and relationship to all items based WPI. WPI will compare with existing Sri Lankan Price Indices based on the relational factors.Publication Embargo A database optimization model with quantitative benchmark(IEEE, 2016-03-11) Murray, I; Jayakody, A; Herrmann, J; Lokuliyana, S; Kandawala, D. S. A; Nanayakkara, S. E. CQuery optimization and indexing have an immense impact on database optimization. This has been considered in many different perspectives which provide several different solutions in each case. The purpose of this paper is to primarily provide a comprehensive review and discussion of the core problems through the research on query optimization technology and indexing, based on a number of optimization techniques commonly used in the general approach of a query. A new database optimization model is designed and experiments show that this model can significantly reduce the amount of query execution time to improve the optimization efficiency. Regardless of research on the database optimization model, significant work has been done to comparatively evaluate three scenarios; non-optimized query, optimized query without following any optimization standard, and optimized query via proposed optimization model using the same experimental methodology. Further, this paper describes a benchmark that was developed specifically for the purpose of measuring the quantitative evaluations of the proposed database optimization model.
